    The boy is hers — and she’s fiercely defending him.

    One year after Ariana Grande’s romance with “Wicked” co-star Ethan Slater made headlines amid their respective divorces, the actress clapped back at criticism.

    “The most disappointing part was to see so many people believe the worst version of [our relationship],” the “Victorious” alum, 31, told Vanity Fair in a joint cover story with Cynthia Ervio, published Monday.

    Ariana Grande sets the record straight about the cosmetic procedures she’s tried — and which she’s ‘open’ to

    “There couldn’t be a less accurate depiction of a human being than the one that the tabloids spread about him,” Grande insisted of her partner. “No one on this earth tries harder or spreads themselves thinner to be there for the people that he loves and cares about.

    “There is no one on this earth with a better heart,” she concluded. “And that is something that no bulls–t tabloid can rewrite in real life.”

    Grande went on to clarify that she is not the “evil diva” some portray her to be.
