Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater Face Relationship Struggles Amid Wicked Tour

Los Angeles, CA – Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater are reportedly experiencing tension in their relationship as they prepare to kick off the promotional tour for their upcoming film, Wicked: For Good. Sources close to the couple suggest that the pressures of their busy schedules are straining their connection.

According to an insider, Slater is feeling overwhelmed as he navigates time between Grande and co-parenting his son with ex-wife Lilly Jay. The source said, “He loves her, but he’s drowning in the circus of her life.” Slater is struggling to keep pace with Grande’s demanding lifestyle as they prepare for the tour.

The couple, who began their relationship on the set of Wicked nearly two years ago, both left long-term relationships to be together. Grande ended her marriage to realtor Dalton Gomez, while Slater separated from Jay. Their romance faced scrutiny from fans and media, labeling them as “homewreckers.” Additionally, Jay wrote a viral essay expressing her feelings about losing Slater to a Broadway star.

Despite these challenges, Slater has shown support for Grande on social media. He congratulated her following her win at the Video Music Awards last month. They were last publicly seen together in April at a Little Shop of Horrors event, but the pressure of the upcoming tour appears to be weighing on Slater.

Grande, who is set to reprise her role as Glinda in Wicked: For Good on November 21, recently shared heartwarming moments on social media, providing an insight into her life amid the ongoing drama. However, insiders are noticing that the couple’s relationship may be at a crossroads, with the likelihood of romantic discord looming as they step into the spotlight together.
