Career

Grace began her reality television career on the MTV series '' The Valleys'' in 2012, at the age of nineteen. In 2013, she began selling an online fashion range. In April 2014, Grace released her first single, "You Beautiful", featuring D-Jukes, though it failed to chart. The single was a plotline in the third series of ''The Valleys'', where her fellow housemates were underwhelmed with the finished track. In 2015, she released her autobiography, titled ''Valleywood''. In her autobiography, Grace stated that the downfall of her song was due to jealous, writing: "It could have been a classic hit but they still wouldn't have admitted they liked it because none of the other housemates had anything substantial going on in their lives." On 7 June 2016, Grace entered the '' Big Brother'' house, to participate in the seventeenth series. She was not nominated for eviction, but was eliminated as part of an "Annihilation Week" twist on 12 July 2016, when contestant Jason Burrill was required to evict a fellow housemate in order to receive a cash prize. In 2018, Grace starred in ''Million Dollar Baby'', an MTV series that documented herself, business partners and friends trying to raise £1 million for her daughter, Wynter.
