‘Life is crazy. A lot can happen in four years,’ says Jordyn, sitting across from me in London’s Sanderson Hotel, wearing a hoodie that aptly reads ‘Bad energy stay far away’.

Over the past few months, Jordyn’s name has featured heavily in celebrity gossip headlines and been dragged through the mud on Instagram. ‘There’s been so much that’s happened in my life, I feel like I’m so old,’ she tells me semi-wearily, as though the magnitude of living such a public-facing life is still sinking in. She is referring, in part, to the loss of her father in 2017 and to the moment she found herself embroiled in a tabloid frenzy of cheating allegations surrounding the Kardashian-Jenner posse.
