Overview
- Photographs published July 6 show Grande and Ricky Alvarez leaving a Whole Foods in Boca Raton on Saturday with Alvarez helping carry grocery bags and loading them into a vehicle.
- The July 4 outing follows several recent public encounters between the two, including Alvarez attending Grande’s Austin concert where she altered a lyric referencing him.
- TMZ and Page Six cite unnamed sources who say the meetings are friendly and that there is "nothing romantic" currently between Grande and Alvarez.
- The appearances come after Grande’s split from Ethan Slater and recall her brief 2015–2016 relationship with Alvarez, a history outlets note as context for current attention.
- No representative for Grande has confirmed a reunion, and coverage rests on paparazzi photos and unnamed-source statements, so further sightings or an official comment would likely change how outlets interpret the meetings.
