Ariana Grande has openly addressed the negativity she faces online regarding her relationship with Ethan Slater.
During her recent appearance on the Zach Sang Show podcast, the 30-year-old singer described the backlash as an “insatiable frustration” and a “hellish” experience, highlighting the difficulties of public scrutiny over her personal life.
Grande’s remarks follow the swirl of speculation and rumors about her romantic involvement with Slater, her co-star in “Wicked”.
This speculation was intensified by the timing of their respective divorces; Grande from Dalton Gomez and Slater from Lilly Jay, with whom he has a son.
Despite the controversy, sources informed Us Weekly that Grande and Slater’s relationship began only after their separation from their previous partners.
An update on Slater’s divorce proceedings was shared, indicating that while it has not been finalized, he is currently in the “meditation phase” of the process.
