Jordan Stephens reveals he became sober after ‘destroying relationships’ after giving rare insight into his romance with Jade Thirlwall

As a devoted fan, it’s heartening to see Jordan Stephens bravely sharing his journey of self-discovery and personal growth. His candid confessions about overcoming substance abuse and learning to foster healthy relationships are truly inspiring.

As a lifestyle enthusiast, I can share that I made the decision to embrace sobriety when I realized I had unintentionally damaged important relationships in my life. It took someone setting a clear boundary for me to truly understand the impact of my actions and make this positive change.

In an open conversation on On The Mend With Matt Willis, the 32-year-old band member from Rizzle Kicks shared insights about his past struggles with substance abuse involving drugs and alcohol.

As a lifestyle enthusiast, I found myself connecting with Jade Thirlwall back in 2020 amidst the initial wave of the pandemic-induced lockdown. Our paths crossed unexpectedly through private messages on Instagram.

In my personal journey, I’ve observed how substances have been a detriment to my relationships. Each time I succumb to their temptation, I end up causing harm not only to myself but also to the bonds I hold dear. This destructive pattern isn’t serving me well, so I’ve decided to take a different path – one of sobriety. And that’s exactly what I’ve done.

‘This was the final point. This heartbreak I experienced where someone held a boundary rightfully and forced me into reconsidering my b******t.

Intriguingly enough, finding the right approach in a relationship seemed to elude me, so much so that I decided to enroll in a relationship course – yes, you read that correctly! As I pen down the final pages of this book, I can’t help but reflect on this unusual yet enlightening decision. You see, I was acutely aware that something wasn’t quite right, and I was determined to turn things around. I realized that I was stumbling, so I sought guidance to become a partner worth cherishing.

Jordan also told how he had been overdosing on the drug Modafinil which he took for his ADHD.

After posting his performance online, it wasn’t until he consulted with a psychiatrist that he understood his dosage was significantly excessive.

Jordan stated: “He asked, ‘How potent are these pills?’ To which I replied, ‘Each one is 200mg.’ There was a pause, and then he questioned, ‘Do you take 400mg a day?’ I responded, ‘Occasionally.’

‘And he went, okay, we’re going to get you on this thing. And then he writes the prescription. And I remember so vividly he gave me the prescription and I looked at and it said 16mg, and I was like 16mg? 

‘And then I remember reading the pamphlet and it said like, here’s how you know you’ve had an overdose. And it was like dry tongue, profuse sweating. 

It seemed as though everything I assumed indicated Modafinil’s effects were taking hold, was indeed happening. In other words, based on these indicators, I had essentially been taking too much Modafinil daily for approximately 18 months.

Jordan mentioned he additionally consumed Modafinil, a drug utilized for addressing daytime drowsiness due to certain medical conditions, as an aid in quitting cocaine use.

As a devoted admirer, let me share that Modafinil stepped into my life as a savior when my home-based cocaine usage spiraled out of control and turned into an issue.

Initially, visiting those intense locations was challenging for me, so I developed a way to cope. Later on, you can understand that the experience was almost unreal.

After sharing a seldom-disclosed perspective on his relationship with Jade, Jordan spoke during his visit to the Kite Festival.

He said:  ‘I have to give a shout out to my current girlfriend. The relationship I’m in now I feel secure and safe. I feel love and I feel connected to a person. 

‘I didn’t have an understanding that I could feel love like this.’

Before Jade, Jordan was in a relationship with actress Amber Anderson. They split in 2019. 

Jordan added that he has become more open with his feelings as he’s got older. 

He said: ‘I would never recommend somebody keep their heart closed for a long time because it’s isolating and I think that’s where the more damaging behaviours will come from. 

Individuals who have suffered deep trauma or experienced profound heartache at a tender age may find it challenging to open up emotionally, resulting in behaviors that appear indifferent or lacking empathy towards others.

‘The flipside is there are people who keep their heart too open, I really believe that too, that they allow everything in and they are unable to cope because it’s our responsibility to hold boundaries. 

I can recognize the sensation of being with specific individuals who make my heart feel alive, versus those who don’t. Setting boundaries has been a valuable lesson for me. It’s about knowing when to gently close the door a bit.
