Their mother’s name is Shannon Peterson Marshall.

His sister and parents make regular appearances on his social media pages. After Ellie, Paige is his most frequent collaborator. Since the COVID19 outbreak, the family is quarantining together, and his father has made a number of videos with him. Grant loves the outdoors and regularly goes to fishing expeditions. He is also a baseball and football player.

Grant Marshall on TikTok

Grant began posting videos on his @grantmarshall TikTok page in April 2019, and in the ensuing months, quickly established himself as a prominent user on the platform. Good-looking and extremely confident in front of the camera, he took a short time to accrue a large following.

On April 29, 2019, he shared a clip filmed during his and Ellie’s time in Chicago, Illinois. His sister made her first appearance on his page in a video posted on the following day. On 5 May 2019, he uploaded a video made with both his sister and girlfriend. He congratulated Ellie for reaching the 100K followers milestone in a video shared on 7 May. His grandparents were featured in a video posted on 11 May. In the accompanying caption, he wrote, “I love my grandparents, they are a joy to be around.”

Since the creation of the page, he has used several popular tracks for his content, including ‘Da Real Hoodbabies’ by Lil Gotit; ‘Hell 2 Da Naw’ by Bullwinkle Boyz; ‘Fergalicious’ by Fergie; ‘Groceries’ by Chance the Rapper (ft. TisaKorean and Murda Beatz); ‘The Box’ by Roddy Ricch; ‘King’s Dead’ by Jay Rock, Kendrick Lamar, Future, and James Blake; and ‘Hold My Hand’ by Jess Glynn.

Although Grant makes a lot of collaborative content, he rarely makes any duet, and even when he does, they are made with either his or Ellie’s old posts.

In his first Instagram video, posted on 1 April 2016, he can be seen pretending to fish from a fountain. His next few posts, however, revolves around actual fishing. Over the years, he has shared selfies; posts about his daily activities and travel; and photos taken with friends, family, Ellie, and the family dog.

Grant Marshall on YouTube

Grant created his self-titled YouTube channel on August 13, 2014, and posted his first video, titled ‘Fishing Crystal Clear River for Smallmouth Bass!’, on July 9, 2018, long before he became famous on TikTok. Since then, he has acquired over 20 thousand subscribers and more than four hundred thousand total views.

On YouTube, he posts videos on various aspects of his life, from fishing to sports to travel to interactions with people close to him. Although Grant posts videos here quite regularly, they just don’t attract as much traffic as his content does on TikTok. His most-watched video on YouTube is ‘Who Knows Me Better?? Sister or GF?’.
