Grande Family Honors Nonna with Festive Traditions

Frankie Grande detailed the heartfelt ways he and his sister, Ariana Grande, will honor their beloved grandmother, Nonna, during their first holiday season without her. The siblings plan to hang ornaments and display a cherished photo of themselves on the Christmas tree as a tribute. They will also continue Nonna's culinary traditions by preparing her famous meatballs and zeppole, a recipe passed down through generations.

Grande acknowledged that making these dishes will be emotionally different without Nonna's physical presence but emphasized her enduring spirit. He humorously anticipated her spirited feedback on their cooking. Beyond family traditions, Frankie is looking forward to holiday events like seeing the Rockettes and attending his sister's hosting gig on Saturday Night Live, especially with Cher as a musical guest.

Adding to his busy schedule, Frankie is embarking on the Slay Ride tour and releasing a new single on December 5. He also teased that his upcoming memoir, Supergay!, will feature numerous stories about Nonna, celebrating her vibrant personality. Their grandmother, Marjorie Grande, passed away in June at the age of 99.
