Ariana Grande's long list of high-profile and controversial relationships always piques the curiosity of the public. Her dating preferences, particularly her tendency to enter into new relationships shortly after the end of long-term commitments, led to intense criticism.

Ariana Grande Moved In With New Boyfriend Ethan Slater After Divorcing Dalton Gomez

Ariana Grande's marriage and relationship with Dalton Gomez were shrouded in mystery for the most part, but they were suddenly thrust into the limelight after reports of their split surfaced. Before Grande and Gomez's divorce was finalized in October 2023, People Magazine reported that Grande seemed to have moved on from Gomez and found solace in the company of her Wicked co-star, Ethan Slater.

In September 2023, Grande moved in with Slater after the actor initiated divorce proceedings from his wife, Lilly Jay. Grande and Slater appear unfazed by the negative attention they're receiving, as they are often seen packing PDAs both on and off the set of Wicked.

Their rapidly evolving relationship already caught the public's attention.

Ariana Grande's Low Self-Esteem May Be Why She Gets Into Relationships With Committed Men

Relationship coaches Hayley Quinn and Kezia Noble, were interviewed by the Daily Mail to share their insights about Ariana Grande's dating history. Noble stated that Grande's dating pattern might be influenced by the fact that men who have recently ended relationships are often more predisposed to committing to a new one.

She said that the pop star might be drawn to these men because they are more likely to seek emotional solace and commitment after their previous breakups.

Noble also explained that individuals coming out of relationships tend to be emotionally vulnerable and are often eager to find someone to replace their ex-partners, potentially leading to quicker transitions into new relationships as a means of coping with post-breakup pain and loneliness.

Quinn added that despite external appearances, even those who seemingly have everything may not necessarily possess high self-esteem. According to Quinn, Grande may not hold particularly high standards for her partners and could be prone to rushing into relationships as soon as interest is expressed.

Quinn also noted that some individuals, including Grande, may enter into relationships hastily due to underlying feelings of insecurity about being alone. "People can rush into relationships when, deep down, they feel insecure about being alone. They can become addicted to the exciting first stages of romance, and simply overlook any red flags in their new partner."

She added, "This means if someone's already in a relationship, it might be viewed as an exciting part of the "chase" to finally being able to be together; rather than a warning sign about their trustworthiness."

Ariana Grande's Most Successful Single Was A Disaster Behind The Scenes

In the long run, Quinn emphasized that lasting relationships must navigate periods of routine and require commitment even as the initial excitement wanes. She stressed that building enduring relationships hinges on shared values, mutual relationship goals, and respect for one another. Relying on excitement and uncertainty to maintain romantic connections often results in short-lived relationships.

Instead, Quinn argued that chasing the "high" of initial excitement with a new love interest can hinder the development of genuine emotional intimacy and connection.

Ariana Grande Allegedly Dated Big Sean And Mac Miller While They Were Still In Relationships

Ariana Grande's dating history has not been without its fair share of controversy and allegations of infidelity. This isn't the first time Grande was accused of being a serial home-wrecker due to her involvement with someone newly single.

The first accusation was made by her ex, Jai Brooks in 2013 when he claimed Grande cheated on him with The Wanted's Nathan Sykes. Her relationship with Sykes was short-lived, and the very next year, she began dating Big Sean, even though he was engaged to the late Glee star, Naya Rivera.

Ariana Grande and Big Sean Song Collaborations:

• "Right There" - 2013
• "Best Mistake" - 2014
• "Research" - 2015

In her autobiography, Rivera shared her turbulent relationship with Big Sean, when they were constantly at odds. "We'd been fighting for five straight days while he was traveling, and then on the one day that he was back in LA he said he didn't want to see me... I walk in, go downstairs, and guess what little girl is sitting cross-legged on the couch listening to music? … It rhymes with 'Smariana Schmande.'"

Grande vehemently denied any involvement with Big Sean while he was still with Rivera, and asserted that their relationship began only after his split from the actress.

In 2016, Grande started dating Mac Miller after they were spotted kissing during a romantic sushi date, immediately after Miller's breakup with Nomi Leasure. Grande denied ever cheating on Miller while they were still together, but she was accused of being the other woman in the rapper's previous relationship.
