Ariana Grande hints ex husband CHEATED on her and ‘broke her heart’ before she got together with co-star Ethan Slater
ARIANA Grande has hinted that her ex husband Dalton Gomez cheated on her before she moved on with actor Ethan Slater.
The pop icon, 31, has used the deluxe edition of her 2024 album Eternal Sunshine to give fans an insight into her love life.
Ariana married American estate agent Dalton in May 2021 – a little over a year after they first got together.
But by July 2023 they were over.
Ari was living in London at the time due to filming hit film Wicked.
She went on to spark up a romance with her co-star Ethan Slater.
Ariana had been accused of cheating on Dalton with Ethan with vile trolls slamming her online.
But she now hints that her marriage was already over by the time she and Ethan, 32, hooked up.
On new single Twilight Zone, Ariana sings: “Hope you win for Best Actor. ‘Cause I had you completely wrong.
“Does she know you’re not who you say who you are? It’s not like I’m not over you. Sometimes I just can’t believe you happened.”
In the song – called Intro (End Of The World) – Extended: “I broke your heart because you broke mine.
“So me, I am the bad guy, ‘Cause I’d already grieved you. And you started to realise I don’t need you.”
In another clue about what happened, Ariana sings on Past Life: “Always wondered what would happen if I let you lose me. Always wondered what would happen if I let myself need more. Might f*** around elevate my expectations. Now I’m fine to leave you in a past life.”
The album closes with Hampstead – Ariana’s favourite track – which is named after the area where she and Dalton rented a stunning apartment during the filming of Wicked.
Seemingly slamming claims that SHE was in the wrong, Ariana appears to use the track as an open letter to her critics
She sings: “Threw away my reputation, but saved us more heartache, Yes, I know it seems f***ed up and you’re right, But quite frankly, you’re still wrong about everything. So far off, your seat’s nowhere near the table.”
She continues: “I’d rather be seen and alive than dying by your point of view.”
Ariana filed for divorce in October 2023 citing irreconcilable differences.
Their divorce was made official in March 2024.
Under their settlement, the We Can’t Be Friends made a one-time payment of $1.25m (£980,000) to her ex.
The Sun has contacted Dalton for comment.
