Ariana Grande and Ricky Alvarez made their first official red carpet appearance as a couple at the ‘Focker-In-Law’ premiere in New York City on November 11. The singer and her former backup dancer have rekindled their romance, which was first confirmed on social media in August.
Grande, known for her hit ‘hate that i made you love me’, looked elegant in a white and light gray striped dress with floral accents. Her hairstyle featured her signature ponytail adorned with a white bow. Alvarez complemented her look with a black blazer, white shirt, and jeans. The couple appeared affectionate, posing closely and sharing smiles during the event.
Speculation about their renewed relationship began in June when they were seen together in Austin, Texas. By August, Grande made it Instagram official, sharing a series of photos featuring the couple. Throughout her recent ‘eternal sunshine tour’, Grande has been dropping hints of their rekindled romance, even altering the lyrics of her song ‘thank u, next’ to reflect her feelings towards Alvarez.
In early November, Grande shared more intimate pictures on Instagram, capturing moments of affection between the two set in the greenery of New York City. Additionally, Alvarez has appeared on Grande’s R.E.M. Beauty social media, participating in a playful beauty challenge with the singer.
Grande and Alvarez have known each other since the Honeymoon Tour, where he was one of her backup dancers. They initially started dating in April 2015 but split in July 2016. Their recent appearances together suggest a strong rekindling of their past romance.
