Yes, and?
Ethan Slater was all smiles making his first public appearance after his and Ariana Grande’s breakup news made headlines.
The actor, 34, walked the red carpet solo at Shakespeare in the Park’s “Romeo & Juliet” at Central Park’s Delacorte Theater in New York City on Thursday.
He cut a casual figure in black pants, a white T-shirt and matching sneakers.
The outing came three days after Page Six confirmed he and his “Wicked” co-star, 32, have been over for months.
“Ariana and Ethan broke up several months ago but they’ve remained friends since then and have nothing but respect and admiration for one another,” a source told us Monday. “This wasn’t a decision they took lightly but realized they were better off friends than in a committed relationship.”
The insider noted, “Ariana is feeling really happy and focused on the next chapter with her ‘Eternal Sunshine’ tour and the upcoming release of her album ‘Petal.’”
Slater’s absence from Grande’s tour, notably, had fueled breakup speculation.
He did, however, subtly show support for his ex on Instagram by “liking” her performance pictures.
