TikTok star Taylor Rousseau Grigg was buried on Friday, a week after her sudden death at the age of 25.
Her husband, Cameron Grigg, shared a photo of her closed casket from the funeral service to his Instagram Stories, telling her “It was beautiful Princess,” as the 3 Doors Down song Here Without You played below the photo.
A second photo showed the coffin draped with a white cloth beneath a bouquet of white roses and baby’s breath.
The arrangement was completed with a silver belt buckle and a white western hat with baby’s breath and a black and white feather.
Another photo featured a black and white portrait of the influencer surrounded by three pairs of Western-style boots that acted as vases and were filled with white roses and baby’s breath. An orange Western-style hat was hung on the portrait.
TikTok star Taylor Rousseau Grigg was laid to rest on Friday in a funeral that took place a week after her death from complications of Addison’s disease and asthma. She was 25
Taylor died earlier this month due to complications related to Addison’s disease and asthma.
Addison’s disease is a rare condition that occurs when the adrenal glands no longer produce enough of the hormones cortisol and aldosterone, according to the Mayo Clinic.
Adrenal insufficiency can be life-threatening, and symptoms – including extreme fatigue, weight loss and low blood pressure – can develop slowly or quickly.
There is no cure for Addison’s disease, but patients typically take replacement hormones to treat the chronic condition.
The social media star documented part of her illness for her fans. Many noticed that she didn’t seem like herself, but Taylor didn’t tell them what her specific condition was.
Taylor’s tragic passing comes about six weeks after she and her husband celebrated their first wedding anniversary.
Confirming the death of his young bride, Cameron wrote a sad farewell on social media for her 1.3 million followers.
“No one ever expects to have to deal with this kind of pain and heartache, especially at our age,” the rodeo bull rider wrote via Instagram.

“Over the past year, Taylor has faced more pain and suffering than most people experience in a lifetime. And despite that, she has still been so light and always brought joy to everyone around her.”
“Her earthly body is still here and we are being controlled by machines to keep her organs viable for donation. More than anything, Taylor would want to know that she continues to save lives even after she is gone from this world.”
The avid hunter added, “She is no longer in pain, but her body is healed in Jesus’ name. We can praise God that she will endure no more suffering and that she is truly freed from these earthly chains! She is whole and perfectly made! I’m clinging to the fact that I know we’ll see her again! And we’ll get to spend all of eternity together!’
Symptoms of Addison’s disease include dark areas of the skin, severe fatigue, dehydration, nausea, vomiting or abdominal pain, dizziness, muscle or joint pain, and salt cravings.

“I feel like I have to fight to live, to be here,” Rousseau shouted on TikTok on August 8.
“And it just sucks because I’m 24 years old. I should be in my prime! I should be able to carry my suitcase up the stairs. I should be able to walk or run to the mailbox. And those are exactly the things I can’t do right now.’
And on March 16, the Geaux Sauvage founder revealed she had been hospitalized and given a V60 ventilator “after a life of struggle.” [and] near-death experiences.’
Condolences from fans have poured in on the post at the top of Taylor’s account, which celebrated their wedding in August 2023.
“That’s so sad but I will be praying for you and your family,” one mourner wrote, adding: “And friends. She will always watch over you. And she will always be with you in your hearts and we are so sorry for your loss. She will be missed. And it will always be loved.”
Cameron called his wife “the bravest and strongest woman I know” for the way she dealt with the painful symptoms of Addison’s disease

“I was always one of her biggest fans, she seemed so sweet and kind and like she wanted to live this life the best she could,” another fan wrote.
“You were all so adorable, and she will be missed, prayers for you and your husband’s families during this difficult time, heaven has gained another beautiful angel, rest in peace Taylor.”
According to a statement from Cameron, the young couple had no health insurance, leaving them in debt for Taylor’s medical treatment and funeral.
A GoFundMe account was set up to help offset some of the costs.
