Taylor Rousseau Grigg, a TikTok influencer with over a million followers has died, her husband Cameron has revealed in a GoFundMe set up in her honor. She was 25.
Taylor’s death occurred after a lengthy and costly battle against illness, her husband revealed, draining their financial reserves and leaving them needing some help.
Cameron Grigg did not list the specific cause of death for Taylor but said his wife had dealt with more pain and suffering within the past year than many others deal with in a lifetime.
“…In spite of that she still has been such a light and always brought joy to everyone around her. She is the most brave and strong woman I know, and her confidence in the Lord outweighed every other circumstance she’s faced,” Grigg wrote.
He added that currently, Taylor is being kept in a vegetative state to allow her organs to remain viable as she registered herself to be an organ donor.
“While her earthly body is still here waiting to give the gift of life, we know her spirit is in heaven dancing in the streets made of gold with all her beauty and grace,” Cameron continued. He gushed over his wife’s endless shoe/boot collection and rhinestones and turquioise jewelry.
Cameron Grigg expressed relief that Taylor suffers pain no more and that she is now in a place of happiness and joy.
Nevertheless, he noted that the health battle has left them financial wrung out and in need of assistance to get things back to order. He said since their wedding on August 19 last year, Taylor has been in and out of the hospital. Grigg shared the GoFundMe in honor of Taylor Rousseau and called for all who loved her to donate in her honor.
The fundraiser with a goal of $100,000 has raised circa $16,000 at the time of publishing this piece.
