Ariana Grande is following in her boyfriend Ethan Slater's footsteps ... because she's also officially filed for divorce from her husband of 2 years, Dalton Gomez, and he's filed too.
Ariana's lawyer, Laura Wasser, filed first Monday ... citing the boilerplate "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for divorce.
Dalton immediately followed suit, filing his response in a clearly-coordinated effort. We're told everything was worked out before going to the courthouse. Sources say Ariana will cut Dalton a check, and that will be that.
BTW ... they had a prenup. The date of separation is February 20, 2023.
As for why it took so long between the date of separation and the divorce filings, a source with direct knowledge tells us the two took their time to iron out details and settle. Our source says there are no hard feelings ..."they’ve been really caring and respectful of one another every step of this process."
As we reported, Ariana began dating her "Wicked" costar, Ethan Slater, after splitting with Dalton while filming the flick overseas ... a bombshell that sent fans wild.
Since then, Ethan's filed for divorce from his wife, Lilly Jay. The 2 were high school sweethearts and tied the knot in 2018. They also share a kid together, whom they welcomed last year.
Sources also told us Ethan "desperately" wants to co-parent their kid in the midst of their divorce ... and both of them have apparently agreed.
Neither Ariana or Dalton have commented publicly on their divorce.

Desde entonces, Ethan ha solicitado el divorcio de su esposa Lilly Jay. Los 2 fueron novios en la escuela secundaria y se casaron en 2018. También comparten un niño juntos, a quien dieron la bienvenida el año pasado.
Las fuentes también nos dijeron que Ethan quiere "desesperadamente" coparentar a su hijo en medio de su divorcio y ambos aparentemente han aceptado.

Ella termina diciendo: "La única razón por la que estoy compartiendo ESTA parte de la charla es porque las narrativas se están yendo un poco de las manos y es injusto para todas las partes involucradas. Espero que esto les aclare un poco las cosas". Vale, AunTey, los vuelvo a sacar del chat, ¡adiós!".

She finishes by saying ... "The only reason I’m even sharing THIS part of the chat is because the narratives are getting a little out of hand & it’s unfair to all parties involved. I hope this provided some clarity for y’all. Okay AunTey taking y’all back out the chat bye!"
Teyana and Iman have been together for quite a while now -- they got hitched in 2016, and share two children together. Their bedroom biz has also been the subject of much intrigue.

Hugh Jackman Habla del quiebre con su mujer ante cámaras Son tiempos difíciles...
Hugh Jackman aún no está listo para hablar de la separación con su esposa, más allá de lo que ya dijo en un comunicado. Pero incluso cuando fue presionado por un fotógrafo, el tipo fue todo un caballero.
El actor fue abordado por un paparazzi el sábado en Nueva York, y acribillado a preguntas sobre su separación con Deborra-lee Furnes, con quien Hugh ha estado casado durante los últimos 27 años, y que salió de la nada el viernes en un sorprendente anuncio.
Echa un vistazo a lo que dijo al respecto en persona. El camarógrafo le preguntó a qué tipo de crecimiento personal se referían él y Deborra-lee, algo que aludieron en sus declaraciones, y Hugh realmente lo dejó dando la hora de una manera muy educada.
Para empezar, Hugh le dice que no se siente bien discutiendo el asunto en este momento, en lo que resultó ser una entrevista improvisada, lo cual es justo. Dice que aprecia los pensamientos del fotógrafo, pero cuando el tipo presiona un poco más, le dice sin rodeos que están pasando por un momento difícil.
El paparazzi se enfoca en "Deadpool 3" y le pregunta cuándo cree que podrán reanudar el rodaje, y Hugh le responde que tan pronto como sea posible, refiriéndose a la huelga en curso.
Como hemos dicho, el actor no podría haber sido más elegante. Teniendo en cuenta lo personal de la situación y la naturaleza privada de Hugh, manejó la interacción lo mejor que se podía.
Hugh y Debora-lee fueron una de esas parejas de larga data que todo el mundo pensó que resistiría el paso del tiempo, pero como hemos visto mucho este año ya, algunas de las relaciones más sólidas de Hollywood están viendo su fin.
Por tiempos más felices, Hugh. Que te vaya bien.

Hugh Jackman isn't quite ready to talk about his split from his wife beyond what he's already said in a statement -- but even when pressed by a photog ... the dude was all class.
The actor was approached by a pap Saturday in NYC, where he got peppered with questions about his separation from Deborra-lee Furness -- whom Hugh has been married to for the last 27 years ... and which came out of nowhere Friday in a shock announcement.
Check out what he had to say about it in person ... the videographer was wondering what sort of personal growth he and Deborra-lee would be pursuing -- something they alluded to in their remarks -- and Hugh actually gave the guy the time of day, in a very polite way.
For starters, HJ says he doesn't feel right discussing the matter right then and there in an impromptu interview -- which is fair. He says he appreciates the photog's thoughts, but when the guy pushes a bit further ... Hugh says flat out, they're going through a hard time.
The pap pivots to "Deadpool 3" and asks when he thinks they might be able to resume filming -- and Hugh says as soon as they're allowed to ... referencing the ongoing strike.
Like we said ... he couldn't have been more graceful here. Considering how personal of a situation it is and Hugh's private nature -- he handled this interaction as well as possible.
Hugh and Debora-lee were one of these longtime couples who everyone thought would stand the test of time ... but as we've seen a lot this year already, some of the sturdiest relationships in Hollywood are seeing their end.
Here's to happier times, Hugh. Be well.

Former lovers Drake and SZA are giving fans a taste of what's to come from the album "For All The Dogs" ... with the release of their "Slime You Out" duet, a modern-day battle of the sexes!!!
Drake fired off the new song on Friday ... which opens with him scolding women for lacking direction in their lives before belting out all the high notes about being in a low place with his lover.
SZA gets passed the baton midway through the track and holds her own for the women before Drake closes the track with sing-songy rap.
The two megastars have a bit of a testy past ... their dating history was made public after Drake leaked the info on his 2020 "Mr. Right Now" collab with 21 Savage, jeopardizing their potential working relationship ... but it's water under the bridge now!!!
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Drake went with a snap of Halle Berry getting slimed at the 2012 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards for the cover art, which he touched on in his bars ... "I'm slimin' you for them kid choices you made."
Sounds like Champagne Papi's still dealing with child's play.

Mauricio Umansky says he's got no beef with Morgan Wade, and despite persistent rumors the country star is dating his estranged wife Kyle Richards ... he tells us he loves Morgan.
We got Mauricio leaving his "Dancing With the Stars" rehearsal Thursday in L.A., and our photog asked if he's got a good relationship with Morgan.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Mauricio says he's a big fan of Morgan, and he's inviting her to one of his 'DWTS' tapings. Hell, we might've given the show's producers a great idea, too, when we asked him and his pro partner Emma Slater about possibly dancing to one of Morgan's songs.
Spoiler: They're open to it!
His reaction to the Morgan topic is super interesting -- remember, he and Kyle recently separated after 27 years of marriage, and there's been endless speculation Kyle and Morgan are an item.
For their part, Kyle and Morgan have had fun with the buzz. They filmed a music video, and this week they've been touring Paris, the City of Love, together.
By all accounts, Mauricio and Kyle have kept things very amicable since the separation ... they've been co-parenting their 4 kids and even took a family trip together to Positano.
MU seems genuinely happy and jovial in our clip -- and, if it's all an act, someone should hand him an Oscar ... because he doesn't seem threatened by Morgan at all.
One thing, though ... he might wanna bone up on Morgan's catalog of hits. 😉

Ex estrella de MLB Matt Williams Esposa le pide el divorcio
El campeón de la Serie Mundial, Matt Williams, está listo para ser un hombre soltero una vez más ... TMZ Sports ha indagado que su esposa acaba de solicitar el divorcio.
Erika Monroe presentó los documentos en el condado de Los Ángeles el miércoles, cuando ya han pasado más de 20 años desde que la pareja se casó inicialmente.
En los documentos, Monroe alude a "diferencias irreconciliables" como la razón de la separación. Estos también muestran que le pidió manutención conyugal a Williams, que según los informes ascienden a alrededor de $80 millones en sus 17 años de carrera MLB.
Nos pusimos en contacto con el abogado de Monroe para que nos hiciera algún comentario, pero hasta ahora no hay respuesta.
Williams, de 57 años, cinco veces All-Star y 378 jonrones en su carrera, se casó con Monroe, ex presentadora de noticias, el 15 de julio de 2003. Ambos copresentaron los programas previos a los partidos de los Diamondbacks de Arizona en los años posteriores a su boda.
La pareja también tuvo una hija. Aunque ahora es mayor de edad, por lo que la manutención no será un problema.
Williams, que actualmente es el entrenador de tercera base de los Padres de San Diego, había estado casado dos veces antes de comprometerse con Monroe en 2003.

World Series champion Matt Williams is set to be a single man once again ... TMZ Sports has learned his wife just filed for divorce.
Erika Monroe filed the docs in Los Angeles County on Wednesday ... over 20 years after the couple initially married.
In the documents, Monroe listed "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for the split. The docs show she also asked for spousal support from Williams, who reportedly made around $80 million in his 17-year MLB career.
We've reached out to Monroe's attorney for comment, but so far, no word back yet.
57-year-old Williams -- a five-time All-Star who hit 378 home runs in his career -- married Monroe, a former news anchor, on July 15, 2003. The two went on to cohost pregame shows for the Arizona Diamondbacks in the years after they got hitched.
The couple also had one daughter together ... although she's an adult now, so child support won't be an issue.
Williams -- who's currently the San Diego Padres third-base coach -- had been married two times before he and Monroe tied the knot in '03.

Tom Sandoval is a good dude who did a bad thing, but deserves a second chance -- so says another guy well-versed in reality TV romance ... Mr. Tyler Cameron.
We got the 'Bachelorette' alum Tuesday in L.A., and since he's fresh off hanging with Tom on FOX's "Special Forces: World's Toughest Test" ... we asked about Sandoval's chances of rekindling with his 'Vanderpump' costar Rachel Leviss.
If ya missed it, Tom wished Rachel happy birthday on social media, only for her to block him with quickness.
Ty says getting blocked is never a good sign for reconciliation -- speaking from personal experience -- so on the prospect of TS and RL getting back together ... he's not hopeful.
Now, on the issue of Tom's character ... Tyler says he actually thinks the guy's got a good heart. The fellas got to know each other not too long ago while competing on the FOX reality show.
Tyler explains to us what he learned about Tom while shooting the show, and it's pretty illuminating. Sounds like Tyler believes Tom should be shown some grace.
Lastly, Tyler offers some relationship advice and it's simple, yet effective. One gal at a time is the takeaway here -- and based on what we've seen from Tom these past couple days ... it appears he's already putting TC's tips to good use.
BTW, if you wanna see what Tom and Ty's dynamic was under grueling conditions -- watch "Special Forces: World's Toughest Test" premiering Monday, Sept. 25 at 9 PM ET/PT on FOX.

Joe Jonas Breaks Divorce Silence During Concert ... Don't Believe Everything You Hear
9/9/23
Joe Jonas squarely broke his silence over his impending divorce from Sophie Turner Saturday, saying it's been rough.
Joe and his bros performed in front of a packed audience at Dodger Stadium, where he took the mic and said this ...
“It’s been a tough week. I just wanna say, look, if you don’t hear it from these lips, don’t believe it. Okay? Thank you everyone for your love and support. Me and my family love you guys.”
As we reported, Joe filed for divorce Tuesday, saying his marriage was irretrievably broken. TMZ broke the story, a key reason he's ending the marriage is a difference in lifestyles ... and the straw that broke the camel's back was ring video/audio of Sophie, although we do not know the nature of what was seen/heard.
Joe got backlash on social media ... so addressing the divorce was not unexpected.
Joe and Sophie issued a joint statement ... "After four wonderful years of marriage we have mutually decided to amicably end our marriage. There are many speculative narratives as to why ..."
Jonas Bros fans care more about the music than the divorce ... so it seems from the receptions they got in Vegas Friday and L.A. Saturday night.

Jenelle Evans' first husband suffered an apparent overdose at his home in North Carolina ... and his wife's frantic call to dispatchers is chilling.
TMZ obtained audio of the 911 call Courtland Rogers' wife placed Aug. 28 from their home in Wilmington, and she says Courtland is showing signs of an overdose ... describing him as being naked on the toilet while making concerning gurgling sounds.
Courtland's wife says he locked himself in the bathroom while she was out of the house with their kids ... but she broke down the door to find him unresponsive.
The dispatcher tells Courtland's wife to try getting him off the toilet, and lay him flat on his back on the floor, but he's too heavy for her to move and she resorts to trying CPR.
As Courtland's wife desperately tries to revive him, she screams for him to wake up ... and tells the dispatcher she's unsure what drugs he took and there's no Narcan available to resuscitate him.
Ultimately, paramedics arrive ... and that's when the call stops.
Our law enforcement sources say Courtland survived, and no drugs or paraphernalia were found on scene when authorities arrived.
Courtland -- who was married to the former "Teen Mom" star from 2012 to 2014 -- has been open in the past about his drug abuse ... estimating he's overdosed 5 times, and admitting heroin's ruined his life.

Kim Zolciak My Marriage Isn't Over ... It's a Work in Progress
Kim Zolciak seems to be in full-blown denial -- or else Kroy has had a radical change of heart -- because she's talking like her marriage is still a work in progress, despite the fact her husband has filed for divorce and wants to sell the family home.
Kim posted, "I'm living here not going anywhere! Been working on our marriage and have been living as husband and wife. The lies daily are too much."
Thing is ... Kroy Biermann has not only filed for divorce ... he wants the kids. He's accused her of sinking the family into a deep financial hole, in part because of her gambling.
Kroy has been trying to get Kim to sign off on selling the family home ... giving they have an IRS debt of more than a mil, and lawsuits totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars in unpaid personal debts, including a $150,000 SAKS bill.
Kroy's lawyers have told TMZ the divorce is still on, but Kim seems to think it's all salvageable.
Kroy recently locked Kim out of the house, which caused her to call the cops, so things are clearly tense.

Joe Budden Cardi & Meg's New Single Stinks ... Y'all Need Pardi's 🖊️ Back
Joe Budden thinks Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion's new single is a 2-pack of ass, and nothing compared to their last collab... arguing it's missing a key element, or a man rather.
The rapper shared his thoughts on CB and MTS's latest song, "Bongos," in his latest episode of "The Joe Budden Podcast" -- and, per usual, he was unfiltered in breaking it down. As he explains, he just doesn't feel "Bongos" has quite the pizzazz that their last single did.
Of course, he's talking about "WAP" ... which charted well when it released, and which kinda captured the zeitgeist at the time. This time around though, JB says the magic is gone.
The reason he thinks "Bongos" won't have as much staying power is because Pardison Fontaine -- aka, Pardi -- wasn't in the mix this time around as a collaborator, or so he assumes (more on this later). If you didn't know, Pardi had writing credits on "WAP" ... in addition to other Cardi and Meg songs, and he's been a regular writer of CB's lately.
Of course, he also dated Meg for a good while last year ... that is, until they split up.
There's still no official word on why she and Pardi parted, but it's clear she's moved on with other men -- having been snapped out in public with different high-profile dudes of late.
Anyway, Joe mistakenly says Pardi appears to be missing here -- 'cause 'Bongos,' to him, just isn't it. But as it turns out, the dude is a credited writer on this song as well. JB might've flubbed in that regard, but his larger point here is ... 'Bongos' isn't as high on the "ratchet" level as previous entries of theirs, and he feels like Cardi and Meg missed the mark.
Time will tell how "Bongos" does performance-wise ... it was literally just released yesterday, to a lot of fanfare. One notable thing about it that's getting buzz is the production cost -- a reported $2 million budget just to cook it up. Also, they're gonna perform it at the VMAs.
BTW, "Bongos" is the start of Cardi's rollout for her long-awaited 2nd album. Based on how Joe's already reacting to one track, it seemingly doesn't bode well for the rest of the project.

7:03 PM PT -- A rep for Threlkel Botanicals tells TMZ ... "On Monday, August 28th, Jeff Sophir, owner of Jim Threlkel Botanicals, was contacted by Lisa Hochstein, a long-term client and good friend, to relocate several interior botanicals from her current residence to a new property. During the scheduled relocation, Mr. Hochstein arrived at the property, verbally berated Jim Threlkel staff and blocked their vehicle with his car while threatening to contact local law enforcement.
"Instead, Mr. Sophir contacted law enforcement and they were dispatched to the property. Mr. Hochstein was ordered to leave the premises and the botanicals in question were subsequently removed."
Famed plastic surgeon Lenny Hochstein is dragging a Florida plant store to court ... claiming the company made off with a bunch of plants from his home, years after he paid for them.
According to a new lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, Lenny says he dropped thousands of dollars on plants from Threlkel Botanicals back in 2020 ... but he claims the store started removing plants and trees from his Miami mansion last week while his estranged wife Lisa Hochstein was moving out.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Lenny, who is divorcing 'The Real Housewives of Miami' star, claims he directly told the store and its owner, Jim Threlkel, not to take the plants from the property ... but Lenny says they were removed anyway.
In the docs, Lenny is crying foul ... he says removing the plants he bought amounts to theft and trespassing.
Lenny also claims Jim acted with "felonious intent and knew he was taking property he was not entitled to."
Lisa and Lenny's divorce has been pretty nasty -- he's already engaged to another woman -- and now Threlkel Botanicals is being pulled into the fray.
Lenny's going after the store to get the plants back and/or damages, and he claims those damages exceed $50K!!!
We reached out to Threlkel Botanicals ... so far no word back.
