Frankie Grande, former Big Brother contestant and brother of Ariana Grande, recently revealed that his boyfriend is married… to his other boyfriend.
Grande made the throuple disclosure at the only appropriate venue: Bette Midler’s Hulaween party in New York City.
“These are my boyfriends,” he told US Weekly at the event, introducing married couple Daniel Sonasohn, attorney at law, and Mike Pophis, a doctor, before quipping: “[It’s been] almost three months, but in the gay world it’s like five years.”
Now, in an interview with New Now Next, Frankie has elaborated on the relationship, which is still going strong after more than 90 days.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“It’s the most responsible thing I’ve done in a while,” Grande says. “A lot of people come up to me and say, ‘Oh my God, you’re in a throuple? I’m in a throuple.’ It’s been cool to see people do that as well. Love is love is love is love.”
And while the trio keeps busy schedules, Grande says they try very hard to make time for one another and another.
“Their schedules are so different,” he explains. “Mike is in his first year residency. He came off two weeks of just the night shift. Sometimes I’ll bring Daniel to events and sometimes Mike. We have crazy schedules, but mostly we do things as a threesome.”
He continues: “In each way, we are a complementary group. The triangle is the strongest shape, and each one of us brings the right amount to the relationship to make it sturdy.”
As for moving in together, Grande says it’s still a little too early for any of that.
“We’re still dating. It’s early stages,” he says. “I just moved into an apartment in Chelsea and I love it, and it’s good to have my own space and they have their own space.”
He adds, “I’ve been single for almost nine years now. I have not been in a relationship that’s lasted more than six weeks since then. So, approaching three months is looong.”

Do you, boo. But these quotes do make him sound like the most shallow, narcissistic, stereotypical of queens. Also, in the photos neither dude seems interested in him or even comfortable with him. It appears they’re all using each other for a bit of social media shine and maybe sex. But I’m kinda doubting Frankie is either of these dudes’ type.

What are you talking about? You don’t find relationships like that anymore. 3 months is like a lifetime in straight years.
Donston
Actually, from what I can tell the 32 and under crowd of gays seem more likely to boo up and stay boo-ed up for a while. They’re just not typically the kinds of people who constantly flaunt themselves and their new “relationships” on social media.

Real truth. And I would like to inform you about one great place to find love and pleasure. Just check my profile name. There are a lot of real gay sugar “daddies” and frivolous gay singles

He’s so insufferable. I can’t imagine spending more than a few seconds in his presence — just enough to see if his face looks as scary in-person as it does in photos. And what do three bottoms do in bed?
Kangol
For someone who “can’t imagine spending more than a few seconds in his presence” you seem pretty interested in what he and his two boos do in bed. Just admit it, you’re fascinated as much as you’re repelled. And insufferable as he may be, he has 2 other people willing to put up with it for now, so you nor anyone else has to.

And the next time he feels the need for attention he will come up with some other announcement. Probably that they are breaking up. He is an attention whore. And he found two other guys willing to risk their relationship and get their pictures in a publication. I feel sorry for anyone thinking they might have a normal relationship with him and that includes friendship. He is a ME ME ME kind of person.

I have no problem with a creepy obnoxious hungry bottom enters into a 3-way arrangement. I’m all for individual choices being respected. But he is too creepy to even look at.

Oh my Gawd! I’m like all over dripping, OMG, this is what’s been missing in my life! Oh my Gawd! Got more X? Need some Tina? My trout lips look FABOO! F’ing f’ed up queens.

He’s famewhore trash with a druggie sister. Disgusting family.

A doctor and a lawyer… with Frankie Grande?
I mean… is it love, or just an opportunity for them to pass out business cards at social gatherings?
PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS
Not too sure this is exactly a great way to begin to establish either a law or medical practice…….

I believe in live and let live. I also do not judge. To each their own. I have seen ‘throuples’ from those I know, and none of them were successful. The brake-ups went 2 ways, all 3 went their own ways or the 3rd and one of the original couple left and became a new couple.
So I disagree with Grande that 3 is more stable than 2, and 12 weeks is way to early to claim success.
Donston
Mere “open relationships”, a group of friends where some of the parties occasionally hook up, and couples that indulge threesomes here and there all seem to represent more “stable” stuff. It’s just very rare for genuine and sustained passion, romantic/emotional connection and relationship contentment to develop between three parties. Furthermore, this three month old “throuple” seems to exist for the sake of social media attention than anything else.

I love how Millennials think they invented group sex.

I love how older bitter men think they think that.

It’s not nice to cast stones, but, I’m sorry, Frankie just gives off a vibe like he smells funky and is probably always sticky.
Black Pegasus
Oh gawd… they trigger disgust in my body I never knew existed. Just looking at them makes me sick …. ugh..

He’s definitely creepy looking. The eye makeup and spray tan don’t help. The funniest comment was the guy who was wondering what three bottoms do in bed. Hahahha. Maybe they could include Pete Davidson. Four bottoms.

Gross just Gross.

Sorry Queerty… stop trying to make Frankie happen. It ain’t gonna happen.
Honestly, this poor man is not neither interesting or talented.
He epitomizes a desperate fame hungry queen.
As far as I know, this feeling is universal.

I said early on, this guy is out to break up this newlywed couple. FG is a slimy weasel. These two guys have great professional careers ahead of them as a doctor and a lawyer, and if this continues much longer, their futures will not be at best sub-standard. Someone is about to get his heart broken, and it will not be FG. Mike, wake up dude and kick FG to the curb.
