Why Ariana Grande And Ethan Slater Nearly Broke Up
Rumors swirled for months that Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater’s romance might not survive the intense scrutiny surrounding their relationship.
While the couple never officially split, insiders say their bond was seriously tested behind the scenes.
Now, new details reveal how close they came to walking away before quietly working through their challenges.

Ariana Grande And Ethan Slater Faced A Rough Patch Behind The Scenes

Public sightings of Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater were scarce for much of last year, sparking speculation that their relationship might be on shaky ground. While the pair never officially broke up, insiders say there was a period when the future of their romance looked uncertain.
“Ariana and Ethan hit a rough patch towards the end of last year,” a source close to Grande’s family told the Daily Mail. “They never broke up, but it was questionable at a point if they were going to continue moving forward.”
Despite the tension, the couple reportedly chose to work through their issues rather than call it quits.

“They’ve really spent time working on their relationship and are in a much better place. It’s been hard for them with the way their relationship began and they’ve had a lot to work through, but they seem to really, truly love each other,” the insider added.
The source also pointed to Slater’s presence during some of Grande’s major moments as proof that the relationship remained strong.
They shared, “That’s a huge reason why Ethan was at a lot of Ariana’s Saturday Night Live duties. They also spent the holidays together with her family. Things are strong between them again now.”

How Grande And Slater First Crossed Paths

Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater’s love story began in late 2022 while filming the two-part movie musical “Wicked” in the United Kingdom, directed by Jon M. Chu.
At the time, both actors were married. Grande had tied the knot with real estate agent Dalton Gomez in 2021, while Slater was married to singer Lilly Jay.
Their personal lives shifted dramatically the following year. Court documents show Grande separated from Gomez in February 2023 after two years of marriage.
Around the same time, Slater filed for divorce from Jay in July 2023, shortly after news of his relationship with Grande became public. The Broadway star and his ex-wife share a young son.
The timeline surrounding their relationship drew intense attention online, placing the couple under a microscope from the start.

Ariana Grande’s Surprising Relationship Preferences

The insider also revealed an unexpected detail about what may have drawn Grande to Slater in the first place.
According to the source, the pop star has a pattern when it comes to her romantic choices.
“Ariana likes to date guys she knows she’s better looking than,” the insider said. “It’s due to her own insecurities.”
While the comment raised eyebrows, it was framed as part of the singer’s personal dynamics rather than a criticism of Slater.

Slater’s Public Comments About Grande

Ethan Slater has largely stayed quiet about the details of his relationship with Ariana Grande, though he has spoken publicly about her fans.
In September, the Broadway actor praised the singer’s supporters while speaking to PEOPLE after some fans struggled to secure tickets for her Eternal Sunshine tour.
“Ari’s fans are unbelievable and incredible and ferocious in their support of her – and it’s a beautiful thing,” he told the outlet. “And I really hope that there are other opportunities to see her perform.”
However, his reluctance to discuss their romance sparked fresh rumors in November when he appeared on the “Today show.”
When asked about the experience of “working with your girlfriend every day,” Slater avoided the question and instead focused on the film’s ensemble.
He described the cast as “incredible” and praised Grande as “brilliant,” while also calling co-star Cynthia Erivo “remarkable.”
Slater added that watching the two performers work together “from such a high level up close” was a “pretty special” experience.

Ariana Grande And Ethan Slater Are Now In A Stronger Place

Despite the speculation surrounding their relationship, insiders say Grande and Slater eventually found their footing.
“Ariana put Ethan on the back burner while she was promoting the movie,” another source told the Daily Mail.
The insider said the pair are now enjoying a quieter and more stable chapter of their relationship.
They added, “But they’re in a solid place now. They’re like an old married couple at home. They’d rather hang out together and do simple things like play board games or binge watch shows rather than go out to fancy places.”
Although they tend to keep their romance private, Slater has shown support for Grande behind the scenes. In December, he was reportedly backstage at “Saturday Night Live” when the singer hosted the show’s holiday episode.
More recently, fans have noticed subtle hints of their relationship on social media. Shortly after Christmas, the couple posted photos from what appeared to be a small gathering with friends.
Slater shared clips of Grande smiling and posing with her dog Toulouse while looking affectionately toward him behind the camera. Grande later reposted the clips on her own account, adding pink heart stickers.
The quiet gesture offered fans a rare glimpse into the couple’s personal life, suggesting that despite the turbulence they faced, Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater may have come out the other side stronger than before.

Victoria Woods Shares Strong Words For Scrappy & Momma Dee While Continuing Feud With Gloss Up
It’s unclear who reignited the beef between Victoria Woods and Gloss Up, as they both shared posts around the same time during the early hours of Monday, March 9. However, Woods took to her Instagram feed to share a video alongside a caption that tagged Gloss, “@glittergirlgloss let’s do a boxing match for 10k”
In the clip, Woods seemed to imply that Gloss started with her. She stated that the rapper “should be the last person coming for her.” From there, she appeared to refer to an apparent interaction that occurred during her recent appearance on a ’20 v. 1′ clip.
“B***h, you sent them h*es to try to do some s**t on the ’20 v. 1′ — them h*es swung and missed, and they ran, b***h. But you ain’t gon’ talk about that though, is it?” Woods said.
From there, Woods shared strong words mentioning Scrappy and Momma Dee.
“And Lil Scrappy lame ass — b***h, tend after that f*****g horse-mouth-ass momma you got, b***h, while you try to talk about, ‘Shawty, this, shawty, that.’ Go make some hits, h*e,” Woods said.
Woods ended the clip by challenging Gloss Up to “get in the ring.” Watch the NSFW clip by clicking here.
Then, she shared another clip with more words for Scrappy and Momma Dee. Watch that NSFW clip by clicking here.
Gloss Up Reacts As Their Feud Continues
In her initial response, Gloss took to Facebook to tell Woods to “Go get some d**k.” Then, she followed up with, “Btch Got Hit In Her Mouth & Didn’t Do S**t”
This prompted Woods to respond to Gloss with a carousel post on Instagram alongside the caption:
“you got clocked multiple times by multiple b!tches H03 stfu ‼️”
From there, Gloss shared a Facebook album post containing footage of an apparent physical altercation involving Woods.
At that point, Woods took to her Instagram to share a post of her sending her boxing request to Gloss, and Gloss declining via her Instagram Story.
Furthermore, Woods returned to her feed to share that she left Gloss “alone two weeks ago.” But if Gloss wants to continue with her, she’d post the clip of Gloss and GloRilla “fighting” and Glo “snatching” her wig “off.” Additionally, Woods said Gloss only wants to post videos of her altercations with men, while Gloss has had many unfavorable altercations with women.
Watch the NSFW clip by clicking here.
Furthermore, Woods also shared a second clip, alleging that Glo’s “beef” with JT stemmed from Gloss Up “being messy.” However, Glo and JT cleared things up, while Glo and Gloss went their separate ways.
At that point, Gloss responded via Facebook, with “MY POINT STILL STANDS !!! ATLEAST I FIGHT BACK !”
Then, on Monday, March 9, Gloss shared an NSFW video post of her “BFF” addressing Woods, and telling her to come to her for the “fade.” Hours later, Gloss reiterated via her Instagram Story that she will not be hopping in the ring with Woods.
As of Monday morning, Woods hasn’t publicly reacted to the footage of Gloss’s “BFF.”
Before Victoria Woods Shares Strong Words For Scrappy & Momma Dee, She & Gloss Had Previously Gone At It
As The Shade Room previously reported, earlier this year, things went left with Gloss Up and Victoria Woods. This, after Woods apparently called Gloss a “snake” while on a livestream. Initially, Gloss chose to stay mum on Woods’ comments. But Woods continued with her livestreams and mentioned that her relationship with her sister GloRilla became distant “because of Gloss.”
From there, Woods mentioned Gloss trying to clown her altercations with men, and things got taken up a notch when Gloss finally responded, printing NSFW, disparaging T-shirts with Woods’ caricature on them.

Dwight Howard Pops Out As Son Braylon Reacts To Amy Luciani
Dwight Howard was all smiles at an NBA game despite his brewing family drama that unfolded on social media. As previously reported, Amy Luciani accused her husband of coaching his son to lie to Child Protective Services (CPS), allegedly triggering the removal of her daughter from their home. After Amy’s emotional video plea went viral, Dwight’s ex, Royce Reed, hopped online with “I told you so” energy. Soon after, Royce and Dwight’s son, Braylon Howard, weighed in.
RELATED: Royce Reed Responds After Critics Accuse Her Of Laughing At Amy Luciani’s Video About Dwight Howard’s Alleged Drug Use (VIDEOS)
Braylon Howard Hopes His Dad Is Getting Help
As mentioned, Amy Luciani triggered responses from Royce Reed and Braylon after accusing Dwight of struggling with drug addiction and lying to CPS by forcing his 12-year-old to create a fake alibi. She went as far as showing a clear bag and a small silver vial allegedly filled with cocaine in her video. It’s unclear why CPS removed the girl from the home or what lie Dwight’s son was allegedly forced to tell.
Braylon Howard chimed in after his mother seemed to shade Amy Luciani for previously calling her crazy and jealous. On Instagram Story, Braylon shared a written post that said, “I told y’all.” Meanwhile, in a video on Sunday (March 8), he repeated his “I told y’all” comment and affirmed that his mother also gave warnings.
“But my momma crazy, my side of the family crazy, I’m crazy, my brother crazy, my sister crazy…I hope you getting the help you need, but I told y’all. My momma did too, especially. But it gets to a point you gotta learn to deal with certain things as you get older…that’s something right there I would never do…but you got it.”
Braylon also captioned that video, writing, “I rz hope yu gettin da help yu need dad but dis other stuff you doin gotta stop.”
Dwight Howard Appears Unbothered At NBA Game
Despite the drug and CPS-related accusations, Dwight Howard has not moved to clear the air. Instead, a video shows the NBA retiree grinning and waving at the Lakers vs. Knicks game on Sunday (March 8). He appeared to attend the game on his own at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. Meanwhile, Amy has gone silent on Instagram.
Recap Of Amy Luciani’s Allegations
For context, Howard has five children, including Braylon, by five different women whom he welcomed between 2007 and 2013. One son, David, has been living with him since 2020 after the child’s mother died from an epileptic seizure, per PEOPLE. David and his brother, Dwight III, were both born in the same year, making them both 12. Dwight Howard also has two daughters, Layla and Jayde, who were both born in 2010. David is the child involved in allegedly lying to CPS, and Layla is the child who CPS removed from the baller’s home. In her now-deleted post, Amy claimed that because of Dwight CPS has been to their home three times in less than two months.
“I have personally had to call the police on him 3 times in a barely 14 month marriage. Every one around me told me you made a commitment though sickness and health and that played with my mind after I filed for divorce at 6 months. I came back because honestly I tried to listen to the married people around me who said it was too soon to walk away. But now. Look what I’ve gotten myself into.”

Doja Cat Calls Out Timothee Chalamet Over Ballet, Opera Comments
Doja Cat is weighing in on Timothée Chalamet’s controversial comments about ballet and opera.
Chalamet, 29, recently drew the ire of the theater community after claiming in an interview that “no one cares” about the art forms anymore.
“Opera is 400 years old. Ballet is 500 years old,” Doja, 30, said in a TikTok video on Sunday, March 8, calling Chalamet out by name.
“Somebody named Timothée Chalamet — big guy, by the way — had the nerve to say on camera that nobody cares about it,” the “Paint the Town Red” rapper said. “I’m sure you can walk into an opera theater right now, seats will be filled out, and nobody’s saying a word as the performance is going because everybody has that much respect for it.”
She continued, “There is an etiquette around opera. There is etiquette around ballet. It’s amazing. It’s an amazing theater medium. It’s f***ing beautiful.”
Doja went on to praise people who work in ballet and opera for their dedication to their art.
“People go there every day to the dance studio. Dancers show up [at] 8 a.m., 6 a.m. whatever the f*** [time] they show up, and they break and they bleed every single day just because they have respect for it,” she said. “They love it, they love what they do. It doesn’t matter if the industry is having a tough time at any time … a lot of industries have a tough time. Your industry has a tough time. My industry has a tough time. Doesn’t mean people don’t care about it. People care. Dancers care. The singers care. The audience cares.”
“There’s still an audience. People give a f***. You show up in a nice outfit, you sit the f*** down and you shut the f*** up,” she concluded. “That’s the usual etiquette around those things. Maybe learn something from that.”
Us Weekly has reached out to Chalamet’s representative for comment.
During an interview with Matthew McConaughey for Variety last month, Chalamet talked about audiences seemingly having shorter attention spans.
“I admire people [saying], ‘Hey, we gotta keep movie theaters alive. We gotta keep this genre alive,’” he said. “I don’t want to be working in ballet or opera where it’s like, ‘Hey, keep this thing alive, even though no one cares about this anymore.’”
The Marty Supreme actor quickly added, “All respect to the ballet and opera people out there,” before saying, “Damn, I just took shots for no reason.”
The Oscar nominee has previously noted that several members of his family were ballet dancers, including his mom, Nicole Flender.
“My grandmother danced in the New York City Ballet, my mother danced in the New York City Ballet, my sister danced in the New York City Ballet,” he said. “I grew up dreaming big backstage at the Koch Theater in New York.”

Meghan Markle’s As Ever Says ‘No Decisions’ on Global Expansion
Meghan Markle’s lifestyle brand, As Ever, has responded to a report that she is looking to expand into Australia rather than the U.K.
“This is speculation,” an As Ever spokesperson told Us Weekly on Monday, March 9, in response to a report by ITV News published Sunday, March 8.
“No decisions have been made about when or where international expansion might take place. Entering new markets is a considered process, but it’s something the brand is excited to explore as it continues to grow in this next phase,” the spokesperson added. “Watch this space.”
ITV News royal editor Chris Ship reported on Sunday that Meghan, 44, would be taking private meetings in Australia next month in hopes of launching As Ever internationally. So far, the brand’s products have been available exclusively in the U.S.
According to ITV News, Meghan and husband Prince Harry will visit Australia in mid-April, with the couple’s office telling the outlet that they will partake in “a number of private, business, and philanthropic engagements.”
As Ever launched in the U.S. in April 2025, with Meghan’s initial offering including raspberry jam, honey, flower sprinkles, crepe mix, shortbread cookies and a variety of herbal teas. The products dropped in conjunction with the first season of the Duchess of Sussex’s lifestyle series, With Love, Meghan, on Netflix.
Netflix was an initial investor in the brand but confirmed to Us on Friday, March 6, that it had ended its investment in As Ever.
“Meghan’s passion for elevating everyday moments in beautiful yet simple ways inspired the creation of the As Ever brand, and we are glad to have played a role in bringing that vision to life,” a Netflix spokesperson told Us. “As it was always intended, Meghan will continue growing the brand and take it into its next chapter independently, and we look forward to celebrating how she continues to bring joy to households around the world.”

An As Ever spokesperson said, “As Ever is grateful for Netflix’s partnership through launch and our first year. We have experienced meaningful and rapid growth and As Ever is now ready to stand on its own. We have an exciting year ahead and can’t wait to share more.”
Meghan’s Netflix series, With Love, Meghan, aired for two seasons and a holiday special in 2025. In August 2025, Meghan and Harry’s Archewell Productions signed a new first-look deal with Netflix for film and television projects, extending their partnership with the streaming service.

Winona Ryder’s Raunchy, R-Rated 80s Comedy Still Shocks Audiences Today
By Chris Snellgrove
| Published

Old-timers love to wax philosophic about the good old days of cinema and how modern Hollywood just can’t create anything quite like the hit movies of yesteryear. A frequent theme of these complaints is that certain subjects have become taboo, which is why we no longer get R-rated comedies filled with nudity and transgressive humor. Most of the time, these gripes are overblown. While there are still plenty of transgressive movies out there, studio execs prefer to play it safe with big celebrity films for fear of scaring off the audience.
Back in 1988, though, we got Heathers, a star-studded film that could absolutely never be made today. That’s because this black comedy explores some of the most taboo subjects modern audiences can imagine, including school shootings and teen suicide, and it does so in the funniest possible way. If you’re ready for the most mean-spirited, hilarious movie of the ‘80s, then it’s time to grab your favorite flavor of corn nuts and stream Heathers for free on Tubi.
The ’80s Are Sexier Than Ever

The premise of Heathers is that the high school of a sleepy Ohio suburb is ruled with an iron fist by three popular and ruthless students: the titular Heathers. New girl Veronica desperately wants to join their clique, but her priorities seem to change when she meets a brooding and mysterious transfer student. When he helps her with a prank that turns out to be deadly, it’s soon clear that nobody’s lives will ever be the same.
The young cast of Heathers has some titanic talent, including the late, great Kim Walker (best known outside this film for Say Anything) as the ruthless leader of the Heathers, a shark trawling her high school for prey. That would-be prey includes a character played by ‘80s icon Winona Ryder (best known for Little Women) and a fellow Heather played by ‘90s icon Shannon Doherty (best known for Beverly Hills, 90210). But the real star of this black comedy is Christian Slater (best known for Very Bad Things), who does his best Jack Nicholson impression while creating one of the most compelling villains in cinematic history.
The Film That Blew Critics Away

Even though it was a critical darling (more on this very soon), Heathers was a box office bomb upon release, earning a paltry $1.1 million against its modest budget of $3 million. However, it quickly gained a cult following on home video, and this eventually led to two very different follow-up projects. The first was a short-lived television series that only got 10 episodes, while the second was an immensely successful Broadway musical, which can currently be streamed for free (check it out, it’s weirdly good!) on The Roku Channel.
When Heathers came out, it hit the critical world with all the impact of a bomb blast. On Rotten Tomatoes, it has a 95 percent, with critics praising the film for its dark humor, cynical characters, and subversive plot line. They also noted that this movie was a serious game-changer, one that left a permanent mark on every teen comedy that followed in Heathers’ bloody footsteps.
Heads Up, Hollywood: There’s A New Sheriff In Town

Heathers is one of those black comedies that never pulls any punches, and the film is that much stronger for it. It’s a movie where two characters make an accidental murder look like a suicide, and they keep doing so to cut out the worst of the student body like a cancer.
That’s already bleak enough, but the cherry on top is that the idiotic high school leaders assume this is part of a nationwide problem where youngsters view suicide as trendy. In a modern age where influencers can’t even say the word “suicide,” the movie’s in-universe song lyrics “Teenage suicide/ Don’t do it!” are transgressively funnier than ever before.

In the wrong writer’s hands, the ghoulish plot would be as dead as our main characters’ growing number of victims. But the script by first-time screenwriter Daniel Waters (he would go on to write such ‘90s bangers as Batman Returns and Demolition Man) will keep you laughing, even when the subject material is something you’re never supposed to laugh at. Heck, this is a film that dares to transform topics as taboo as school shootings into just another macabre punchline.
You’ll Definitely Preach About This Movie

It helps that Waters has such a solid handle on writing for young characters, and he does a pitch-perfect job of transforming the fictional Heathers high school into something universally recognizable. You might not have had to deal with a literal group of Heathers growing up, but every high school has their imperious, “too cool for school” cliques, just as every high school has a quirky new kid who tries to look like a mysterious rebel. High school is all about trying different identities on for size, and Heathers is shockingly adept at comedically navigating the gap between how we appear today and what we hope to look like tomorrow.
Of course, this tight script would be nothing without killer performances from actors like Christian Slater, who is at his charismatic best as a new kid out to make his daddy issues everyone else’s problem. Winona Ryder, meanwhile, is perfect as an ingenue who can’t decide whether she wants to join the elites of her high school, or take the time to discover what she really wants (which may or may not involve the cute new boy who keeps causing trouble). But the biggest revelation of this film is the late, great Kim Walker, whose Heather Chandler character is the perfect embodiment of sarcasm, style, and sex appeal (not to mention corn nuts).
Punch It In


With lines like “f*ck me gently with a chainsaw,” Heathers established itself as one of the greatest black comedies ever made. Will you enjoy watching this ‘80s classic, or will it leave you wanting to kill this film and make it look like an accident? The only way to find out is to grab your remote (preferably with a Big Gulp Slurpee from 7-Eleven in your other hand) and stream Heathers for free on Tubi.

32 Must-Watch Sitcoms on Hulu Right Now (March 2026)
After their business manager embezzles all their money away, the wealthy Rose family is forced to relocate to a tiny, remote town called Schitt’s Creek, which the family patriarch, Johnny (Eugene Levy), previously purchased as a joke. The formerly wealthy and fashionable Roses are completely out of their depth in a town with only one coffee shop, but the townspeople welcome them with open arms.
Eugene Levy and his son Dan Levy, who plays fashionable and uptight David Rose, wrote the show together. Annie Murphy plays flighty socialite Alexis Rose, while Catherine O’Hara is their mother, Moira. Although moving to Schitt’s Creek seems like a nightmare for the Roses, it helps them realize the value of their family and learn how to relate to ordinary people.
Of course, “ordinary” isn’t exactly the right word to describe the Schitt’s Creek natives — Mayor Roland Schitt (Chris Elliot) is nosy and posturing, his wife Jocelyn (Jennifer Robertson) is perky to the point of airheadedness and clerk Stevie (Emily Hampshire) is about as helpful as the broken sign above the motel the Roses move into. But somehow, they form a community that will move you to tears of laughter and joy.

Beloved Always Sunny Character Announces Long-Awaited Return
By TeeJay Small
| Published

FX’s It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia is widely considered to be one of the greatest television comedies of all time. Even though the screwball series began with a rag-tag crew of misfit twenty-somethings who could barely light a soundstage, the show has evolved to have some of the most jaw-dropping moments on television. While it’s been a blast watching the gang lie, cheat, steal, and double cross each other for the past 17 seasons, most fans agree that the show’s biggest draw is its growing rogues gallery of bystanders.
These wacky side characters, most of whom appear significantly worse for wear with each passing appearance on the show, include street urchin Rickety Cricket, Ben the soldier, and the bizarre, incestuous family known as the McPoyle clan. Thanks to a post from Guillermo del Toro on X, we now know that one of the most iconic McPoyles is coming back for Always Sunny‘s 18th season. The character, known as Pappy McPoyle, is a family patriarch, proud bird owner, and occasional eyeball snatcher, who last appeared on the show’s 11th season.
The Pap Is Back!
In case you missed it, legendary filmmaker and three-time Oscar winner Guillermo del Toro is the decorated thespian responsible for bringing Pappy McPoyle to life. You might not recognize him under the billowing beard, Gandalf-length white hair, and dirt that covers his entire face. As the story goes, del Toro first raised the possibility of doing a cameo appearance in Always Sunny while he was working with series star and co-creator Charlie Day on the 2013 film Pacific Rim. As they discussed the role, the Oscar-winner became committed to the idea of playing the most depraved and disgusting character the Sunny crew could conjure, and Pappy was born.
To date, Pappy has made his way onto It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia just twice, though he’s made a big impact on fans even with his limited screen time. He first showed up disheveled and ornery during the events of season 8’s “The Maureen Ponderosa Wedding Massacre,” and later took the witness stand in season 11’s “McPoyle vs. Ponderosa: The Trial of the Century.” According to the show’s lore, the entire McPoyle crew sprang forth from his mighty loins, along with one unnamed McPoyle who attempted to devour him upon birth. Fear not, intrepid viewer: Pappy ate him first.
Over A Decade In The Making

Last time we saw Pappy McPoyle, he was sicking his Pocono swallow on a courtroom full of unsuspecting people, and demanding that the bird snatch the eyeball of everyone’s favorite Harvard-educated lawyer. The interaction concluded with sweeping pandemonium, leaving fans unsure if Pappy was arrested by the court bailiff, or if he slinked off into the night, content to feast upon his freshly-snatched peeper under the cover of darkness. It’s been over 10 years since that episode aired, so we’ll have a lot of catching up to do once Always Sunny‘s 18th season finally arrives.
Guillermo del Toro’s social media post is quite cryptic. It doesn’t provide much direct information, other than an overt confirmation that Pappy McPoyle will return. For now, we’ll just have to wait for new episodes of It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia to release in order to find out where he’s been, where he’s headed, and what avian horrors await under his hat.
