Where is Frankie Jonas now?
Aside from his social media fame, Frankie is also pursuing a career in fashion, film, and television. “[People tell me] that I need to have more fun [and] I need to be less intense all the time, which you would not get from TikTok,” he told the website.
Over the years, his brothers have also opened up about his success both in and out o the public eye.
“He’s working hard, we’re really proud of him,” the band dished during a fan question and answer session with Ask Anything from June 2019. “He’s just killing it out there. Frankie, we love you and we’re proud of you!”
Do the boys still refer to him as the “Bonus Jonas?” Well, as per Joe Jonas, they don’t because he actually hated that nickname.
“We don’t refer to him as ‘Bonus Jonas’ anymore, he doesn’t like that name. He never did,” the singer said during the Ask Anything chat. “We get it. That’s just a sad name to be called, so he goes by Frankie Jonas. That’s actually his name.”
