Early life, source of career
Grace Boor was born on 9 September 2002 in Indianapolis, Indiana USA – she’s thankful for her birthplace because it allowed her to frequently visit Disney’s Magic Kingdom in Bay Lake, Florida State, US. Grace has spent much of her life in Orlando, Florida.
Grace has a younger sister, Gabriella, whom she considers a twin because they look alike. According to her interview with The Teen Magazine, she’s participated in beauty pageants since 11th grade, inspired by her mother, a former model.
Early education
Grace matriculated from high school in Orlando in 2020, but the COVID-19 pandemic caused her school to cancel the prom.
Career
Grace began her online career on 14 July 2017, when she uploaded a picture in honor of her mother’s birthday. She primarily posted about her family until September 2018, when her amateur modeling shots began to dominate her feed. In March 2019, Grace competed in the Miss Florida Teen USA pageant, which she called ‘the job of her dreams.’ She won the Miss SW Orlando Teen USA pageant in August, and was a finalist in the 2020 Miss Florida Teen USA competition. That boosted her following, and she began posting behind-the-scenes videos and photos from her photo shoots for Carlos Velez Studios, which was involved with the beauty pageant.
Unexpected career growth
In early 2020, Grace began to model swimwear and dresses on Instagram, using her voluptuous physique to promote brands such as Shore Brand, DOLL Swimwear, Beach Bunny Swimwear, and La Femme Fashion. Grace told The Teen Magazine that she’d never considered becoming a model because she wasn’t tall enough. Moreover, she didn’t seek success; several companies sent her direct messages (DMs), and inquired about collaboration.

Full-time modeling
On 5 August 2020, her Instagram account reached 100,000 followers. Grace announced on 20 October that she’d earned enough to become a full-time model and start a business venture, as she’d been working in an ice cream shop, Jeremiah’s Italian Ice, until that day. Consequently, she posed for photographers such as Hunter Moreno, Devin Dal Santo, Bear Degidio and Ryan Pearl.
Moreover, Grace began traveling to various US sites, posting photos and videos from vacation spots abroad, and promoting properties for real estate companies and bookings for hotel chains. It became evident that Grace took marketing courses during that period, and hired a manager, as she began posting various eye-catching and seductive captions and posing even more alluringly.
TikTok
Grace has been active on her TikTok account, @graceboor_, since March 2020. She primarily answers interesting questions, films get-ready-with-me (GRWM) videos, and instructs her female followers on choosing outfits, styling their hair, and doing their makeup. She also posts behind-the-scenes videos for some of her Instagram posts and discusses topics related to health and wellness.
YouTube
Grace created her YouTube channel, @GraceBoor, in August 2020, but has only posted several videos in which she tried bikinis that she received from well-known labels. However, there were indications that she wanted to grow her following and upload more. For instance, Grace posted a questions & answers (Q&A) video to introduce herself in 2021. Additionally, she tried snacks that a sponsor, Bussin Snacks, sent her in exchange for an honest review.
Goals
Businesses such as Makoto Watersports and JAXXON, targeting male customers and primarily using male models, noticed Grace’s work for female-oriented products, and hired her for their advertising campaigns. Thus, she will likely expand her reach to promote more such products and services.
As a result of her work, Grace’s Instagram reached a million followers in January 2022, and five months later, she asked her fans to vote for her to become Maxim magazine’s next Cover Girl. Maxim Cover Girls usually receive a monetary reward, free photoshoots, and a spotlight in subsequent digital and physical issues.

Additionally, Grace created her @yourfavmelons account on the OnlyFans platform, showing her desire to capitalize on her model physique by posting exclusive content, mainly nude modeling photos and videos, for her subscribers. She also told The Teen Magazine that she wanted to become an actress. However, she would only accept a fun role, similar to that in the “Baywatch” series, which aired from 1989 to 2001.
Passions
Using social media, Grace has revealed bits of information about herself. For instance, she enjoys watching the “90210” television series broadcast from 2008 to 2013, and is a fan of the New York Rangers and New Jersey Devils teams in the National Hockey League (NHL).
Additionally, she announced that her goal as an influencer is to end bullying and hate, and raise awareness about mental health struggles. Moreover, Grace revealed that she’s a dog lover and has a white Pomeranian named Hunni. Grace also stated that she’s happy in the US, but that she would love to move to Greece someday.
Boyfriend John Grillo
Grace revealed that she had a boyfriend with an Instagram post containing photos of her and John in a close embrace, uploaded on 25 February 2021. John Grillo is a social media personality with over 215,000 followers on his Instagram account, @johngrilloo, and an entrepreneur who founded the Grillo Watches and Whavy swimwear brand. Both promoted the two brands, and based on the photos on his profile, traveled to luxurious destinations such as the Cayman Islands and Turks and Caicos Islands.
However, it’s uncertain whether Grace and John are still together. John stopped posting on Instagram in February 2022, the social media accounts for his brands. Grace’s TikTok video from October 2022, in which they are dressed as Aladdin and Jasmine, is the latest proof of them being a couple.

Grace has blue eyes and dark brown hair, sometimes partially dyed blonde. She is 5ft 5ins (1.65m) tall, weighs about 123lbs (56kgs), and has a curvy physique.
