Grampsā€™ grandson and content creator Jannik Diefenbach (24) from Mainz, Germany, started taking fashion style portraits of his grandfather in 2016 after Jannik asked him if he would like to try on his clothes.

To his surprise, Jannikā€™s grandad loved the casual streetwear look and he took a picture of him and posted it online. Since then, Jannikā€™s ā€˜Grampsā€™ pictures have grown in popularity and the pair now have an eyewatering 1,000,000 followers online.

ā€œI asked him [Gramps] if he wanted to try on my clothes. He said yes, tried them on and looked super cool,ā€ said Jannik.

ā€œWe took some pictures, uploaded them and everyone loved it. Since Gramps enjoyed taking pictures and felt comfortable, we kept it up and never stopped.

ā€œIt’s great to be able to spend so much time with Gramps. He’s a cool guy and it’s always fun to take photos of him.

ā€œBefore Covid, we used to travel a lot for work and I really liked that. Visiting new places whilst having a great time with Gramps is super cool.

ā€œWe posted the pictures of Gramps because he looked cool. When the first big Instagram page reposted one of the pictures, we reached the one-thousand follower mark and we were surprised then.

ā€œIt’s great to see that Gramps can entertain and inspire so many people by simply enjoying himself.

ā€œAt first, he didn’t understand his Instagram fame because he wasn’t too deep into social media.

ā€œNow, he loves being recognised on the streets and is always happy when someone asks for a selfie with him. He definitely enjoys being famous.

ā€œWe’ve always been super close. When I was a child, Gramps used to pick me up once a week after school.

ā€œWe used to play table tennis, football and other stuff. We’ve definitely grown even closer now that we have our shared hobby.

ā€œWe get to spend lots of time together, can work and travel and enjoy the time.

ā€œIt’s never too late to start something new.ā€
