Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater go Instagram official in Australia: ‘You have stolen our hearts’

Ariana Grande has gone ‘Instagram official’ with her new beau and co-star Ethan Slater.

The US pop star, 31, and Broadway actor, 32, attended the Wicked premiere in Sydney on Sunday, and shared their first photo together on social media on Monday.

Ariana shared a cute image of herself leading Ethan down some stairs among a raft of other images on her Instagram.

‘Sydney, you have stolen our hearts,’ the Thank U Next hitmaker wrote in her caption to the carousel of pictures.

Later, Ethan reshared the same image to his Instagram Stories. 

Grande stars as Glinda the Good Witch in Jon M. Chu’s highly anticipated musical fantasy film, based on the popular stage musical, while Slater takes on the role of Boq.

The pair have been incredibly private about their relationship ever since romance rumours emerged in July. 

It comes as fans have flooded social media with claims that the newly-minted couple have an ‘uncanny’ resemblance to each other.

‘Is that not her brother?’ wrote gossip maven Perez Hilton in a comment on Instagram, to which many fans responded.

‘I mean…the resemblance is uncanny,’ wrote someone else, while another said ‘I was thinking cousin.’

‘The resemblance to her brother is uncanny,’ wrote one more fan, while another claimed ‘literally they look like siblings.’

‘It’s disturbing, her brother is also pretty unique looking,’ wrote another commenter, referring to Ariana’s half-brother dancer and singer, Frankie Grande. 

Someone else echoed these familial resemblance sentiments by claiming Ethan and Ariana are ‘morphing into twins.’

The singer came under fire earlier this year following the revelation that she had been having an affair with actor behind the back of his soon-to-be-ex wife, Lilly Jay, with whom he shares a newborn son.

But to make matters worse fans have noted that Ethan could easily pass for the twin of Ariana’s older sibling, Frankie, 40.

With the arrival of the Yes, And? singer into Sydney, fans are now remarking on how much Ariana and her boyfriend look like.

Ariana and Ethan met in December 2022 on the UK set of the film adaptation of the Broadway musical Wicked, in which Grande plays Glinda — the good witch — alongside Ethan as munchkin Boq.

Ariana previously dated rapper Mac Miller from 2016 to 2018, who tragically passed away due to an accidental overdose.

The singer publicly mourned her ex by immortalising him in song on various hits, including Ghostin and Just Like Magic. 

She also enjoyed a whirlwind relationship and brief engagement with Saturday Night Live alum Pete Davidson in 2018.
