Ethan Slater shared a series of cozy, intimate photos of Ariana Grande seemingly enjoying the holidays at home.
The actor took to Instagram Stories on Friday to share a live photo of the “Wicked” actress cuddling a little brown dog while relaxing on a couch.
Grande appeared to be enjoying a relaxed holiday, decked out in a classic black turtleneck and matching pants while petting the dog.
She pulled her light brunette hair away from her face and secured it with a wide white hairband, and finished the look with pearl earrings and platform heels.
Another upload showed Grande sitting next to a male pal while laughing. “Very merry holidays,” Slater wrote atop the snap.
Grande took to her own Instagram Stories to share pictures from the small gathering with friends.
Last weekend, eagle-eyed fans spotted Slater in backstage photosfrom Grande’s “Saturday Night Live” hosting gig, as well.
The “Spongebob Musical” star appeared in Elizabeth Gillies’ Instagram postmarking Grande’s accomplishment.
In one snapshot, Gillies inadvertently covered Slater’s face with her hand while toasting Grande, 32, with a cup of champagne.
Another photo showed the actors sitting backstage on a couch — without Grande — at the iconic comedy sketch show.
Grande, 32, and Slater, 33, became the target of breakup rumors as the pair kept their distance on red carpets amid the release of their musical “Wicked: For Good.”
Though Slater included a casual photo of himself with the hitmaker in an Instagram post last month, the pair refrained from showing PDA in the snapshot.
In a “Today” show interview later that month, Slater appeared to dodge questions about Grandewhen asked how it felt “working with [his] girlfriend every day” by co-host Craig Melvin.
Slater replied that the “the entire cast” of the film was “incredible.” He also called Grande a “brilliant” actress and noted the “remarkable” talents of their co-star Cynthia Erivo.
The Tony nominee divulged that watching Grande and Erivo play Glinda and Elphaba was “pretty special.”
“We filmed it years ago,” Slater recalled. “I didn’t forget how amazing their performances were, but [I loved] getting to watch it with an audience.”
“I’m so proud of everyone I got to work with,” Slater gushed. “We’re, like, a family.”
The actors first sparked dating rumors in July 2023, and Slater filed for divorce from Lilly Jay the same month. The former couple share a 3-year-old son.
The Grammy winning songstress filed for divorcefrom former husband Dalton Gomez in September 2023 after two years of marriage, citing the standard “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split.
She cited Feb. 20, 2023 as their date of separation.
