Ariana Grande and her new alleged boyfriend, Ethan Slater have been spotted out and about for the first time since their respective divorce filings.

The pair were papped on a date together at Walt Disney World.

According to TMZ, the two new lovers were seen strolling through the theme park in Orlando, holding hands, wearing baseball hats and hoodies…not the best attempt at trying to keep things on the DL!

The pair were followed by some friends and family as they soaked up the Disney magic on a private guided tour of the park.

The Thank You, Next songstress, aged 30 and her now ex, Dalton Gomez aged 28, officially filed for divorce earlier this month, after two years of being married.

The pair had signed a prenup before their marriage back in 2021. An inside source reported to TMZ that allegedly “Ariana will cut Dalton a check” and that will be the end of their short-lived fairy tale.

Grande’s Wicked co-star, Ethan Slater – best known for his Broadway portrayal of SpongeBob – has also separated from his wife, Lilly Jay, with whom he shares a child.

The high school sweethearts had filed for divorce on July 28th of this year, just five years after tying the knot in 2018.

Rumours have been flying that Ariana’s and Ethan’s alleged budding romance has some correspondence to their individual separations.

While there has been no reason listed for Ethan’s Divorce filing, his ex, Lilly Jay revealed to Page Six that “[Ariana’s] the story, really. Not a girl’s girl… My family is just collateral damage.” Ouch.

This has left fans with the impression that Ariana and Ethan have likely been keeping their relationship lowkey since the news of their divorces was announced.

However, their recent failed endeavour at keeping things private in Disneyland has people speculating that there may be truth behind the suspicions, and that this love affair may have been the cause of all the heartbreak and controversy it spiked.
