Ariana Grande’s boyfriend Ethan Slater is gearing up for a Broadway comeback.
The 31-year-old actor was seen in photos released on Friday preparing for the Monty Python musical Spamalot – while living with the pop star, 30, at her home in New York.
This comes just days after Grande’s multi-million dollar divorce settlement with her ex Dalton Gomez was revealed.
The Broadway revival – in which he plays Prince Herbert and the Historian – will also be his first role since he and the Everyday Life hitmaker met on the set of Wicked, split from their partners and began their romance.
Slater — who is best known for his role as SpongeBob SquarePants in the musical of the same name — will begin performances at the St James’s Theater later this month.

Living together: This comes just days after Grande’s multi-million dollar divorce settlement with her ex, Dalton Gomez, was revealed.
In the first photos, Slater could be seen dressed head-to-toe in costume and rocking the new look.
The Tony nominee is seen sporting longer, lighter brown hair compared to his natural red hair and rocking moustache.
His costume consists of small circular glasses, a plaid suit and a colorful sweater.
Mixing up multiple patterns, he also wears a polka dot button down and bow tie for his role.
According to the official synopsis, Spamalot is ‘lovingly ripped off’ from the classic film Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
The production features a book and lyrics by Eric Idle.
“Everything that makes a great knight in theater is here,” the synopsis states. “From flying cows to killer rabbits, British royalty to French teases, dancing girls, rubber bushes and, of course, the Lady of the Lake.”
