Ariana Grande is pulling out all the stops on her recent date night with fellow Wicked co-star Ethan Slater, as the singer is reported to be using 'intensive techniques' as she flirts with the actor.
The pair were seen together enjoying a date night over the weekend in New York City together on Saturday at the MO Lounge. Photos seemingly show Ariana, 30, and Ethan, 31, sat together at a table close to a window, with skyscrapers visible in the background. It has been suggested that the pair were very affectionate during the evening out together.
Discussing the potential new couple, body language expert Judi James commented: "Sitting looking out at a romantic view, side by side at the table and with your backs turned to the other diners does create the idea of an intimate date, especially as Ethan’s hand seems to be touching Ariana’s waist."
