During his time in the Big Brother house, Jordan formed a relationship with housemate Henry Southan. They were questioned about the nature of their relationship throughout the series as fellow housemates watched their friendship blossom into a romance.
The pair, who finished first and third respectively, announced their split on Tuesday to shocked fans. In a post to his Instagram story, Henry wrote: "After a lot of thought, Jordan and I have decided to go our separate ways.
"Itās incredibly sad, and weāre both hurting, but we know itās the right step. Weāre so grateful for the love and support youāve shown us ā thank you. Please give us some space as we figure things out privately."

Jordan wrote in a separate post: "After many happy times, memories and precious experiences, Henry and I have parted ways. I wanted to thank everyone who has supported us. We will always remain close friends. Cheers X."
After the show finished in late 2023, Jordan posted a picture of him with Henry to his Instagram and wrote that he had "found a handsome, intelligent, and debonair fellow".
In November 2024 the pair announced they would be hosting a podcast together called Club Sandwich. They also recently appeared on Celebrity Big Brother: Late And Live, the companion show to the main ITV1 series.
