Ariana Grande’s Heartfelt Tribute: Remembering Nonna, the Woman Behind the Wisdom
Hey guys, I just want to take a moment to share something really personal and emotional that’s happening in the world of Ariana Grande — and for so many of us who’ve followed her journey, this feels incredibly close to home. Ariana’s beloved grandmother, Marjorie Grande — lovingly known to all of us as “Nonna” — has sadly passed away at the age of 99.
This isn’t just a headline or celebrity news, this is the loss of a woman who felt like family to millions of Ariana’s fans. Nonna wasn’t just the matriarch of the Grande family — she was a cherished part of Ariana’s life and career. We saw their beautiful bond over the years in interviews, at award shows, and even in Ariana’s music.
Nonna passed peacefully in her home, surrounded by family in her final days. Ariana shared the news with her fans on Instagram, reposting a heartfelt message originally written by her mom, Joan Grande. It read, “We are devastated to share that the beloved matriarch of our family has passed away… we thank you for your love, support, and for respecting our privacy as we grieve and celebrate her beautiful, extraordinary life.”

And that’s exactly what this is — a celebration of a truly extraordinary life. Nonna was known not only for her charm and grace but for her warmth and her wisdom, which made her a fan favorite. She even left a lasting mark on music history by becoming the oldest person to ever be featured on the Billboard Hot 100. Yes, at 98, she made her musical debut on Ariana’s track “Ordinary Things” from the Eternal Sunshine album — and her appearance wasn’t just a gimmick. It was pure heart.
She ends the song with words that still echo in so many of our minds: “Never go to bed without kissin’ goodnight… and if you don’t feel comfortable doing it, you’re in the wrong place — get out.” It’s this kind of wisdom, raw and real, that reminds us why Nonna was so loved. It wasn’t about fame or the spotlight — it was about love, honesty, and connection.
Ariana once said that her album begins with a question and ends with an answer — and that answer came from Nonna. It’s a reminder that the people who raise us, shape us, and love us unconditionally are the ones whose voices matter the most.
Nonna’s legacy will live on not just through Ariana, but through all of us who’ve heard her words, seen her smile, and felt the love she radiated. Rest in peace, Nonna. You made history in more ways than one. 💔
