Ariana Grande’s past has come back to haunt her amid her new relationship with her “Wicked” co-star, Ethan Slater.
Naya Rivera, the late “Glee” star, once accused the singer years ago of moving in on her fiancé, rapper Big Sean.
In her 2016 tome, “Sorry Not Sorry: Dreams, Mistakes, and Growing Up,” Rivera claimed she ran into Grande at Big Sean’s home before he called off his wedding to the “Glee” actress and started dating the pop star.
“On the one day that he was back in LA, he said he didn’t want to see me. But since she had a key, she let herself in to his house,” Rivera wrote.
“I walk in, go downstairs, and guess what little girl is sitting cross-legged on the couch listening to music? … It rhymes with ‘Smariana Schmande,’” she recalled.
Big Sean and Grande dated in 2014, after he split from Rivera.
Grande has never publicly addressed Rivera’s accusation, and her rep still is not commenting on the claim all these years later.

Her reps have also been publicly silent on the singer’s recent alleged relationship with new lover Slater, who is estranged from his wife, Lilly Jay, and a father to a one-year-old.
Sources previously told Page Six that Jay was “completely blindsided” by Slater’s new relationship.
“It’s horrible. They were high school sweethearts. They have a baby! She’s a wreck,” they said of Jay’s state.

Slater, 31, has since filed for divorce, and friends of the former couple believe Grande, 30, is the reason since “nothing appeared wrong between them.”

Meanwhile, Jay believes her family has become “collateral damage,” telling Page Six exclusively, “[Ariana’s] the story, really. Not a girl’s girl. My family is just collateral damage.”
Reps for Slater have not commented on the relationship.
Slater plays a Munchkin in “Wicked,” who falls in love with Grande’s character, Glinda the Good Witch.
