‘People think we’re secretly married,’ Grande said, before diving into what she refers to as ‘the Gelphie stuff,’ a nod to the internet’s collection of fan fiction and art that imagines a sapphic romance between Elphaba and Glinda.
‘I wish I could unsee some things. I mean, wow, I had a feeling, but I didn’t know it would be on this scale or this graphic.’
Still, the love lives of both actresses have sparked quite a stir.

Meanwhile, Ariana got personal about her parents’ relationship during a recent appearance on WTF podcast, revealing how she played a role in mending their bond after their split.
She shared that she ‘forced’ her mom, Joan Grande, and dad, Edward Butera, to reconnect and become friends again. ‘They’re not together, but they’re best friends,’ she said.
‘It took 18 years and it took me forcing it. I forced them to communicate again. I really did.’
Ariana explained that her parents separated when she was young, but it wasn’t until around her 24th birthday in 2017 that she stepped in.
‘I remember just kind of being at this pivotal point where I was just like, “You guys, I love you both so much. It’s been such a long time. Figure it the f— out,”’ she recalled. ‘Like hello, it’s been 18 years. I’m 80 [years old]. Please get over it. And they did.’
The result? They’re ‘best friends now,’ she said with pride. ‘I can’t separate them. It’s the best thing in the whole world.’
Ariana believes that her parents finally realized that their love for her outweighed any past grievances.
‘I guess they just had like, some sort of beautiful conversation or realized that like, how much they love me is so much louder than whatever nonsense happened way back when.
‘It really is beautiful, and if only they had the tools that I feel like we have now, this generation, with therapy and embracing that, maybe it could have happened sooner, but it was just the perfect thing…. It makes me really happy.’
