Ariana Grande has opened up about her time living in London while filming Wicked and Wicked: For Good

Wicked star Ariana Grande has opened up about her time living in the capital during the production of the smash hit movie and how she was introduced to one of the UK’s most beloved dishes.

In an interview with BBC Radio 1, Grande gushed about her time in the UK capital as she revealed she resided in the picturesque Hampstead Heath during filming for Wicked.

She explained: “I was in Hampstead when I was here and I loved my walks in the Heath. I loved meandering and visiting the different shops and places and pubs.

The star added: “I didn't know what a Sunday roast was but now I know that’s a thing. I didn't know what that was and now I do and I'm changed for the better.”

Going back to life on the Heath, Grande said: "It's so delightful and fun and there are so many dogs and Vizslas [dog breed] in the heath. There are so many Vizslas in Hampstead Heath I loved seeing them.”

Hampstead Heath has been the home to many big-name stars over the years from Harry Styles to Stephen Fry.

Taylor Swift has even mentioned the green space in her music in the Lover track London Boy.

Liam Gallagher mentioned living in Hampstead by the heath in a hilarious moment on the Jonathan Ross show in 2019 when he remembered how he changed his dog’s name from Sparkle to Ruby after she got lost in the popular park.
