The Broadway star was born earlier this month candid about his relationship with Grande and told GQ it was “difficult” bringing his new relationship to the public.
“I think it was very difficult to have things in your private life commented on and viewed by the public,” Slater said at the time.
“There were a lot of big changes in private lives that actually happened, so it’s very difficult to have people who don’t know anything about what’s happening comment and speculate and then get things wrong about the people you love. So to address that part of it, it feels very difficult.
