Ariana Grande & Ethan Slater’s Rare SAG Awards Love Snap!

BBG News

Ariana Grande posted a heartwarming photo featuring herself and her partner Ethan Slater, reminiscing about cherished moments from the 2025 SAG Awards.

Yesterday, on my Instagram, I shared a series of photos on a Tuesday, one of which showcased an intentionally overexposed camera effect. In this photo, you’ll find me snuggled up with my partner, who’s 32 years old.

In an unusual display at the award ceremony, my eyes locked onto this peculiar duo who exchanged a distinctly odd greeting. Later, a genuine snapshot captured them huddled together, with their foreheads gently touching, a moment of intimacy that spoke volumes.

Initially, her star’s post showcased a captivating close-up of her wearing a breathtaking pink Loewe gown, followed by her playfully blowing a kiss towards the camera.

Subsequently, she posted a video and an elegant picture on the red carpet where she was striking poses, along with another snapshot highlighting her beautiful flowery dress.

A different photo captured her alongside Fran Drescher, a figure who assumed presidency of the Screen Actors Guild – American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) union in 2021, as well as Duncan Crabtree-Ireland, the current executive director of SAG-AFTRA.

A black and white snap saw her whispering something into Wicked co-star Cynthia Erivo’s ear. 

Apart from that, she was also photographed alongside iconic actors like Isabella Rossellini, Ralph Fiennes, and Kerry Washington from the series Scandal.

In her post, she expressed gratitude to the Screen Actors Guild Awards and her SAG-AFTRA family, stating that she loves them. She also thanked Loewe, Jonathan Anderson, and Ralph Fiennes, expressing love for each of them as well.

Ariana raised eyebrows after greeting her boyfriend Ethan with a handshake at the awards ceremony.

Following the choice of the pair to stroll down the red carpet individually, some social media users showed perplexity regarding the interaction, an exchange usually occurring among individuals meeting each other for the first time or in a formal setting.

As an over-the-moon fan, I can’t help but notice that it seems like these two celebrities, who once ignited the screens with their passionate displays, have begun to appear more like office mates. This shift occurred after Lilly Jay, his ex, spoke out about the collapse of their relationship and his high-profile romance.

As twilight descended, I found myself witnessing an enchanting display of affection between two souls deeply connected. They were lost in their own world, gazing tenderly into each other’s eyes. In a natural gesture of closeness, she gently encircled him with her arm, underscoring the bond they shared.

At some point during their stroll, he switched into defensive partner stance, subtly shielding his companion from overly close encounters with others.

During the awards ceremony, as the people around them started to press in, the actor showed worry and advised the singer of God is a Woman to remain near him for safety.

The tender moment was captured in a short clip that was shared by the Instagram account Deuxmoi.

The video displayed Ethan quietly speaking to Ariana while he held her hand, guiding her gracefully among the crowd.

According to Nicola Hickling from LipReader, it seemed as though he advised Ariana Grande to remain close and stay with the group around him because they were causing him to be pushed.

Ariana’s slim figure raised concerns among fans once more, as she appeared noticeably slender at the SAG Awards.

The actress up for Best Supporting Actress, known for her villainous roles, elegantly walked the red carpet in a strapless flowery dress that accentuated her strikingly slender figure.

Concerned followers expressed their worries on X, with one fan urgently pleading for the singer’s family or close associates to take action.

It seems Ariana Grande isn’t doing well, based on her recent appearance. She appears to be very thin and her speech is slow. I’m genuinely concerned about her.

I wish Ariana is in good health. I also hope she can add some pounds, in a balanced and healthy way. It’s important for women to appreciate their bodies without resorting to extreme dieting. One day, I aspire to see a world where women are perceived beautiful at a healthy weight, not just when they’re thin to the point of being unhealthy.

Ariana and Ethan became well-known for their romance, blossoming during the filming of the movie version of the popular Broadway play, Wicked.

In July 2023, news emerged about their romantic relationship, which came to light only a few days following reports that Ariana Grande had parted ways with her previous spouse, Dalton Gomez.

The romantic connection between them sparked significant controversy on social media platforms, primarily due to rumors suggesting that it started during the time when the actor was still married to his ex-spouse, who had given birth to their child just a year before.

According to a source, Ariana spent time with Ethan’s spouse Lilly, as well as their baby, on the film set on numerous occasions, prior to the news breaking about her romantic involvement with her co-star.

According to a source, Lilly was seen spending numerous occasions with Ethan and Ariana. It’s been reported that Ariana had the chance to meet their newborn and even held him.

In London, they shared meals, and Ariana confided in Lily that she aspired to become a mother someday and was eager to begin her family.

Ariana and Ethan, who claimed their romantic connection came about following the end of their previous relationships, have maintained a solid bond since then. It’s also rumored that they decided to live together under one roof.

In December, his ex-wife shared her struggle with feeling trapped by the sadness of seeing Slater grow closer to his previous TV partner.

Lily, aged 32, openly expressed her sorrow over seeing her former spouse prosperously promoting Wicked globally alongside the woman he abandoned her for. She described this situation as a deeply painful echo of her marriage’s public demise.

She disclosed that they had relocated to Britain together with their newborn child to assist Ethan during the filming of Wicked. Despite being high school sweethearts, he eventually left her for Ariana.

In her writing, Lilly shared that she, along with her husband and our two-month-old baby, boldly made a move to another country to further his career. As I navigated through the enchantment and routine of new parenthood, I didn’t grasp the widening gap between us.

As I pen down my thoughts in an essay for The Cut, I, a clinical psychologist and proud mom to our vibrant two-year-old, delve into the journey of living solo and the conclusion of a six-year marital chapter shared with Slater.

Lily confessed that there are times when the reminders of a film linked to the most sorrowful days of her life cast a shadow. Additionally, she mentioned that while soothing their child to sleep for extended periods, she is also grappling with the reality and public fallout of her marriage’s sudden collapse.

She stated that just as nobody enters into marriage anticipating divorce, so too is it unlikely that one would step onto a plane with the expectation of it crashing.

As a lifestyle advisor, I must confess that I hadn’t envisioned myself going through a divorce. It was particularly unexpected, given the recent arrival of my precious little one and amidst the glare of my ex-spouse embarking on a high-profile relationship with a celebrated figure.

For several months, Ethan and Ariana have graced headlines globally due to their appearances on red carpets, promoting the highly anticipated film Wicked, which is considered one of the most significant movies of 2024.

Meanwhile Lily, who was married to Ethan between 2018 and 2024, is bringing up their toddler.

She wrote: ‘Days with my son are sunny.’

‘Through motherhood, I’ve discovered that it consumes your time yet leaves your thoughts untouched. As I spend countless hours soothing my child to sleep, pushing his pram, and watching him grip a crayon with his tiny, sweaty hands, I am also tirelessly working on my personal endeavor – coming to terms with the sudden public collapse of my marriage.’

‘This, I tell myself, is nothing to be ashamed of and nothing to hide.’
