Ariana Grande beau Ethan Slater requests ex Lilly Jay to let him co-parent their son after divorce

Ariana Grande's new beau Ethan Slater is parting ways from his wife Lilly Jay but he still wants to be a part of their son's life. 

As reported by TMZ, the Fosse/Verdon star "desperately" wants to co-parent his one-year-old son with his wife, to whom he was married to for two years.

Slater is said to be in touch with Jay to talk to her about their son on a daily basis.

The outlet shared that the actor spent his time with his little boy in London after he had parted ways from Jay as he is “determined” to have a major presence in his life.

It is not clear what Jay has to say about co-parenting with Slater but it seems like the actor won’t give up on his son easily despite his new romance with Ariana Grande.

He even asked Jay to issue a joint statement regarding them co-parenting their boy, however, she was reluctant to release any kind of statement at the time.

This comes after it was reported that Jay spoke to Page Six about her former husband’s romance with the singer, saying, “[Ariana’s] the story really. Not a girl’s girl.”

“My family is just collateral damage,” she added.

However, as per TMZ, Jay has assured Slater that she has no idea where various media leaks were coming from and he was surprised to read her statement to Page Six.

According to the publication, Slater had no idea what it meant when the news outlet told her she was on the record while she made her remarks.
