Ariana Grande’s husband Dalton Gomez is said to have visited the singer in London in a “last ditch attempt to save their marriage”.
The singer, 30, sparked rumours she was having marital troubles when she appeared at Wimbledon over the weekend without her wedding band from her luxury estate agent husband of just over two years, and it was widely reported on Monday the couple have now split and are heading for a divorce.
Sources close to ‘Thank U, Next’ singer Grande told Page Six Gomez travelled to see his wife while filming ‘Wicked,’, but it “didn’t work out.”
Insiders have also told Page Six the pair “have been separated since January – but have remained incredibly amicable”.
One source added: “They came to the decision together. They were having problems before January, but they want to remain best friends.
“They’ve been really good friends throughout the entire process, and their friends and families have been trying to protect them.”
Grande was last seen with her wedding band in public in April at Jeff Goldblum’s London concert.
She and Gomez secretly tied the knot in May 2021 at her home in Montecito, California.
Her representative told People at the time: “It was tiny and intimate – less than 20 people. The room was so happy and full of love.
“The couple and both families couldn’t be happier.”
Grande shared the first photos of the intimate event days later, revealing how she had worn a white Vera Wang wedding dress and veil.
She was proposed to by Gomez in December 2020 when he handed her a pearl and diamond ring – with the pearl from a ring the singer’s grandmother had given her.
The couple had started dating earlier that year, with the pair featuring in Grande’s and Justin Bieber’s music video for the ‘Stuck with U’ track.
Grande was previously set to marry actor and comic Pete Davidson, 29, in 2018 before they split up.
