Ethan Slater finalizes divorce from Lilly Jay • PhilSTAR Life

Ethan Slater is now officially divorced from Lilly Jay amid his romance with Ariana Grande.

Citing court documents it obtained, TMZ reported on Friday, Sept. 13 that the former couple has finalized their divorce after a sign-off from a judge in New York.

Ethan filed for divorce from Lilly in July 2023, according to legal documents obtained by TMZ. They tied the knot in 2018 and welcomed their son in August 2022.

The divorce news came after Ethan sparked dating rumors with Ariana last year. Insiders said their romance began while filming Wicked in England.

Lilly broke her silence about their split later on, saying that the singer is “not a girl’s girl.”

“[Ariana’s] the story, really. Not a girl’s girl. My family is just collateral damage,” she told entertainment portal Page Six.

Ariana was previously married to real estate broker Dalton Gomez. They started dating in January 2020 and got engaged 11 months later. Their separation was reported two years after their May 2021 wedding.
