After weeks of breakup rumors and a noticeable drop in public appearances, Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater have quietly found their way back to each other, according to multiple sources. Insiders say the couple briefly split before reuniting, and Slater’s recent cozy holiday posts were not accidental.
Ethan Slater is more attentive now after reuniting with Ariana Grande, claims source
After breakup speculations for several weeks, Ethan Slater and Ariana Grande seem to have finally reunited. “Ethan is working overtime to save this relationship,” one source explained to Rob Shuter. “He’s attentive, available, and trying very hard to prove himself.”
Friends point out that the renewed effort stands in sharp contrast to his past. Slater previously exited his marriage to his then-pregnant wife as his relationship with Grande began. “That’s what people can’t get past,” a source says. “He fought for Ariana — but didn’t fight at all for his family.”
Sources say the split rattled Slater more than it did Grande. While she stepped back and redirected her focus toward work and close friendships, Slater reportedly doubled down, determined not to lose her. “He knows how this looks,” one insider said. “And he’s terrified of being disposable.”
People close to Ariana remain doubtful that the reunion will last. Insiders say the relationship remains fragile behind the scenes, saying, “This pattern is familiar. High intensity, emotional retreat, reconciliation — and then burnout. It’s happened before.” One source said, “They’re together, but no one’s betting on forever.” For now, the focus stays on soft lighting, holiday smiles, and carefully curated togetherness — even as some believe the clock may already be ticking.
The “Wicked” co-stars played down their romance while promoting the musical sequel, prompting speculation that their two-year relationship ended. However, Slater recently shared several photos of Grande on Instagram Stories, which shut down breakup rumors. The singer appeared relaxed as she lounged on a couch, cuddling a small brown dog while wearing a chic black turtleneck and matching pants. She pulled her hair back into a bun with a white headband and smiled at the camera that she later reposted on her own Instagram.
