Caroline, whose TikTok account @_caro_iguess_ has since been made private, started gaining new followers after people identified her as the Texas senator’s oldest daughter.

Offering insight into her family life, Caroline made a pros and cons list.

Highlighting the positives, she said: ‘Some of the good things are we get candy and gifts in the mail. We also get to travel sometimes.’

However, Caroline’s list of ‘bad things’ was more detailed and highlighted her high-security life, expectations of appearance, and the public perception of her beliefs.’

‘I literally have to have security following me everywhere,’ she said.

‘Like if I want to go on a walk through the neighborhood or to my friend’s house or something, I have to have like two security guards behind me the entire time.’

Caroline’s TikTok account went private after her video blew up, but not before social media users took screengrabs of her bio, in which she listed her pronouns as she/her and indicated that she identified as bisexual.
