Ariana Grande Soft Launches Ricky Álvarez Romance After Reconciliation Rumors
Did Ariana Grande Confirm Her Relationship Status With Ricky Álvarez? Why Fans Think So
Although they’ve been friends for a minute, here’s further proof that Ricky Álvarez is Ariana Grande’s forever boy.
Indeed, the 33-year-old appeared to give a small glimpse at her rekindled romance with her former backup dancer, whom she dated from 2015 to 2016.
As she gears up to release her upcoming eighth album Petal, Grande posted a carousel of recent moments, including a clip of herself clinking olives with Álvarez. She captioned the July 27 Instagram, “petal season continued …….. !”
Following her breakup with Wicked costar Ethan Slater, the “Knew Better/Forever Boy” singer has been spending time with the 35-year-old, even referencing their rumored reconciliation on her Eternal Sunshine tour.
During various performances of her hit breakup anthem “thank u next,” which references several of her past relationships, Grande has changed the lyric about Álvarez, which typically goes, “Wrote some songs about Ricky / Now I listen and laugh.” During her June 24 show in Austin, Texas, she instead sang the second half as, “And they still really slap.”
