### TikTok Star Taylor Rousseau Grigg Passes Away at 25
TikTok influencer Taylor Rousseau Grigg tragically succumbed to a mysterious illness on Saturday, just a month after celebrating her 25th birthday. This shock comes after a year fraught with immense pain and suffering, which her husband, Cameron Grigg, shared in an emotional Instagram post.
"This past year Taylor has dealt with more pain and suffering than most people do in a lifetime. Despite that, she remained such a light and always brought joy to everyone around her," wrote Cameron. Although her earthly body is sustained by machines to keep her organs viable for donation, her husband emphasized that she would want to continue saving lives even after her passing.
Cameron, a 24-year-old rodeo bull rider, expressed his belief that Taylor is no longer in pain and is now made whole in Jesus' name. "We can praise God that she will endure no more suffering and she is truly set free from these earthly chains! She's been made whole and perfect! I cling to the fact of knowing that we will be seeing her again and spend eternity together!" he added.
Due to the unexpected nature of Taylor's passing, Cameron has initiated a GoFundMe campaign to cover hospital and funeral expenses. The campaign has garnered $24,213 out of its $100,000 goal from 438 donations so far.
Taylor's illness surfaced shortly after her August 19, 2023 wedding to Cameron. She chose not to disclose her diagnosis publicly, aiming to avoid unsolicited advice and miracle cures from her 1.6 million social media followers. In an emotional TikTok video posted on August 8, Taylor tearfully expressed her struggles, stating, "I feel like I have to fight to live, to be here. It just sucks because I'm 24 years old. I should be in my prime!"
Her sister, Bailey Wagner, also took to Instagram to vow to carry on Taylor's legacy. "From holding you when you came home from the hospital for the first time to holding you when you left the hospital for the last time... My beautiful baby girl, I'm just not ready to let go," she shared.
Taylor's final TikTok post on September 26 was a touching tribute to taking her beloved Pit Bull, Baby, to the veterinarian. As plans are being made to hold a benefit in Taylor's honor, Cameron assured that more details would be forthcoming.
This devastating loss has deeply impacted her family, friends, and millions of followers who mourn the loss of a young life that brought so much joy to others.
