Ariana Grande and Dalton Gomez Are Now Moving Towards Divorce
Ariana Grande and Dalton Gomez have been separated since January. According to TMZ, the two are moving toward a divorce.
A source recently informed PEOPLE that the pair “have been quietly and lovingly working on their friendship” while separated.
Fans’ speculations about the couple’s split occurred this past weekend when Grande was photographed at Wimbledon without her wedding ring. Throughout their relationship, the public has been keeping a close eye on the two.
Grande and Gomez were first spotted in 2020 when a photo was published of the singer kissing an unrecognizable man in Los Angeles. Though many assumed he was somehow involved in the entertainment industry, it was later revealed that Grande was in a relationship with a luxury real estate agent.
It did not take long for the couple to go public. In December 2020, Grande took to Instagram to share engagement photos. The post has since been deleted.
In May 2021, they tied the knot in an intimate wedding ceremony in Grande’s home in Montecito, California. The Montecito property was originally owned by Ellen Degeneres, who sold it to the singer for $6.75 million in late May 2020. The estate is equipped with a full gym, a workshop, a basement, and a three-car garage. However, Grande ended up selling the estate for $9.1 million back in October 2022.
Grande and Gomez have spent time apart since their marriage. This was largely due to Grande being cast as Glinda in the upcoming film Wicked: Part 1. Universal Pictures has the film to be theatrically released on November 27, 2024. However, it is possible that the date will change due to the SAG-AFTRA strike in Hollywood.
While she usually lives in the quiet neighborhood of Los Angeles’ Hollywood Hills, Grande has been spending a lot of her time on set in a different country. According to The Digital Fix, the film adaptation is in production in the village of Ivinghoe in Leighton Buzzard, a market town in Bedfordshire, England. For the couple, a direct flight from Los Angeles to England – roughly a 10-hour flight – is no easy trip.
Fans have taken to Twitter to express their shock and reactions.
I’m so shocked, was not expecting this. Well that explains the wedding ring 🙁

Honestly don‘t know why yall are spiraling. Even if the article is true, it says they want to remain best friends and clearly emphasize that the break-up was NOT a bad break-up. They likely went out in a good and healthy way, not to mention Ariana is clearly HAPPY and thriving pic.twitter.com/bSmPrgfTUz

Though the artist has not released new music of her own since December 2021, she has been taking time offline and thriving in privacy.
“We’re told they remain friends and still talk on the phone regularly, but, according to sources, the marriage is kaput,” stated TMZ on Grande and Gomez’s alleged split.
The two have shared their love for each other on social media often, but for the most part, the details of their relationship have been kept under wraps. Neither Grande nor Gomez have publicly made a statement on these reports and speculations.
