The young TikTok star, who garnered over 1.4 million followers on the platform, died unexpectedly, her husband Cameron Grigg confirmed on Saturday (October 5).
“No one ever expects to have to deal with this kind of pain and heartache, especially at our age. This past year Taylor has dealt with more pain and suffering than most people do in a lifetime,” he wrote on social media.

“And 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, even in her darkest hours. I know she’s saved my life and so many others out there.”
Taylor‘s husband didn’t provide a cause of death in the announcement, but confirmed that her organs will be donated.
“Her earthly body is still here with us being ran by machines to keep her organs viable for donation. More than anything Taylor would want to know that she’s continuing to save people’s lives even after she’s gone from this world. And even though her earthly body may have failed her, her memory and life will be carried on forever,” he wrote.

Taylor addressed medical issues she had been facing back in August, saying she was “fighting for my life every day” and going through intense pain. She went on to say she was eventually diagnosed by a doctor, but did not make it clear what the diagnosis was to the public.
There is a GoFundMe account set up to support the family with expenses.
“With this being so sudden and unexpected we don’t have anything financially in order. Taylor has been in and out of the hospital since we got married which has affected our financial situation, therefore we don’t have any insurance. A friend set up a gofundme for anyone who would like to contribute. And even if you can’t contribute financially, prayers for our family are always needed. I’ll share the link and really appreciate if y’all would share it as well. I love y’all. Taylor loves y’all. Thank you for all the support and kind words during this time,” he wrote.
Our thoughts are with Taylor Rousseau Grigg‘s loved ones at this incredibly difficult time. RIP.
