TikTok star dies at 25

TikTok star Taylor Rousseau Grigg has died. She was 25 years old.

Taylor's husband Cameron Grigg shared the tragic news on Instagram on Saturday.

Cameron called Taylor's death “so sudden and unexpected” and shared a link to a GoFundMe page to help the family with finances.

“No one ever expects to have to deal with this kind of pain and heartbreak, especially at our age,” Cameron began his post. “Over the past year, Taylor has endured more pain and suffering than most people endure in a lifetime. And yet she was still such a light and always brought joy to everyone around her.”

“She is the bravest and strongest woman I know, and her trust in the Lord outweighed all other circumstances she faced, even in her darkest hours,” Cameron added. “I know she saved my life and so many others’ lives out there.”

Cameron then revealed that Taylor's “earthly body is still here and we are controlled by machines to keep her organs usable for donation.”

“More than anything, Taylor wants to know that she continues to save lives even after she is gone from this world,” he wrote. “And even though her earthly body has failed her, her memory and her life will carry on forever. She doesn't owe anyone anything. But she wants everyone to know that she is more than okay.”

“She is no longer in pain, but her body has been healed in the name of Jesus,” Cameron continued. “We can praise God that she will endure no more suffering and is truly freed from these earthly bonds!” SHE WAS MADE COMPLETE AND PERFECT!”

The late TikTok star's husband said “everything is not going well financially” and there is no insurance. He then shared information about GoFundMe, which has raised over $25,000.

“And even if you can’t contribute financially, prayers are always needed for our family,” Cameron said. “I love you all. Taylor loves you all. Thank you for all the support and kind words during this time.”

The GoFundMe page reads: “It is with our deepest condolences that we note the passing of Taylor, who has now spread her wings. Her spirit will live on in the hearts of all who knew her. At this time, we would appreciate everyone’s respect and privacy for our family.”

The site also said that a fundraiser in Taylor's honor was being planned.

Taylor had over 1.4 million followers on TikTok.

Her last video was released on September 26th. In it, Taylor can be seen spending time with her dog.

The late social media star began dating her husband in 2021. They initially connected on Instagram and got engaged in June 2022 before tying the knot over a year later on August 19, 2023.
