Ariana Grande and Ricky Alvarez put their revived romance on display in New York City on Thursday, with TMZ reporting it obtained a photo of the pair in a very close street-side moment.
In the image described by TMZ, Grande is standing on her toes with one arm around Alvarez’s shoulder. Alvarez, meanwhile, has one hand placed on her backside as the two appear wrapped up in each other near Lincoln Square.
The photo is credited to Littleredjoyphotography, and TMZ identified the people in it as Grande and Alvarez. The outlet said Grande was also holding a dog on a leash during the outing.
TMZ reported the dog appeared to be Toulouse, Grande’s pooch. The outlet also said the dog appeared to be relieving itself during the couple’s public PDA moment.
The New York sightings keep coming
The street photo was not the only New York glimpse of the pair this week. TMZ said Grande and Alvarez were later seen walking through Central Park, and the outlet had already published images from that stroll.
Those Central Park photos showed the two spending time together during what TMZ described as a romantic walk. The latest street image adds another public sign that the pair are not keeping their reunion hidden.
TMZ previously reported that Grande and Alvarez are back together. The outlet also reported that their renewed relationship comes months after Grande’s breakup from Ethan Slater.
Alvarez has been described by TMZ as Grande’s ex, making the new sightings part of a rekindled romance rather than a brand-new pairing. The outlet’s recent coverage has tracked the pair from the renewed relationship report to their Central Park appearance and now the more intimate New York street photo.
Grande, one of pop’s biggest names, and Alvarez have not been quoted in TMZ’s report about the photographed PDA. The details made public so far come from the outlet’s photos and its reporting on the couple’s status.
For now, the visible takeaway is straightforward: Grande and Alvarez are spending time together in New York, and TMZ’s latest photo shows them looking plenty comfortable as their relationship gets another run in the spotlight.
