    Ariana Grande is "so happy" the world is getting to know her boyfriend Ethan Slater

    The couple met on the set of 'Wicked' and have been on a press tour for the first part of the movie adaptation of the iconic musical, and the 'Thank U, Next' hitmaker praised her "amazing" partner as he's even been helping on the red carpet with her flowing gowns


    She told 'Entertainment Tonight': "It's always that.

    "He's always adorable, and he's so amazing in this film, he's such an amazing person, I'm so happy people are getting to know him. My heart is very happy."

    The 32-year-old actor - who plays Boq in the film - is "grateful" to be joining his girlfriend on the journey she's on.

    He said: "I am so proud of Ariana. She's incredible in this movie, and then to be able to share in the celebration of it, I'm just grateful."

    The pair were first romantically linked in July 2023, shortly before Ethan filed for divorce from Lilly Jay, and he recently admitted he's been "really hard" seeing their relationship under such intense scrutiny.

    He told GQ magazine: "Obviously, it was a really super big year.

    "I think there was something that was really difficult about things in your private life being commented on and looked at by the public.

    "There were a lot of big changes in private lives that were really happening, so it's really hard to see people who don't know anything about what's happening commenting on it and speculating, and then getting things wrong about the people you love.

    "So just to address that part of it, that feels really hard."

    Ariana is starring as Glinda the Good Witch in 'Wicked', and Ethan noted just how "proud" he was to work alongside the 'Into You' hitmaker and is just "excited" for the world to finally get to see the finished product.

    He added: "But, of course, it was an amazing year and a really beautiful thing, and I'm just really excited.

    "I'm just really, really proud of Ari and the work she's done on this. She's poured herself into it.

    "I'm really proud that I got to be there for that part of it, and I'm really excited to be there for this next step of it when the world gets to see the amazing thing that she did."
