Ethan
Slater
doesn’t
need
to
wait
for
Frankie
Grande‘s love.
In
fact,
the
Broadway
actor
has
already
received
a
seal
of
approval
from Ariana
Grande‘s
big
brother,
who
shared
that
he’s
a “big
fan”
of her Wicked costar
and their
relationship.
“I
love
him,”
Frankie
told
TooFab
in
an
interview
published
June
5. “He’s
a
very
sweet
guy.”
The
41-year-old
added
that
he’s
been
a “big
fan”
of
Ethan
ever
since
seeing
him
in
The
SpongeBob
Musical,
which
ran
from
2017
to
2018.
“And
I
got
to
interview
him
when
I
was
doing
the
SpongeBob
SquarePants
podcast,”
continued
Frankie,
who
himself
has
starred
in
Broadway
productions
of
Mamma
Mia!
and
Rock
of
Ages. “And
the
Broadway
community
is
a
tight-knit
family.”
Besides,
as
Frankie
put
it,
the
real
test
of
Ethan’s
character
came
down
to
how
his
sister
feels
about
him.
“Honestly,
I’ve
always
just
said
this,
all
I
want
is
for
my
sister
to
be
happy,” he
explained. “When
she’s
happy,
I’m
happy.
So,
I’m
very
happy.”
