Here's the "behind the scenes" footage:
Jan 28, 2025 - Ariana grande talks suspiciously about making videos with christian breslauer: ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฉ
“I really feel like I found my, lifelong music video collaborator in [him], I just plan on continuing with him forever, when there's something to do, it will be with him. I love him. I love it, it’s so collaborative, we speak the same language, we love all the same references, we just kind of were destined to meet, you know, when you meet like a creative person and you're like, ‘where have you been my whole life?’ it’s just kind of this cosmic collusion.”
March 31, 2025 - Chris posts these pics of him and Ariana together, where, again, Ariana is way too touchy. ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฉ
April 23, 2025 - fan account share pics of Ariana and Christian on set for ‘twilight zone’ and ‘supernatural’
Aug 27, 2025 - Christian shared the VMAs voting in his stories with a picture of Ariana... ๐ฉIt could be a little flirty to always be taking selfies together like this.
Sep 7, 2025 - ariana grande & christian breslauer accepting ‘video of the year’ at the #VMAs where Ariana and Chris HOLD HANDS๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฉ and then christian gives a shoutout to his wife since they had their first born baby ๐ video.
This is sus because Ariana has a history of going for taken men with a newborn baby.! also in the awards photoshoot, they're way too touchy.๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฉ
And it's weird how Christian leans in closer to Ariana than his wife. And it's weird how Ariana's dress is all over him...๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฉ
The body language....
Jun 6, 2026 - Christian directs the music video for "Hate that I made you love me," starring Ariana Grande, and this "behind the scenes" footage was filmed:
Jun 6, 2026 - Christian Breslauer via Instagram Stories, where he states that "Ariana Grande" and him "have put so much love into every single detail." while having "the most challenging and rewarding experiences" of his life. ๐ฉHaving your first kid is hard, yeah.
Somewhere arounnd this time, this photo is also taken of Ariana and Christian together, with his arm on her back. ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฉ
This is suspicious because when Ariana stole Ethan from Lily, there were pictures of Ethan holding her back, too, despite walking with others. ๐ฉ
Click here for a complete timeline of Ariana's homewrecking scandel with Ethan.
Here's more proof that Christian is at her shows. On Ariana's instagram post, you can clearly see Christian in her video, plus he's tagged on the post, and he even commented on it, "The best time ever." ๐ฉ
He's just, like, there, at Ariana's concerts, with her ex.๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฉ
TO BE FAIR, he might be directing "behind the scenes on tour" movie, but if he's not, then this might be a red flag. His wife might have joined him for one show, but she doesn't seem to be there for most of them?
And here Ariana is liking the director's wife's instagram post and commenting, and then stealing her outfit. This is suspicious because when Ariana stole Ethan from Lily, there were pictures of Ethan holding her back, too, despite walking with others. ๐ฉ

- On the left, we see his wife wearing red&white plaid...
- and then on the right we see Ariana wearing red&white plaid, but with her tit out and a tag on the post to draw attention to it. ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฉ
To be fair, Ariana posted her fit before the wife did, but the wife's fit was from a brand-deal, and if Ariana and the Chris and his wife are in cahoots, it would make sense Ariana would know about this outfit before it was posted...So take this with a grain of salt, but keep it in mind because it might be a red flag. ๐ฉ
This is sus because Ariana has a habit of copying the girlfriends of the men she steals!
This is also suspicous because when Ariana stole Ethan from Lilly, she went and lovebombed his Instagram and commented nice things under Ethan's posts with Lilly.

Junee 12-ISH, 2026 - Christian directs the music video for the song "petal," starring Ariana Grande. This "behind the scenes" video was filmed, where Ariana says "wow I love you" to Chris, and "I'm with the boys," and they touch a little. For a moment she also tries to touch hands. Very touchy with Chris, and he does not seem to always reciprocate.
At the end of filming on Day 2, Ariana gives Chris a long, full body hug and says "I love you" while giving everyone else short side hugs...She also asked him to watch her change...
A redditor says: I think even though he's shitty for reciprocating her fawning, I'm thinking she may be abusing her star power since he kind of has to go along with it if he wants to keep this gig and level of visibility
Jun 26, 2026 - Ariana Grande was spotted with her ex-boyfriend Ricky Alvarez AND ALSO Christian Breslauer in Texas ๐๐ฉ
Jul 25, 2026 - “This is easily one of the most beautiful and important films I've ever made.” - Christian Breslauer on the “petal” music video. ๐
Chris calls Ariana his "First & Favorite scene partner" with a heart hands ๐ซถ emoji ! ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฉ

Oh, and Christian also leaves all these gushy comments on Ariana's Instagram posts.
August 8th? 2026 - Christian says he "loves" Ariana in an instagram comment. ๐ฉ Sus!

This redditor speculates that Ariana Grande's new song, "big feelings," is about Christian. Here's the lyrics:
Now, when you look at the music video for her song, "petal," you'll see at the end, the restauraunt is called "big feelings," ๐ฉwhich you can see on the window as the camera pans out. Meanwhile, Christian the director pops up and says, "GIVE ME DREAMY, HOPEFUL..." ๐ฉ
"Yeah, I think I give him big feelings (Mm) ๐ฉ
Big feelings (Mm)
I know I give him big, big
There are worse things that I could do" ๐ฉ
Dreamy and hopeful are big feelings, okay. As in, "Give me dreamy, give me hopeful, give me big feelings." ๐ฉ
The redditor goes on to explain, "Obviously he can’t say 'give me big feelings' out right. In the song she says, 'Yeah I think I give him big feelings… they’re only big feelings. There are worse things that I could do.'
"I think it’s an actress/director dynamic and flirtation/potential affair double entendre. It’s giving she wrote this song specifically about him and is dropping an Easter egg about it. But also it’s so obvious it could be bait."

August 5th, 2026 - Christian was spotted again with Ricky at Ariana Grande's concert. ๐ฉ
His wife is catching on, according to this blind item...
Oh, also, Chris is following Ariana Grande's therapist on Instagram? ๐ฉ
August 6th, 2026 - Christian was posed on Ariana's make brand's Instagram, R.E.M. Beauty...filmed from Ariana's dressing room on tour. ๐ฉ Here's the vid on TikTok. He appears at 0:44
Hanging out in the dressing room is a red flag ๐ฉ, because:
1) it's a place where Ariana gets dressed and undressed, and
2) when she stole a man (Christian Fortune) she had him in her dressing room, too (link to that story here).

๐ฉ In a video, Christian says him and Ariana are “Creative soul mates”...
link to video ๐ฉ

In the full video, he also talks about "having butterflies" on set. ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฉ
People were speculating that Ariana's new love song, Bad thing (Bunny Hop) is about Chris.. Look at these lyrics:
"Yeah, I like your butterflies ๐ฉ
Thะต kind you've been making with your hands"
^ this lyric is sus because Chris said being on set gave 'em butterflies.
“I’ll be your student, fluent ๐ฉ
Won’t you teach me I insist” ๐ฉ
^ this lyric is sus because Ariana is Chris's student of an actress
"Meet you by the stairecase where weFell in love, let's do it twice" ๐ฉ
^ this lyric is sus because Ariana and Chris filmed a scene by the staircase in their first music video together, "Yes, and?"
"This is a bad thingThis is a bad, bad thingOh, baby, you're a real nightmareAnd it's super unfair how muchThis is a bad thingThis is a bad, bad thing" ๐ฉ
^ this lyric is sus because Ariana saying that her love interest in the song is a "bad thing," and if Chris is the love interest, that's true, because he's married with a family and cheating is wrong.
Also people think her new song "Stay" is about Chris, too:
August, 2026 - Chris posted this... Ariana front and center. ๐ฉ
"Having some wholesome summer fun with my friends ๐ค๐"It's strange how he has the cringe emoji ๐ with emphasis on the word "friends" ๐ฉ
August 8th, 2026 - a blind item alleges that Ariana is dating her ex Ricky as a distraction from her affair with Chris. Take these blind items with a grain of salt, always, because anybody can submit one.
Chris posts Ariana some more. To be fair, he posts about other people too.
August 13, 2026 - Chris's wife is in NYC, while Chris is presumed to be with Ariana on tour? Not sure. On the 5th of august, Ariana was in chicago, and then there was a week break before her london shows starting on the 15th. It is notable that Ariana has not pressed "like" on any more of Chris's wife's IG posts and that she has removed her past likes.
August 15, 2026 - Chris posts an IG story of himself jogging in the UK, which is where Ariana preformed the last week of her tour
August 17 2026 ish - There chris is, in Arianas dressing room ๐๐๐๐
August 22, 2026 - Chris is re-united with his baby and possibly wife
That's all we have for now!
... to be continued ๐คฎ๐คฎ๐คฎ๐คฎ๐คข๐คฎ๐คฎ๐คฎ
