Grace Keeling, better known as GK Barry, is a 22-year-old TikTok star who is known for having a wild and relatable lifestyle as a student. The social media personality rose to fame during the Covid-19 lockdown, when she decided to make a TikTok account posting short vlogs and stories showcasing her day-to-day life. 

With the intention of staying private and low-key, she named her account after her best friend’s surname to protect her identity - but Grace amassed a large following in no time. By August 2020, only 5 months after starting her account, she had already hit 100,000 followers, reaching over 1 million after just over a year of making the TikTok community laugh consistently. 

After already graduating with a degree in film studies from Nottingham Trent University, Grace is looking to further her education by completing a master’s in digital marketing. This decision has been shaped by her work as a social media influencer to not only assist in growing her personal accounts, but also allow for Grace to broaden her knowledge and understanding of the industry. 

Only recently Grace has ventured into the world of Podcasts, launching her very own named The Saving Grace Podcast. The podcast involves inviting different celebrity and influencer guests to chat about life, the latest trends, and tell embarrassing stories from their past. Just like her TikTok, the podcast has been very successful so far, topping multiple charts, and will no doubt continue to grow just like her career.
