Notably, Slater also recently ended his four-year marriage to Lilly Jay. The timing certainly raised eyebrows and led to a ton of gossip.
At the time, one insider even claimed that their alleged affair was an open secret on the set of the Wicked movie. According to this source, their actions on set were far from discreet. With allegations that they were frequently seen getting close to each other while Slater was still supposedly married to Jay.
Moreover, it was suggested that the two couples went on several double dates in London while filming was taking place. Making the situation even more complicated.
Adding fuel to the fire, there were reports that Grande had met Slater and Jay’s newborn baby during their time in London. She apparently expressed her desire to have children in the future during conversations with Jay. These claims painted a picture of a tangled web of emotions and relationships.
