Ariana Grande and Ricky Alvarez made their first red-carpet appearance together at the New York premiere of Focker-in-Law at the Beacon Theatre on Wednesday, November 11, 2026. The couple dated for a little over a year in 2015-16.
Grande wore a white-and-gray plaid spaghetti-strap ballgown. Alvarez wore a black sport coat, a white collared shirt and jeans. In videos from the red carpet, Grande waved to fans and took photos on her own and with Alvarez. She pulled her recently shortened bob back into a ponytail and finished it with a white satin bow.
Focker-in-Law is the fourth film in the Fockers series, which began with Meet the Parents in 2000. Grande plays Olivia Jones, a life coach and former FBI hostage negotiator and the girlfriend of Henry Focker, played by Skyler Gisondo. Henry is the adult son of Greg (Ben Stiller) and Pam (Teri Polo). Robert De Niro plays Jack Byrnes. The film arrives in theaters on November 25.
Speaking on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon about joining the cast, Grande said, “So it was very surreal.”
Grande and Alvarez reconnected in June and made their relationship public on Instagram in August.
