'I want to be a dad more than anything

It’s fair to say that Jordan Brook and Sophie Kasaei are one of the strongest couples on TOWIE right now. While many of their co-stars are going through rocky times in their relationships, loved-up Jordan tells us that he and Sophie are the “best they’ve ever been”.

But he admits that it hasn’t been smooth sailing. Viewers have seen the couple – who have been dating since November 2022 – open up about their fertility struggles as they try for their first baby together.

Jordan previously broke down in tears as he revealed their heartbreak over a false-positive pregnancy test, saying it was “really hard to talk about”.

Now, he tells us that while they desperately want to become parents, they have “taken their feet off the gas” and are feeling more relaxed.

Here, as he chats to new about the latest series of the hit ITVBe show in Cyprus, Jordan, 29, also opens up about his strong bond with Sophie, 34, and whether we should be buying a hat any time soon…

Hi, Jordan! How did you find this series of TOWIE?

It’s been so good for me and Sophie – this was her first trip away with TOWIE. We are such a team and support network for each other. Having her with me made it for me, really. We are best friends and we have such a laugh.

We saw you going through so much last series with your fertility struggles. Was that difficult to open up about?

Last series was heavy for us. I was so surprised when I started talking about it, just how many other people were in our position.
