Ariana Grande and her ex-husband Dalton Gomez have finalized their divorce after nearly three years of marriage. The Los Angeles Superior Court officially dissolved their union on Tuesday, as reported by the Associated Press. The 30-year-old singer and 28-year-old real estate broker had separated over a year ago and did not have any children or a pre-nuptial agreement in place.
The settlement terms, agreed upon in October, required a six-month waiting period before the judge's order could take effect. Grande made a one-time payment of $1,250,000 to Gomez with no future alimony, gave him half of the proceeds from the sale of their Los Angeles home, and agreed to pay up to $25,000 toward his attorneys' fees.
The couple tied the knot in a private ceremony at Grande's home in Montecito, California, on May 15, 2021. Prior to their engagement, they had kept their relationship private, with Grande sharing only a few images of Gomez on her social media.
According to reports, Grande and Gomez had been dating since January 2020 and even quarantined together during the COVID-19 pandemic. Grande recently released her seventh album, 'Eternal Sunshine,' which she described as capturing both painful moments and deep, sincere love.
Grande is also set to star alongside Cynthia Erivo in the two-part film adaptation of 'Wicked.' The singer's career continues to flourish despite the personal challenges she has faced in her marriage with Gomez.
