AceShowbiz - Ethan Slater, the 32-year-old actor and Ariana Grande's boyfriend, fell on the floor while attending the London premiere of "Wicked" on the rainy day Monday, November 19. As the cast gathered to mark the release of the Broadway musical's film adaptation, Slater tripped and fell on the slippery green carpet.
Captured on video by fans, Slater is seen sitting on the wet floor after losing his footing. However, true to his bubbly personality, the Broadway star quickly bounced back, flashing a thumbs-up and smiling at the cheering crowd.
Despite the rain-soaked floor, Slater managed to catch himself before hitting the ground. Fans on social media praised his quick recovery, with many humorously referencing his iconic role as SpongeBob SquarePants in the Broadway musical.
Despite their real-life relationship, Slater and Grande kept a low profile at the premiere, opting to maintain a distance on the carpet. The couple's romance has been the subject of public scrutiny since they met on the "Wicked" set in 2023.
Amidst the buzz surrounding their relationship, Grande has expressed her admiration for Slater, calling him "amazing" and "adorable" during promotional interviews for the film. "Wicked," which hits theaters on November 22, also stars Jonathan Bailey and Cynthia Erivo.
