US singer, Ariana Grande and her husband Dalton Gomez have finalised their divorce after almost three years of marriage.

Ariana Grande had filed for divorce in 2023, citing “irreconcilable differences”.

According to the Associated Press, a Los Angeles Superior Court judge granted the divorce on Tuesday.

Grande and Gomez, who split earlier in 2023, had a prenuptial agreement and had no children together. This, combined with the lack of serious legal problems, made for a quick resolution.

The settlement, which was reached in October, comprised a one-time payment of $1.25 million by Grande to Gomez, with no future alimony.

The pop diva, with an estimated net worth of $240 million, will receive half of the earnings from the sale of their Los Angeles house and contribute up to $25,000 for Gomez’s legal bills.

Ariana Grande and Dalton Gomez started dating in January 2020 and quarantined themselves during the COVID-19 pandemic.
