The Rise of Kesley Jade LeRoy
Kesley Jade LeRoy (now Mikesell) is a prominent American content creator and entrepreneur who rose to fame as the eldest child of the popular YouTube family "The LeRoys." Born on December 23, 2003, she first appeared online in January 2016 when her parents, Cory and Shanna LeRoy, launched their family vlog channel.[1] Audiences were quickly drawn to her energetic personality and sarcastic humor, which helped the family channel grow to over 1.6 million subscribers.[2]
[1][2]Building on her initial success, Kesley launched her own self-titled channel, Kesley Jade, in July 2017. Her personal content focuses on lifestyle vlogs, fashion, challenges, and teenage life, allowing her to cultivate a distinct identity separate from her family's brand. By late 2025, her personal channel had surpassed 1 million subscribers, amassing over 450 million total views.[2][3] She has also expanded her digital footprint with a shared channel, Kesley & Brock, featuring her partner Brock Mikesell, which has gained significant traction with over 1.1 million subscribers.[4]
[2][3][4]Missionary Service
In early 2024, Kesley paused her full-time content creation career to serve a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She was assigned to the Montana Billings Mission, where she served for 18 months.[5] During this period, she occasionally shared updates about her faith and experiences, maintaining a connection with her audience while focusing on her service. She officially returned home in June 2025, documenting her emotional reunion with her family in a viral vlog that garnered hundreds of thousands of views within days.[5][6]
[5][6]Entrepreneurship and Fashion
Beyond content creation, Kesley has established herself as a young entrepreneur. In 2017, at just 13 years old, she co-founded Kesley Jade Collections, an online clothing boutique she runs alongside her mother, Shanna.[2] The brand reflects her personal style, offering a curated selection of trendy dresses, tops, and accessories. As of late 2025, the store remains active, frequently releasing new seasonal collections that Kesley promotes directly to her social media following.[7]
[7][2]Personal Life
Kesley’s personal life has been a central theme of her content, particularly her relationship with fellow influencer Brock Mikesell. The couple began dating in 2019 while in high school and navigated a long-term relationship that included periods of separation during their respective church missions.[8] Following her return in mid-2025, their relationship moved quickly; they announced their engagement in September 2025 and were married on October 25, 2025, in a ceremony at the Taylorsville Utah Temple.[8][9]
