Ariana Grande at Wimbledon with no ring

According to a source, Ariana Grande, 30, and husband Dalton Gomez (a luxury real estate agent, 27), separated earlier this year, and have been discreetly and affectionately working on their friendship since then.

While filming the screen adaptation of Wicked in London, Grande was seen at Wimbledon without her engagement ring and wedding band during the weekend.

In August of last year, she posted a makeup tutorial on TikTok without wearing the ring, but promptly denied any rumors, saying, “I’m just not wearing my wedding ring, it’s getting cleaned. I’m not getting a divorce before you start, don’t.”

In May, Grande celebrated their second anniversary on Instagram. She shared a picture with a “2” representing their years as a married couple, along with the phrase “3.5 together” to signify their time as a couple. In the caption, she expressed her love for him.

Gomez also shared affectionate photos for Valentine’s Day, which Grande reposted. He wrote, “My forever valentine,” while Grande added, “I love you” with a heart.

During their wedding in May 2021, a representative confirmed that they had tied the knot in an intimate ceremony at their home in Montecito, California, attended by fewer than 20 people. The atmosphere was filled with joy and love, according to the representative.

​​”They’re a great fit together,” said a source after their wedding. “Dalton’s entirely unfazed by the scope of her celebrity and is very grounding for her. He’s young but mature and knows what he wants out of life.”

Another source described Gomez as hardworking, focused, and uninterested in fame. He is the perfect match for Grande.

The singer and actress began dating Gomez in January 2020 and announced their engagement 11 months later. Throughout their relationship, they have mostly kept it private, although Grande shared a rare glimpse into their lives in November by posting a carousel of photos featuring Gomez on Instagram.
