TikTok star Taylor Rousseau Grigg was laid to rest Friday in a funeral that took place one week after her passing from complications of Addison’s disease and asthma. She was 25
Taylor died earlier this month as a result of complications related to Addison’s disease and asthma.
Addison’s disease is a rare disorder that occurs when the adrenal glands no longer produce enough of the hormones cortisol and aldosterone, as per the Mayo Clinic.
Adrenal insufficiency can be life-threatening and symptoms — which include extreme fatigue, weight loss and low blood pressure — may develop slowly or rapidly.
There is no cure for Addison’s disease but sufferers typically take replacement hormones to treat the chronic condition.
The social media star chronicled some of her illness for her fans, many had noticed she didn’t seem herself, but Taylor did not 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.
In confirming the death of his young bride, Cameron wrote a mournful 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.

In confirming the death of his young bride, Cameron penned a mournful 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,’ he wrote via Instagram (pictured March 16)
‘This past year, Taylor has dealt with more pain and suffering than most people do in a lifetime. And in spite of that, she still has been such a light and always brought joy to everyone around her.’
‘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.’
The avid hunter added: ‘She’s no longer in pain, but her body has been 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 we will be able to spend all of eternity together!’
Symptoms of Addison’s disease include darkened areas of skin, severe fatigue, dehydration, nausea, vomiting or belly pain, lightheadedness, muscle or joint pain and salt cravings.

‘I feel like I have to fight to live, to be here,’ Rousseau cried 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 to the mailbox or run. And those are just things that I can’t really do right now.’
And on March 16, the Geaux Sauvage founder revealed she’d been hospitalized and put on a V60 ventilator ‘after a lifetime of battles [and] near death experiences.’
Condolences from fans have poured in on the posting pinned to the top of Taylor’s account, which celebrated their August 2023 wedding.
‘That is so so sad, but I will pray for you and your family,’ wrote one mourner, adding, ‘And friends. She will always watch over y’all. And she will always be with y’all in hearts and so so sorry for your loss. She will be missed. And will always be loved.’
Cameron called his wife ‘the most brave and strong woman I know’ for the way she dealt with the painful symptoms of Addison’s disease
