Noah’s grandmother appeared in a 2018 episode of “The Daily Show” when he visited his South African hometown.
“Every moment spent with her felt like a magical journey through time where she would recount all of the family’s greatest joys, losses, achievements, and milestones.”
Noah told fans that his grandmother “showed me the truest definition of unconditional love.”
“She passed away peacefully in her sleep and even blessed us with one final Mother’s Day which she enjoyed to the fullest. Hamba Kahle Gogo,” he concluded.
