Dalton Gomez, Ariana Grande’s ex-husband, has pledged to respect her privacy by not disclosing any ‘tapes’ or recordings from their two-year marriage.
According to fresh legal filings obtained by The Blast, the former couple will not reveal information about the breakdown of their brief marriage, despite rumours that she has moved in with her lover Ethan Slater.
In their settlement agreement, both parties agree not to release or publish ‘any photograph (and related negatives), tape, film, or like embodiments in all forms whether now or hereafter created, or other record or recording of any aspect of any activity in or about any home, office, or other property owned.’
Furthermore, he is barred from producing a tell-all book about their relationship or conducting any interviews about the ‘details of their marriage.’
He is also not permitted to ‘give any interview, write, appear in connection with, or aid or participate in the preparation or presentation of any book, essay, interview, program, or other production or publication of any sort whatsoever concerning the other party.’
Grande has also consented to the limits and confidentiality clause, which, according to the documents,’shall be fully enforceable by each party.’
According to the lawsuit, Gomez ‘acknowledges that (Grande’s) privacy and the non-disclosure of personal information regarding him are crucially important.’
The divorce processes for the Into You hitmaker were allegedly speedy because they had an ironclad prenup in place.
The real estate agent received a cheque from the Grammy winner worth a total of $1,250,000, which was also tax-free.
The former pair will also split the ‘net earnings’ from the sale of their Los Angeles house, and Grande will pay Dalton’s legal bills in the amount of $25,000.
Despite the pair’s divorce being finalized, a source informed the entertainment tabloid that there is no bad blood between Ariana and Gomez – who tied the knot in 2021.
‘There is still a strong mutual love and respect between Ariana and Dalton and they wanted to make sure everything was done right in lockstep with one another,’ the insider expressed.
On September 18, the former Nickelodeon star filed for divorce, which Dalton likewise did on the same day.
Ariana’s lawyer, Laura Wasser, stated ‘irreconcilable disagreements’ as the basis for their divorce in paperwork acquired by TMZ previously, with the date of separation given as February 20, 2023.
According to sources, everything was ‘worked out’ between the former couple ‘before going to the courthouse,’ and the actress intends to ‘cut Dalton a check’ to officially dissolve the marriage.
The couple filed for divorce months after their claimed date of separation, and an insider told TMZ that the rationale was to ‘smooth out specifics and settle.’
The insider claims that Grande and Gomez have ‘no bad feelings’ and that ‘they’ve been incredibly compassionate and respectful of one another every step of this process.’
The Grammy winner and the real estate salesperson started dating in January 2020 and were engaged in December of that year.
In May 2021, the two said ‘I do’ in her Montecito home at a simple and lovely wedding ceremony. However, word of their shocking split broke earlier this year in July.
‘Ariana and Dalton have nothing but respect for one another,’ a source close to the couple told DailyMail.com at the time of the breakup. They’re still friends and wish to stay that way in the future.’
‘There was no cheating, no resentment between them, the marriage just simply didn’t work out. These things happen,’ the insider added.
According to Page Six, Dalton traveled to London to see Ariana, who has been filming the live rendition of Wicked since December 2022, in an attempt to rebuild their marriage, but it ‘didn’t work out.
Since their divorce, the singer has been romantically linked to actor and Wicked co-star Ethan Slater, who filed for divorce from his wife, Lilly Jay, in July, leaving her ‘devastated.’
