Slater filed for divorce in New York City on July 26, per TMZ. The reason for his split from Jay was not listed. PEOPLE reached out to both Slater and Jay for comment at the time.

Although Slater's Instagram is now private, he previously shared various posts with Jay that included a post on Mother's Day that was "liked" by Grande, 30, and read, "Happy first Mother’s Day to the most loving caring and wonderful mom/person in the world. - from me and this little guy."

The latter post came a few months after Slater revealed he and Jay had welcomed their first child together by sharing a photo of a onesie that read “Wicked Cute.”

He also celebrated their fourth wedding anniversary by sharing a tribute that referred to Jay as his "best friend" and included the text, "4 years married, 10 years together. And this is easily the best (and most *bizarre*) year yet."

Grande separated from her ex-husband Dalton Gomez, 28, in July 2023 nearly two years of marriage. A source previously told PEOPLE that the pair "have been quietly and lovingly working on their friendship" since their split. They settled their divorce in early October 2023, just weeks after filing.

Since Grande and Slater’s romance became public, the couple has tried to keep their relationship out of the spotlight and keep things low-key.

As a source told PEOPLE in September 2023, “They are just trying to navigate their new relationship in private."
