She will be loved.
Ariana Grande shared a rare sweet moment with her boyfriend, Ethan Slater, on the red carpet of Thursday’s “Wicked” premiere in New York City.
In pics from the night, Slater could be seen posing with co-star Bowen Yang as Grande makes her way to them and pulls her boyfriend in for a hug.
The former Broadway star, 32, grinned at the brief encounter before Grande, 31, returned to posing on the red carpet at the Museum of Modern Art.
The “7 Rings” singer was also left with a beaming smile as she posed for photos with her co-star Cynthia Erivo, with whom she arrived at the premiere.
Despite the sweet moment, the couple kept their distance on the red carpet. However, they were seen leaving the premiere holding hands, per a video shared on TikTok.
The clip showed Grande and Slater following Enrivo into a van while holding hands and waving at fans.
Grande –– who plays Glinda, the “Good Witch” –– paid homage to her character by wearing a strapless pink gown with a billowing peplum at her waist.
The Grammy winner styled her blond hair into a slick bun and added a statement diamond choker necklace to complete her look.
Meanwhile, Slater –– who plays munchkin Boq –– kept it classy in a navy suit with black lapels, a white button-up and skinny black tie.
Grande and Slater have kept a low profile since they began dating — and have yet to make their red-carpet debut as a couple.
However, during last week’s Los Angeles premiere of the movie, the two shared another sweet moment when Grande stopped to adjust Slater’s bow tie.
The “Side to Side” singer later gushed over Slater, telling “Entertainment Tonight,” “He’s always that adorable and he’s so amazing in this film.
“He’s such an amazing person. I’m so happy people are getting to know him. My heart is very happy.”
Slater has also raved about his singer, telling GQ in an interview published last month that he’s “really, really proud of Ari” for her work on the film.
“She’s poured herself into it,” he told the outlet. “I’m really proud that I got to be there for that part of it, and I’m really excited to be there for this next step of it when the world gets to see the amazing thing that she did.”
Grande and Slater sparked romance rumors while filming “Wicked” over the 2023 summer in London. By July, it was confirmed that they were dating.
Their relationship came amid her divorce from Dalton Gomez and his split from ex-wife Lilly Jay.
