A Family Stamp of Approval
Ariana Grande‘s rekindled relationship with Ricky Alvarez officially has her family’s blessing.
Ricky joined Ariana’s brother, Frankie Grande, in the crowd at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn on Sunday night.
The two watched Ariana perform during her “Eternal Sunshine Tour.” When she transitioned into her track “Warm,” Frankie and Ricky started dancing together.

As seen in fan video, Frankie got highly affectionate, reaching over and repeatedly patting Ricky’s head while they grooved to the set.
Back-to-Back Brooklyn Shows
Sunday marked Ricky’s second consecutive night supporting his girlfriend at the Brooklyn arena.
During Saturday’s show, attendees spotted him singing and dancing along to her hit “Imperfect for You.”
Taking the Romance Public
The couple first dated in 2015 and have recently rekindled their romance. Sources indicate they are intentionally taking things slow.
Despite the casual pace, they haven’t hidden their affection. The pair were recently seen displaying PDA during a romantic walk through Central Park, where Ricky was spotted grabbing Ariana’s backside.
Ariana has even updated her old lyrics regarding Ricky in her song “Thank U, Next” to give him a kinder review on tour. Frankie’s enthusiastic reaction at Barclays proves the brotherly approval is fully secured.
