Dalton Gomez and Ariana Grande have finalized their divorce. On March 19, 2024, the former couple formalized their divorce in court. This occurred six months after the news of their divorce settlement was made public. To comply with the six-month waiting time that is required by law for divorces that are filed in the state of California, the couple’s divorce has not yet been completed.
According to prior reports, as part of the divorce deal, Grande is anticipated to make a one-time payment of $1,250,000 to Gomez, for which there will be no future alimony payments. In addition, he is required to pay up to $25,000 to cover the costs of his legal representation. It is also anticipated that Grande would pay Gomez fifty percent of the revenues that are generated from the sale of the Los Angeles property that they both share.
Ariana Grande and Dalton Gomez’s Divorce
Ariana Grande and Dalton Gomez were both rumored to have filed for divorce at the same time by TMZ, which was published a month ago. “Irreconcilable differences” was the primary reason that Grande’s attorney, Laura Wasser, stated in her applications for the divorce, according to the source. Although the couple had a prenuptial agreement, it is stated that they took some time to smooth out the specifics of their separation to guarantee that it would be a peaceful one. The formal date of separation is supposed to be February 20.
On the 10th of October, Page Six was able to get further details on the divorce settlement of the former spouse. According to reports, the settlement results in Grande providing Gomez with a one-time spousal support payment of $1,250,000 that is exempt from taxation. Additionally, it has been claimed that Grande would pay Gomez $25,000 in legal expenses and would provide him permission to keep their old Los Angeles house without paying rent for thirty days. In addition, it is anticipated that the couple would put their jointly owned home up for sale when they have paid off their existing mortgage, which is valued at $6 million, and they will divide any profit that may be generated evenly.
“Ariana and Dalton wanted to take care of each other through all of this and make it as easy on each other as possible,” a source told Page Six. “This is why they really took their time with everything,” the insider said. They have a deep and abiding regard for one another.

How Ariana and Dalton Divorce Rumors Started
Ariana Grande was seen at a Wimbledon tournament in July sans her wedding ring, which was notably made by Dalton Gomez. This was the first time that rumors began to circulate about the possibility of the couple’s breakup. (When she is filming Wicked, Grande has been residing in the United Kingdom for some time now.) TMZ was the first news outlet to disclose that the couple had divorced after two years of marriage, which we now know occurred in February. This news broke during the same month.
It was said that Grande removed practically all photographs and references of Gomez from her Instagram profile shortly after TMZ broke the news that the pair had separated. This included pictures from their wedding as well as any photos they had taken on their honeymoon.
During the same time, reports began to circulate that Grande was dating her co-star in Wicked, Ethan Slater. Almost immediately after that, confirmation came in that Slater had filed for divorce from his wife, with whom he has a child who is one year old. “Ari and Ethan are just trying to lay low and be respectful of their exes as they pursue this new relationship,” someone told TMZ at the time. “They are just trying to be respectful of their exes.” Since then, it has been claimed that the alleged pair have moved in together.
