Ariana Grande was spotted sneaking out through the stage door of a Broadway theater after watching her boyfriend Ethan Slater perform in the show Monty Python’s Spamalot.
Slater is currently starring in the revival of the Tony Award-winning musical which is running at the St. James Theatre. The show is scheduled to open following several weeks of previews, on November 16.
The platinum-selling recording artist and upcoming Wicked movie co-star, 31, was seen leaving the production and looking particularly loved up as she kept her focus on Slater walking backwards towards her waiting car.
It was a smooth exit as she walked across the sidewalk from the door to the theater towards a waiting car in a full length black puffer jacket.
On this occasion there was no sign of any of the usual hoards of excited fans who often mob her.
Grande has been spotted at the production several times and a couple of weeks ago was seen to have got into the Spamalot spirit dressing up in medieval robes and a paper crown.
On that occasion she had been sitting in the audience and was seen carrying the show’s Playbill as she walked to her waiting limo.
It was first reported back in July that Grande and Slater were dating, amid her divorce from Dalton Gomez, 28, and his from wife Lilly, 29. Grande’s divorce was finalized on October 6.
Grande and Slater were last seen having a romantic dinner at Mandarin Oriental hotel’s MO Lounge in Manhattan last month.
In October, it was reported that the loved up couple had taken their relationship to the next level, with the Dangerous Woman singer now living with her Wicked co-star in New York City, as he performs in the show.
The pair met in December 2022 in the UK on the set of the film adaptation of the smash-hit Broadway musical Wicked, in which Grande plays Glinda – the good witch – alongside Slater as munchkin Boq.
Both couples announced they had split within a few days of each other back in July, with Ariana announcing her separation from Dalton just three days before confirming her new relationship with Ethan, who then filed for divorce from Lilly.
He cited irreconcilable differences and asked for joint custody of their newborn son.
Lilly Jay has since damned Grande in a series of disparaging interviews, telling Page Six the songstress is ‘Not a girl’s girl’ and adding blisteringly that ‘My family is just collateral damage’ to her.
