The 30-year-old pop star's Christmas was apparently a merry one, as Ariana was spotted with her new boo and her father, Ed Butera.

On Tuesday, Page Six released pics of the Love Me Harder singer and the 31-year-old Broadway star in New York City grabbing dinner with her dad.

The SpongeBob star opted for an all black athletic fit that featured Nike tennis shoes and a North Face jacket.

Ari's dad tagging along has raised some eyebrows. Does this mean Mr. Grande approves of the Spamalot star?

The pair's controversial romance had fans shook this year, and with 2023 coming to an end, who knows what 2024 has store for Ari and Ethan!
