While neither Slater nor Grande have commented on their alleged relationship, Jay previously gave a statement to Page Six that appeared to confirm her separation from Slater was due to the relationship with Grande. Grande was married to luxury real estate broker Dalton Gomez for two years. Slater was married to Jay for four years, and had been in a relationship with her for a decade. The couple share a child, born last year.

The allegations came from an anonymous source who told The Daily Mail that they worked on the set of “Wicked.”

Internet Reactions

Fans of Grande accused Page Six of being biased against Grande in their reporting. The site was first to print an exclusive from Slater’s soon-to-be ex wife.

The singer’s most recent alleged infidelity has fans racing to combat claims of Grande being a serial home wrecker. Others point to several of her previous high profile relationships, many of which the singer referenced directly in her hit song “thank u, next.”

Others argued that the press needs to drop the issue, and that the public should not know this many details of celebrities’ personal lives outside of their work.

Rumors continue to circulate that Grande allegedly broke up Rikki Valentine and Christian Fortune while she starred in Nickelodeon’s “Victorious”, Pete Davidson and Cazzie David, Big Sean and Naya Rivera, and more.

Others argue that the internet ought to lay the story to rest, as Slater’s wife and young child are now involved.

Media References

Grande’s track “break up with ur girlfriend, i’m bored” has not escaped the recent conversation surrounding the singer-actress. Many feel that the track alluded to her alleged pattern in relationships. Elsewhere, a clip of Slater on “Law and Order: SVU” has resurfaced, with some sensing that the timing of its reruns is uncanny.

Elsewhere, some referenced an iconic scene from “Sex and the City” in relation to the situation. In the scene, Kim Cattrall’s Samantha Jones has broken up a marriage, and no longer wants to be in a relationship with the husband.

No other cast members of the upcoming live-action “Wicked” have spoken on the relationship at this time. Both Slater and Grande continue to go through divorce proceedings from their respective spouses.

The article attributes it to the organizers, which covers you.) — **Creator Frankie LaPenna fights ‘Terminator’ robot in first human vs. robot bout** SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. — A man stepped into a fighting cage with a 6-foot humanoid robot, and the robot came out on top. Robotics startup REK staged the human-versus-humanoid kickboxing demonstration in San Francisco on Friday, Sept. 18, putting creator Frankie LaPenna inside a cage with the machine. The opponent was the 80-kilogram (176-pound) EngineAI T800, a humanoid built to look like the Terminator. LaPenna, wearing a helmet and chest protector, landed a few punches before the robot kicked him in the head, according to the official video description. Footage shows the robot kicking him across the cage as spectators outside the ring looked on. “We just made history with the first Human VS Terminator robot fight,” REK posted on X on Sept. 20, adding that more fight footage is coming. The “first” label comes from REK and LaPenna and has not been independently verified. The robot was not fighting on its own. REK’s robots are not autonomous fighters, and the event showcased remote control and mechanical stability rather than independent combat strategy. The bout was part of REK’s work on a virtual reality combat game in which people remotely control humanoid robots to compete against each other. REK founder Cix Liv came to robotics from virtual reality and is building a sport that links virtual competition to physical machines. The LaPenna match pushed his format beyond the company’s usual robot-versus-robot fights. Online, viewers debated whether a trained fighter would fare better, with some predicting human-versus-robot bouts could reach the UFC within five years. — Note: AP datelines use a dash after the city.
