    "If only you all knew how amazing he was ... my heart hurts so much.

    It's beyond broken but I got to hold his hand and watch him find his peace.

    "This is the hardest thing imaginable but I'm so grateful that I got to spend this time with him and my family. Taking care of him and loving him."

    The 'Problem' hitmaker's brother Frankie is currently taking part in 'Big Brother US', but she admits her sibling won't be told about their grandfather's death until he has completed his stint on the gameshow.
