In Los Angeles on Monday night, Ariana Grande grew emotional on stage during a stop on her newly launched Eternal Sunshine Tour, her first tour since 2019’s Sweetener World Tour. The concert marked her first major public performance since media reports detailed her separation from actor Ethan Slater, her co‑star in the film adaptation of Wicked. Pausing between songs, Grande wept as she addressed the arena crowd, thanking them for their long‑term support and calling them a loving, safe presence through different phases of her life. The appearance comes amid leaks describing the relationship as on‑and‑off before a final split.
