The Shout Out To My Ex singer said she “slid into his DMs” after a friend suggested they would be a good match, and they had dates on video call. She explained: “It was through a friend. I slid in the DMs. I’d been doing this for quite a while. I kept getting pied left, right and centre. “Jordan and I did a few Zoom dates in lockdown. We made a joke and said it was business and put suits and ties on and asked each other questions. I did the full shebang, a full suit. “Then we had a socially distanced date in Greenwich park, apart from each other just chatting.” Jordan recently took over as co-host of the popular Miss Me? podcast with Miquita Oliver, replacing Lily Allen. He had a successful career as one half of pop duo Rizzle Kicks from 2008 to 2016 before relaunching the group in 2024. As a musician, Jordan also worked on her debut album That’s Showbiz Baby! which was released last year. Jade said at the time: “I actually really didn’t want to date a musician. I’d done it previously; it never works out well. But it’s amazing now. We write together. “He’s on my album; I’m on his. Jordan’s on the backing vocals for Headache.” She is currently on a festival tour which will see her spend August travelling across America, Japan, Ireland and the UK. 4 comments4
