The couple, who met while filming the musical adaptation, arrived together, showcasing their stylish coordination and deepening romance.<\/p>\n<p>Grande, 31, turned heads in a stunning head-to-toe pink outfit, a clear nod to her character Glinda. She wore a long-sleeved polo top paired with a pleated skirt, accentuating her whimsical and bright persona. Completing her look, Grande accessorized with a pink Versace trunk shoulder bag and a Burberry bowling bag, along with Burberry checked pumps, embodying the essence of her character both on and off the screen.<\/p>\n<p>Her boyfriend, Slater, 32, opted for a relaxed look, donning a brown sweater and navy blue pants, complemented by sneakers. The couple was joined by their <em>Wicked<\/em> co-stars, Cynthia Erivo and Marissa Bode, who brought their own flair to the event. Erivo, 37, honored her character Elphaba with a striking green ensemble, complete with a Baker Boy cap and bomber jacket dress, along with elegant gold drop earrings.<\/p>\n<p>The public outing comes after Grande and Slater confirmed their relationship in July 2023, following Grande\u2019s separation from her ex-husband, Dalton Gomez, and Slater\u2019s split from his ex-wife, Lilly Jay, with whom he shares a 2-year-old son. Their romance has flourished since their initial connection on the set of <em>Wicked<\/em>, and this premiere marks another milestone in their journey together.<\/p>\n<p>In a recent interview with <em>GQ<\/em>, Slater expressed his pride in Grande\u2019s performance in <em>Wicked<\/em>, stating, \u201cI\u2019m just really, really proud of Ari and the work she\u2019s done on this. She\u2019s poured herself into it.\u201d He emphasized his excitement for audiences to witness her talent, adding, \u201cI\u2019m really proud that I got to be there for that part of it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, Slater also touched on the challenges that come with their relationship being in the public eye. \u201cI think there was something that was really difficult about things in your private life being commented on and looked at by the public,\u201d he shared. He acknowledged the impact of social media scrutiny but remained focused on the people in their lives who matter most, saying, \u201cI am really focused on the real people in my life, who those things affect, and doing right by every real person and not the Twitter people who comment on it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As the couple continues to navigate their burgeoning relationship amidst the excitement surrounding <em>Wicked<\/em>, fans are eagerly anticipating both the film\u2019s release and the evolution of their love story. With Grande\u2019s undeniable talent and Slater\u2019s support, they are poised to make a lasting impression on the entertainment industry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater arrived in Sydney, arm-in-arm, for the highly anticipated premiere of their film Wicked on November 2. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":434,"featured_media":58396,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[67],"tags":[254,18995,20172,1143,22259,20171,579,21553,22258,9941],"class_list":["post-58393","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-celebrity-news","tag-ariana-grande","tag-celebrity-news","tag-elphaba","tag-ethan-slater","tag-film-premiere","tag-glinda","tag-red-carpet","tag-relationship-news","tag-sydney-premiere","tag-wicked"],"reading_time":"3 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58393","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/434"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=58393"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58393\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/58396"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=58393"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=58393"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=58393"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
