The Big Brother Reindeer Games caused Frankie Grande to have an emotional breakdown which he shared with viewers.
During the final episode of Big Brother Reindeer Games, there were only five BB legends left to compete for the final four spots in the final competition. Frankie would be competing along with Nicole Franzel, Xavier Prather, Britney Haynes, and Taylor Hale for the four spots in the Reindeer Games finals. During the episode, Frankie felt certain he needed to win his way into the finals, as he would be an unlikely player for someone else to bring.
On his Instagram, Frankie broke down the moments after he won his way into the Reindeer Games finale after beating Xavier and Britney in a competition. Frankie, who has been clean and sober for over six years, shared that during the prior competition, he’d opened up about his sobriety in front of the rest of the cast and the crew. Before the second competition, a makeup artist approached him and shared their 40-year sobriety journey. “Tiffany’s makeup artist…said because I shared my story…he wanted to come and show me he was 40 years sober.”

Frankie shared that he’d come to Big Brother Reindeer Games hoping to prove he could compete in the game while sober. “I wanted to prove to myself that I could do this as a sober man, that I didn’t need to rely on the drugs and alcohol that I was on during BB 16,” Frankie explained. “When I won that competition and I knew that I had made it to the finale…I lost it, I just lost it. I was so proud of myself.”
