The two were seen cuddling during the award show, with Ariana Grande almost constantly keeping her arm around her boyfriend. Before the show started, they were also seen holding hands. Later, they were very caught in a romantic photo.
Ariana Grande was nominated for her role as Glinda: Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role. Both Ethan Slater and Ariana Grande shared the nomination for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture with the rest of their Wicked co-stars.
Earlier this month, Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater – who always keep their relationship very private – were also seen together at the Critics Choice Awards.

The couple doesn’t talk often about their relationship. But in October, Ethan Slater praised Ariana Grande’s Wicked performance in a conversation with GQ: ‘I’m just so proud of Ari and the work she’s done on this,’ he said. ‘She dove in. I’m very proud to have been part of that, and I’m very excited to be there for this next step, when the world gets to see what amazing things she’s done.‘
Ariana Grande, in turn, gushed about Ethan Slater during her interview with Vanity Fair. She said: ‘No one on this earth tries their best or contorts themselves to be there for the people they love and care about. There’s no one on this earth with a better heart.‘
