Ariana Grande is reportedly saying “thank you, next” to her husband of two years.
The singer, 30, and the high-profile real estate agent Dalton Gomez, 27, allegedly split at the beginning of the year and “have been quietly and lovingly working on their friendship” since, a source revealed to People magazine.
Insiders claim that distance did not make the heart grow fonder and, instead, played a big role in the couple’s separation. “She was happy in Los Angeles for a couple of years. She wanted to make a life there with Dalton,” the source told People.
“He is super focused on his career and needs to live in Los Angeles,” the source added. “It’s definitely been an issue for them. Dalton’s career is demanding and he can’t leave Los Angeles often. So when [Grande] started filming Wicked in England, they were in for a long-distance marriage.”
Grande, who has been based in the UK while working on the Wicked screen adaptation, was seen at Wimbledon over the weekend with her engagement ring and wedding band notably missing.
