A Los Angeles Superior Court judgment dissolving their marriage became official on Tuesday, six months after the Ariana, 30, filed a petition to divorce the 28-year-old real estate broker.
The two separated more than a year ago, according to court papers, and because the pair had a pre-nuptial agreement, no children and no significant legal disputes in the split, it allowed the divorce to move quickly and cleanly through the court system.
The terms of their settlement were agreed upon in October and the couple only had to wait the required six months before a judge’s order could take effect.
Under the agreement, Ariana will make a onetime payment of $1,250,000 to her ex-husband with no future alimony.

She will also give him half of the proceeds of the sale of their Los Angeles home, and will pay up to $25,000 toward his attorneys’ fees.
Like the vast majority of California divorces, Arian’s petition cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split.
The couple began dating in January 2020, and quarantined together during the pandemic.
They appeared together in the video for the Justin Bieber charity single Stuck With U in May of that year, and announced their engagement in December.
The couple were married in a tiny private ceremony at Ariana’s home in Montecito, California, on May 15, 2021.
Their split was announced in July 2023, with Ariana filing for divorce in October.
Soon after their split became public she moved on to a controversial relationship with her current boyfriend and Wicked co-star Ethan Slater.
Ariana doubled down on her shock split from Dalton by deleting all photos of their wedding from Instagram.
Sources said that they tried to fix their marriage ‘months ago but it ‘failed.’ It was also claimed Dalton had flown to London in January in a last-ditch effort to save the pair’s marriage.

She sent fans into a frenzy following the release of her single Eternal Sunshine, as they speculated that her husband Dalton might have cheated on her.
Listeners were quick to note cryptic lyrics in the titular track may have accused her spouse of being unfaithful.
Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, fans claimed that if Dalton was unfaithful, Ariana ‘deserves an apology’ after she faced months of accusations of being a homewrecker for her romance with Ethan Slater.
The lyrics in question were: ‘So now we play our separate scenes // Now, now she’s in my bed, layin’ on your chest // Now I’m in my head, wonderin’ how it ends.’
Fans were quick to read between the lines, and rushed to social media to claim it may mean that Dalton cheated on Ariana during their marriage.
