A snap showed the lovebirds kissing at the crosswalk of a quiet street.

Dalton, 28, wrapped his arm around the actress’s waist while Maika stood on tiptoe and placed her hands behind his neck.

Other photos appeared to document their weekend together, dining at various restaurants and showing off their matching bright blue socks.

The latest photo captured the pair cuddling on a sofa while enjoying a boat ride in the sea.

STAY COMFORTABLE

Maika cuddled close to her man for warmth, each of them wearing black shorts and hoodies.

They looked happy as they smiled softly at the camera, with the sunlight shining on them.

The It Follows star captioned her post with a shooting star emoji.

Dalton and Maika first sparked dating rumors in October 2023 when they were spotted packing on the PDA, days after the real estate mogul filed for divorce from his ex Ariana, 30.

Since then, they have been spotted on several public outings, although they have not officially confirmed that they are a couple until now.

Meanwhile, Grande made her relationship with her Wicked co-star Ethan Slater, 31, known to the world when they were photographed on Saturday watching the 2024 Stanley Cup Final at Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise, Florida.

The couple seemed to be enjoying Ethan’s attention, which was apparently more focused on his girlfriend than the game itself.

They each wore t-shirts rooting for the Florida Panthers, with Grande adding her cat ears to her ensemble.

Days earlier, the God Is A Woman singer supported the actor on the opening night of his New York residency.

US Sun exclusively reported that Grande attended the Broadway star’s solo performance at Café Carlyle.

A source who was at the event revealed that the Dangerous Woman singer remained “discreet and was sitting in the corner with an entourage.”

They also said that Ariana disappeared and quickly left after the show without interacting with Ethan, who was mingling with other attendees.

Ariana and Ethan met while filming 2022’s Wicked, and they reportedly became romantically involved last summer.

By this point, the couple was separated from their loved ones – Ariana to Dalton, and Ethan to his ex-wife and mother of their child, Lilly Jay.

Their relationship became public in July 2023 when Ethan and Lilly Jay filed for divorce.

Dalton finally filed for divorce in September 2023 – seven months after they initially split.

The divorce was finalized in March 2024, after three years of marriage.

CHEATING ALLEGATIONS

Earlier this year, Ariana was accused by her ex-sister-in-law of insinuating in her new song Eternal Sunshine that Dalton was unfaithful in their marriage.

Dalton’s sister also complained that fans were only getting “one side of the story” and that her brother was silenced when talking about the issue.

This left fans convinced that Dalton might have signed an NDA, prohibiting him from divulging details about his and Ariana’s split.

Neither Dalton nor Ariana have confirmed or denied any allegations of cheating or what led to the split.

The former couple quietly got married in 2021 after a year of dating.
