Ethan Slater Sidesteps Ariana Grande Question on Today, Keeps Focus on Wicked Cast

The evasive exchange prolongs public uncertainty over their status during the film’s press tour.

Overview

  • In a Nov. 21 Today interview, Slater redirected a query about “working with your girlfriend” to a broad compliment of the Wicked: For Good ensemble.
  • He praised Ariana Grande as “brilliant” and Cynthia Erivo as “remarkable” without offering any update on his relationship.
  • Slater also revealed his Boq look sometimes required up to five hours in the hair and makeup chair for the second film.
  • Recent premieres showed conflicting signals, with reports of backstage affection in London but little visible interaction on red carpets.
  • Outlets reported no immediate responses from representatives, as coverage continues to weigh breakup rumors against sources claiming the pair remain together.
