Ariana Grande and Dalton Gomez's Divorce Settlement Revealed: Iron-Clad Prenup

(DailyMail.com) - The finer details of Ariana Grande and Dalton Gomez's multi-million dollar divorce settlement have been revealed. 

The couple are said to have finalised their divorce last week after two years of marriage. 

The settlement, which states Ariana will not be single until March 19, 2024, was said to have been smooth as the singer, 30, and Dalton, 28, had an iron-clad prenup. 

Ariana, who has an estimated $240million net worth, has since moved on with boyfriend Ethan Slater, while Dalton was pictured kissing actress Maika Monroe earlier this week. 

Here we take a look at their divorce settlement from the sale of their $6million Los Angeles home to the strict rules in place... 

Dalton to get $1.25 million payout 

Instead of spousal support, the real estate agent is receiving a single check from the Grammy winner - with the payment being worth a total of $1,250,000. It is also tax-free. 

The singer will additionally pay $25k of Dalton's attorney fees.

Court documents state, according The Blast: 'The parties acknowledge that (Dalton) has been provided with thirty (30) days rent-free use of the Los Angeles Family Residence…and a tax-free payment of $1,250,000 from (Ariana)…in lieu of any spousal support payments being due.

'The parties acknowledge that there shall be no permanent spousal support payable by one party to the other party in this matter. This waiver of permanent spousal support is non-modifiable, irrespective of any changes in the parties’ respective health or financial circumstances.' 

LA home will be sold with proceeds split but they have to pay off their $6million mortgage

According to reports, the couple have agreed they will pay off their $6million mortgage for their Los Angeles home. 

They will then put the stunning property on the market and split the sale of the mansion 50/50.  

Photos and recordings to be kept private 

Per their settlement agreement, both parties are barred from releasing or publishing 'any photograph (and related negatives), tape, film or like embodiments in all forms whether now or hereafter created or other record or recording of any aspect of any activity in or about any home, office or other property owned.' 

Tell-all book ban  

Additionally, Dalton is prohibited from writing a tell-all book about their relationship or doing any interview about the 'details of their marriage.' 

Specifically, he cannot 'give any interview, write, appear in connection with, or assist or cooperate in the preparation or presentation of any book, article, interview, program or other production or publication of any kind whatsoever concerning the other party.' 

Ariana has also agreed to the restrictions and confidentiality provision, which the documents points out 'shall be fully enforceable by each party.' 

Belongings and earnings

Documents state Ariana will keep her belongings including a painting by renowned artist Yoshitomo Nara. 

Dalton also has a painting by the artist which he will keep. 

Yoshitomo holds the record as the most expensive Japanese artist. The large scale painting Knife Behind Back (2000) sold in Hong Kong for HK$195.7m (US$25m), nearly five times its record.

In April 2021, the painting Frog Girl was sold in Spring auction for $12.5 million. 

Court documents also reveal Ariana will keep any 'earnings and accumulations at any time including prior to the parties’ marriage, during the parties’ marriage, and after the parties’ date of separation'. 

Despite the pair's divorce being finalised, a source informed the entertainment tabloid that there is no bad blood between Ariana and Gomez - who tied the knot in 2021. 

'There is still a strong mutual love and respect between Ariana and Dalton and they wanted to make sure everything was done right in lockstep with one another,' the insider expressed. 

The former Nickelodeon star filed her divorce paperwork last month on September 18 - with Dalton also filing the same day. 

In documents previously obtained by TMZ, Ariana's lawyer, Laura Wasser, had cited the reason for their divorce as 'irreconcilable differences' with the date of separation listed as February 20, 2023.

Sources informed the outlet that all was 'worked out' between the former couple 'before going to the courthouse' and added the actress plans to 'cut Dalton a check' to officially dissolve the marriage.

The pair notably filed for divorce months after their listed date of separation, and an insider explained to TMZ that the reasoning was so that they could 'iron out details and settle.'

According to the source, Grande and Gomez have 'no hard feelings' and added 'they've been really caring and respectful of one another every step of this process.'

The Grammy winner and the real estate agent first began dating in January 2020 and the pair became engaged in December the same year.

In May 2021, the two said 'I do' during an intimate yet romantic wedding ceremony at her Montecito home. However, earlier this year in July, news of their shock split came to light.

A source close to the pair told DailyMail.com at the time of the breakup news that, 'Ariana and Dalton have nothing but respect for one another. They're still friends and want to remain that way moving forward.'

'There was no cheating, no resentment between them, the marriage just simply didn't work out. These things happen,' the insider added.

According to Page Six, Dalton had flown out to London to visit Ariana - who had been filming the live adaptation of Wicked since December 2022 - in an attempt to repair their marriage but it 'didn't work out.'

Since their split, the songstress has been romantically linked to actor and her fellow Wicked co-star, Ethan Slater - who also filed for divorce from his wife, Lilly Jay, in July, leaving her 'devastated.'

The two had initially tied the knot with Jay back in 2018 and were high school sweethearts. In August 2022, the pair welcomed their first baby together - a son.

While speaking exclusively to DailyMail.com, Lilly revealed that she has been looking on the positive side and putting her main focus on her baby boy after reportedly being 'blindsided' by the split.

'I am focused on rebuilding a life for our son,' she explained. 'This is what I am trying to do and this is my only focus.'

Earlier last month, a separate source informed DailyMail.com that both Ariana and Ethan are now living together as he prepares for the Broadway production of Spamalot.

A source recently told People that their romance was 'blown out of proportion' in the public eye and stated the pair 'didn't begin seeing each other until after both parties were separated, respectfully.'
