As concerns mount over Ariana Grande’s well-being, a source close to the singer and her boyfriend, Broadway star Ethan Slater, has shared that he feels “helpless” amid the ongoing situation. The pair, who have been under the spotlight while promoting their latest release ‘Wicked’, which debuted in theaters on November 22, have faced heightened public scrutiny. Fans have also expressed worry about Grande’s noticeable weight loss during the film’s promotional events.
According to a report by Daily Mail, a source close to Ethan Slater revealed that the Broadway actor is “concerned for her” but feels powerless to help Ariana Grande in her current situation. His worries about her health have reportedly intensified despite the success of their film, ‘Wicked.’
A second source shared that while many have noticed Grande’s apparent weight loss, they are reluctant to bring it up with her. There is also growing apprehension about how her image might affect her fans, particularly impressionable young girls who look up to her. “Ariana needs to consider the example she is setting. Everyone is concerned, but no one will ever say anything because everyone is scared of her,” the source told Daily Express US.

Experts have also voiced concerns about the singer’s health, citing visible signs like significant weight loss and alterations in her facial features. Dr. Dennis Schimpf, a plastic surgeon from South Carolina, suggested that her vegan diet might be contributing to a protein deficiency, potentially explaining some of these changes.
Fans on social media have been speculating that the immense pressure and stress of filming Wicked while managing other professional commitments might be impacting Ariana Grande’s health, potentially contributing to her noticeable physical changes.
One user on X commented, “I watched Wicked and Ariana lost a lot of weight her chest bones were so visible.” Another wrote, “I mean this will all respect, but Ariana Grande is clearly very ill and she should not be appearing in public roles that normalize this type of deadly weight loss.”
Defending Grande, another user stated, “Y’all need to back up a lil bit about Ariana‘s weight (loss). some people simply ARE skinny, not everything is an ED or mental health issue. if anything, she returned to her normal weight pre-tun. and in any case. IT‘S NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS. She serves BODY.”
Meanwhile, a different user added, “Ari loses like 10 lbs and stops wearing eyeliner and y’all think she’s a whole different person get a job u losers.”
