Although he was born in York Jordan grew up in Burnley and attended St James Lanehead Primary School. He is a keen Clarets fan and during his second bushtucker trial he repeated the phrase 'Happy place, happy place Turf Moor' to help him though the ordeal.
He won the hearts of the viewers, and also Burnley fans who are thrilled he is putting the town and the football club in the spotlight, which is helping to lift people's spirits.
Burnley FC captain Ben Mee has also recorded a special 'good luck' for Jordan on behalf of the team.
Now a Radio One DJ, Jordan has admitted he has a string of fears and phobias, including heights, snakes and insects and the show's presenters, Ant and Dec, have described him as the ' scaredest' contestant they have ever had.
But fellow contestants, including Olympic legend Sir Mo Farah, actor Shane Richie, and Coronation Street legend Bev Callard, have taken him to their hearts.
