**Ariana Grande** and **Ethan Slater** have been quietly broken up for several months … TMZ has learned.
Sources close to the former couple tell TMZ … the split is amicable and the two still remain friends and are very supportive of one another. We’re told they gave the breakup careful consideration but ultimately decided to end the romantic relationship.
Our sources tell us Ariana’s new album was not at all inspired by the breakup, nor is the music about her relationship with Ethan.

I literally just saw her in public and tried to give her my condolences over the split and she told me to ‘mind your own business you old fuck’.
Still was pretty cool to see her irl but still.

HA. I’m not the slightest bit surprised. As a former theatre kid myself they were the textbook definition of a showmance.

They look like they could be related holy shit.

Was that worth him destroying his marriage over?

Hope leaving your family was worth it.
I’m guessing Ariana finally realised he looks like her brother.

You know what they say. It’s better to have cheated on your wife and blow up your family shortly after your child is born to be Ariana Grande’s fling and lost than never to have done that all.

Is anyone genuinely surprised tho
This guy left his wife who recently had their kid to be with a superstar. That relationship’s foundation was rotten. Weren’t there also rumours that he cheated on his then-wife with Ariana? Like Jesus Christ.

I thought they quietly split during the Wicked 2 era. I thought this was already known and they just hadn’t made it a thing.

Relationships that start in betrayal can only✨ defy gravity ✨ for so long.

Which married dude is next?

I didnt even know they were together. I figured she dropped him when his family fell apart publicly and everyone started calling her a homewrecker.

So you’re saying there’s a chance she can save Aaron Taylor-Johnson now?

They literally soft launched this over 6 months ago. Had to wait till Wicked tour and Audrey Hepburn play was over.

Oh no. Who could’ve seen this coming aside from literally anyone with a double digit or higher IQ

I am so shocked. I thought this love would last until the end of time. Now, Ariana will have to find someone else’s husband to poach.

Does she have another married man on her list?

I wonder if ultimately he will think it was worth destroying his marriage to someone who actually loved him and missing out on several of the most precious months of his child’s life to bang Ariana Grande for a few months.
And no, no one will ever convince me they haven’t been broken up/separated for much longer than they will tell us lol.

This man really broke up his family for a fling. Very embarrassing. Ariana is known for doing this, and yet, he threw everything away. His exwife seems like a wonderful woman. Hope she is well. I have to believe Ariana is deeply unhappy in some way because only unhappy people would find attached men desirable. Strange all around. I fear they stayed together to make the relationship a tad more respectable.

Well I for one am *shocked*. Hope it was worth it.
