Ariana Grande and Ricky Alvarez were spotted sharing a kiss
According to a video obtained by TMZ, Ariana Grande and her ex-boyfriend, Ricky Alvarez, were seen together at Halloween Horror Nights in Universal Studios. They were seen enjoying a VIP experience together when the cameras caught them. However, the highlight was the pair sharing a passionate kiss in front of the onlookers.

Some other videos obtained by the outlet showed the couple sitting together at a table in a private area. Eventually, they leaned in for a kiss. Meanwhile, the witnesses also claimed they appeared affectionate towards each other throughout the evening. Ariana and Ricky chatted closely and spent most of the night beside each other.
Insiders also alleged that Ariana tried to keep a low profile during the outing. For this purpose, she wore a cap pulled down over her face. Still, fans at the popular event recognized her. Moreover, some onlookers claimed that the singer also sat on Ricky’s lap during their outing. Interestingly, the Halloween Horror Nights incident was just a part of the duo’s recent reunion.
The speculations about Ariana and Ricky’s rekindled relationship go back to June 2026, when they were seen together in Austin, Texas. After a few days, the latter joined the singer and her family for Fourth of July celebrations in Florida. Soon, it made fans speculate whether the pair had rekindled their romance.
Over the summer, Ricky was also seen supporting Ariana at many concerts, including tour stops in Texas and New York. Since then, paparazzi have clicked the duo at various outings. Later, Ariana had to make her relationship Instagram official through a social media post with Ricky. However, they have mostly stayed out of the spotlight as they continue to spend time together.
For those who do not know, Ariana and Ricky’s love story goes back more than 10 years. They first met while working on Ariana’s The Honeymoon Tour in 2014, where he worked as a backup dancer and photographer. Initially, they developed a friendship that turned into romance in 2015.
However, after dating for a little over a year, they broke up in 2016. Although neither of them gave any specific reason behind the split, reports claimed that their busy schedules left them with no time to maintain a relationship. Therefore, there was no cheating scandal or major fallout.
Later, Ricky worked with Ariana during her Sweetener World Tour. He also continued to be a part of her inner circle. Fans might also remember that he was mentioned in Ariana’s popular hit, Thank U, Next. It was a hint to their friendly bond long after their breakup.
