Ariana Grande was photographed at a restaurant in Austin, Texas, on Thursday while spending time with ex-boyfriend Ricky Alvarez. The images circulated on social media as Grande performed in the city during her Eternal Sunshine tour. A source told TMZ the gathering was for her 33rd birthday and stated there is nothing romantic between them.
Alvarez were briefly linked after he worked as a backup dancer on her 2015 Honeymoon Tour. They have remained friends since, and Grande referenced him in her 2019 song Thank U, Next. The outing follows reports that Grande and Ethan Slater ended their relationship several months ago.
A source told Page Six the pair have stayed on friendly terms and that Grande is focused on her tour and upcoming album Petal.
