A source close to the couple told Us Weekly that things are better than ever between the "inseparable" pair, who are "living in bliss."
“Ariana and Ethan have written a whole new book together,” the source said, adding that the actors, who connected on the set of Wicked, are “still in the honeymoon phase of pure bliss."
