Ariana Grande and Ricky Alvarez Spotted Together Again: Fourth of July Grocery Run Sparks Speculation
Ariana Grande and Ricky Alvarez were seen together again, this time on the Fourth of July weekend, leaving a Whole Foods in Boca Raton, Florida, with grocery bags in hand.
The singer donned a casual look, sporting jeans and a hoodie, her hair pulled back in a bun, while Alvarez opted for dark-wash denim paired with a white collared shirt, sneakers, and a black baseball cap.
Alvarez, who dated Grande from 2015 to 2016, assisted the Grammy winner in carrying the grocery bags and loading them into the back of a vehicle.
Grande's representative did not respond to requests for comment regarding their recent outing.
The duo made headlines previously in June when they were spotted dining together in Texas, coinciding with news of Grande's split from boyfriend Ethan Slater.
Despite the buzz, sources insisted there was "nothing romantic" between Grande and Alvarez during that time.
During a recent concert, Grande altered lyrics about Alvarez, expressing that he has "still got [her] back," instead of the original line referencing their past relationship.
Alvarez's reaction was captured on camera as he celebrated with a friend after hearing the change.
Grande previously commented on the original lyrics via Instagram, humorously apologizing to Alvarez for what she called "the worst line."
The two have maintained an amicable relationship over the years, having been spotted together as recently as January 2019.
After their brief romance, Grande moved on to relationships with Mac Miller, ex-fiancé Pete Davidson, and Dalton Gomez, whom she was married to from 2021 to 2024.
Reports indicate that Grande and Slater split "several months" before news of their breakup surfaced.
A source stated that they have remained friends since the split, emphasizing mutual respect and admiration for one another. The decision to part ways was not taken lightly; they concluded they were better off as friends than in a committed relationship.
