Taking to Instagram, he shared an image of himself post-surgery from a hospital bed. Frankie was in a neck brace.
He wrote, “Wink if you’re freshly repaired 😉👅. Today I had a planned cervical spine surgery to relieve pressure on nerves in my neck that have been causing pain and neurological symptoms for a while. The procedure went exactly as expected, no surprises, no drama (for once 😅), just very precise work by an incredible medical team.”
Frankie also went into some more details on what the surgery entailed. Ariana Grande’s sibling is going to need a lot of rest and recovery ahead.

He explained, “They removed bone and tissue that were compressing the nerves, giving my spinal cord, disks, and radiating nerves the space it needs to heal and function properly. Now comes 4 weeks of healing, rest, physical therapy, and being nicer to my body than I usually am. MERRY CHRISTMAS! 😜”
Still, he is thankful for it to be done.
He concluded, “I’m sore, I’m tired, but I’m safe, I’m relieved, and I’m already feeling hopeful. This was a necessary step so I can get back on my feet, back on stage, and back to living fully without pain running the show. Thank you for the love, prayers, messages, and support. Truly felt and deeply appreciated. This is healing in progress. 🦋✨.”
