The singer’s daughter, Gloria “Millie” Chapman, 23, met Katherine Dudley when they were just 3 years old. They've been as close as sisters ever since.

Katherine suffers from a degenerative kidney disease. She's known for years that she would one day need a kidney transplant, and when the moment came, Millie didn't blink.

"She has always been a part of my life," Millie told Inside Edition. "I can’t remember when she hasn’t. I didn’t even think about it, it was, "Of course I will give you mine."

As luck would have it, Millie was a match. Her kidneys were also incredibly healthy.

Grant was understandably nervous on the day of the surgery, saying, "I think I was probably more afraid than I let on."

Fortunately, the January 23 transplant went off without a hitch.
