Ariana Grande has discussed how her relationship with Ethan Slater has drawn negative attention from the media.
On February 26, the pop star had a comprehensive video interview with The Zach Sang Show. Zach Sang, the host, said to Grande that “people have crafted their own narratives” about her personal life, including the September 2023 divorce from her ex-husband, Dalton Gomez and the subsequent affair with her ‘Wicked’ co-star, Ethan Slater.
Grande replied,
“Like, am I cr@zy? Don’t we know this? We selectively remember that this is what the tabloids do to people, especially women, based on whether or not we like the person. We selectively leave space for humanness, for nuance. They don’t leave space for that – well, they do for their friends and their family, it’s selective. I feel like we don’t need to go into any specifics. But of course, there’s an insatiable frustration, inexplicable, hellish feeling with watching people misunderstand the people you love, and you and anything.”

Recall that over the past year, numerous rumours have surfaced regarding Grande’s personal and romantic life. People disclosed that the singer began seeing Slater, just a few days after it was announced in July 2023 that she and her ex-husband, Dalton Gomez were getting a divorce after two years of marriage.

It was alleged that as at the time Slater and Grande began dating, Slater and his wife, Lilly Jay, were no longer together. The ex-couple, who tied the knot in 2018, have a newborn boy.
Nevertheless, the singer has come under a lot of criticism and chastisement for allegedly ‘starting an affair’ with a man while he was still married.
Ariana Grande addressed some of these rumors on her new song, ‘Yes, and?’.
