The Grammy winner and the real estate agent first started dating in January 2020 and the couple got engaged later that same year in December.
In May 2021, the two said “I do” in an intimate yet romantic wedding ceremony at her Montecito home. However, earlier this year in July, news of their shock split came to light.
A source close to the couple told DailyMail.com at the time of the split news: ‘Ariana and Dalton have nothing but respect for each other. They are still friends and want to remain friends in the future.’
‘There was no cheating, no hard feelings between them, the marriage just didn’t work. These things happen,” the insider added.
According to Page sixGomez had flown to London to visit Ariana — who had been filming the live adaptation of Wicked since December 2022 — in an attempt to fix their rocky marriage, but it “didn’t work out.”
A separate insider inquired We weekly“Ariana and Dalton have been having some problems for months.”
The two ‘had issues before she left for the filming of Wicked (in London) that they couldn’t resolve, and the distance didn’t help. They have not spoken and are separated, and divorce is likely.”
Slater, for his part, initially married Lilly Jay in 2018 and were high school sweethearts.

In August 2022, the couple welcomed their first baby together: a son. However, the Broadway star also filed for divorce from Lilly in July, leaving her “devastated.”
While speaking exclusively to DailyMail.com, Lilly revealed that she has looked on the bright side and put her main focus on her son after reportedly being ‘blindsided’ by the split.
“I’m focused on rebuilding a life for our son,” she explained. “This is what I’m trying to do and this is my sole focus.”
An insider previously told DailyMail.com that “Lilly was hanging out with Ethan and Ariana so much. Ariana met and even held their baby.”
“They had dinners together in London — and Ariana told Lilly that she wanted to have a baby someday and that she couldn’t wait to start a family.” The source also revealed that Jay traveled to London when Slater started filming for Wicked.
Earlier this month, a separate source told DailyMail.com that both Ariana and Ethan are now living together as he prepares for the Broadway production of Spamalot.
The pair – who first met in December 2022 on the UK set of Wicked – are said to be ‘stuck together’ after their secret romance was made public, preventing them from returning to their respective marriages.
Last week, People magazine reported that the couple was strictly “friends” until after they split with their respective spouses.

But a separate source said these claims were ‘absolutely untrue’, adding that there was ‘evidence to prove this’.
“Ariana and Ethan never intended for their relationship to be made public,” the second source told DailyMail.com.
‘They hoped to keep it a secret and go back to their wedding as if nothing had happened. But this was not possible because they were caught.
‘Now they’re stuck together and they don’t really have anything in common. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.”
