Then it hits me, the oldest son from Eight is Enough lol I go google to see if I'm right and yep, the guy's real name is Grant.

so you're in your 20's, great looking dude and you're on a big network TV show at a time when being on a network TV show was huge since cable TV was in its infancy, probably dating your pick of women, making big money - fast forward 30 years and you're in your 50's and the mascot on an Internet website selling BBQ equipment
