Jordan Stephens acknowledges girlfriend Jade Thirlwall ‘earns a lot more money than’ him

Rizzle Kicks star Jordan Stephens doesn’t feel a type of way about Jade Thirlwall ‘earning more money’ than him.

The Angel of My Dreams hitmaker, 32, confirmed the couple met during COVID, telling us in 2020: ‘I ended up meeting someone in lockdown which is strange.

‘I quite enjoyed doing it that way. We had real dates and really got to know each other. I wouldn’t say I was looking for anyone at the time.’

Speaking about their relationship on the We Need to Talk podcast with Paul Carrick Brunson, the Down With the Trumpets singer, 33, how much he loves Jade’s success.

‘My girlfriend earns more money than me. She’s super successful, and I f****g love it,’ he said.

Mentioning how some would find that ’emasculating,’ he added: ‘It’s reflected in the fact that I talk positively about Jade’s career. They get shared loads.

‘I’ve actually had a lot of personal texts from people who have been in situations where their partner, usually male partner has struggled with their success, or they felt emasculated by their success.

‘Whereas for me, she’s my superstar and I’m her superstar.’

Since the couple met, both Jade and Jordan have shared plenty of cute moments on social media.

Previously speaking about their compatibility to Metro, she gushed: ‘Me and Jordan… we are a good match. We are so chilled out, we are horizontal!’

The duo have travelled the world together, holidaying in Costa Rica in January 2024, with Jade posting some snaps of their trip.

Rizzle Kicks became synonymous with summer in the 2010s, with tunes that just made people want to dance and sing.

Harley can be seen loading a boombox with a cassette tape which reads ‘Rizzle Kicks Weather’, a nod to that sunshine party feeling so closely associated with the duo.

Fans have gone wild for the new music with Zee on X declaring: ‘Real music is back.’

Many have compared the reunion to another rather big music return this week, with Rhia stating: ‘They’re my Oasis.’

‘1st biggest reunion of the week,’ wrote Cian as Daniel shared: ‘Best comeback this week ????????.’

‘I feel like I’m 14 years old again,’ joked Jake Liddy while Becky simply added: ‘I’m so happy ????????????.’

Rizzle Kicks landed their number one hit on a collaboration with Olly Murs, titled Heart Skips a Beat and had numerous other chart hits, including Down With The Trumpets.

The Brighton-based hitmakers have sold over 1 million singles and over 600,000 albums in the UK and their return was hailed as the ‘saviour of music.’
