Ariana Grande and Ricky Álvarez are shown sharing an intimate kiss in rehearsal footage from Grande’s “Eternal Sunshine Tour” in London. Multiple outlets describe the moment as happening during wrap-up or rehearsals, drawing attention online.

The reports also place the clip within a broader context of renewed romance speculation. Times of India says the pair previously dated from 2015 to 2016 and notes rumors about a reconciliation that gain momentum in June. It adds that Grande appears to reference their relationship during rehearsals by changing lyrics to a popular song.

The New York Post frames the same relationship narrative around a rekindling that it says begins in July, following Grande’s reported split from Ethan Slater. Both accounts treat the kiss as evidence of the renewed connection, but they differ on the timing emphasis, with one highlighting June-based speculation and the other focusing on the July rekindling after Slater.
