Ethan Slater and Lily Jay finalized their divorce on Thursday, after nearly five years of marriage, according to a report from TMZ.
The former couple had been together since 2012 and married in November 2018. They share one child, a son, who was born in August 2022. The Spamalot actor and Jay filed for divorce in New York, with the terms of their settlement sealed. Ethan Slater made headlines earlier this year when he began dating his 'Wicked' co-star Ariana Grande after separating from Jay. Slater filed for divorce in New York City on July 26, but the reason for their split was not disclosed. Earlier the actor often shared posts about his family on his Instagram account. On Mother's Day, he posted a heartfelt message for Jay, calling her the "most loving, caring, and wonderful mom/person in the world," a post that was liked by Ariana Grande. He had also celebrated their fourth wedding anniversary, referring to Jay as his "best friend" and marking the milestone with the message, "4 years married, 10 years together. And this is easily the best (and most bizarre) year yet." Ariana Grande, 30, also went through her own separation from ex-husband Dalton Gomez in July 2023, after nearly two years of marriage. The two settled their divorce in early October 2023. According to a source who spoke to PEOPLE, Grande and Gomez have been "working on their friendship" since the split. As for Slater and Grande, the couple has been keeping their relationship out of the spotlight. A source told PEOPLE in September 2023, "They are just trying to navigate their new relationship in private." (ANI)
