Ariana Grande Had the Perfect Response When Her Brother Came Out
Ariana Grande is 10 years younger than her half brother Frankie, but the two possess an extremely close-knit relationship. They're enjoy "yin and yang," the elder Grande told Attitude Magazine. "She's my optimal friend and probably the person who makes me proudest on this planet," he added.
