This clip of Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater proves she’s developed major ick and despises him

I’m afraid the relationship between Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater will forever be one I give a side eye to and as happy as they might seem I simply cannot bring myself to root for them.

Especially after Ethan’s ex-wife admitted that seeing continuous promotional material for Wicked every time she left the house felt like “torture” not even mentioning she’d only recently given birth when he left her.

No matter what your opinions on them as a couple are, a new clip of Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater at the Critics Choice Awards has gone viral and everyone is convinced she’s completely gone off him.

People first started mocking the couple’s conversation after admitting it reminded them of one you’d have with your co-worker. Yikes. Ariana can be seen asking Ethan: “How are you? Are you having fun?”

But the real proof, according to the internet, that Ariana Grande is officially icked out by Ethan Slater comes from the fact she literally removed his hand from her waist whilst simultaneously grabbing his other hand so he couldn’t put that one on her.

And yes, this is the same person who held Cynthia Erivo’s nail for support.

Everyone is claiming that Ariana really doesn’t want Ethan to come anywhere near her, with one person writing: “They went from ‘romantic drama’ to ‘awkward small talk by the water cooler’ real quick.”

Another added: “Being an Ariana stan for so long you can tell when she’s about to leave her man.”
