Big Brother fans went into meltdown on Friday as Henry and Jordan shared another kiss.
The food critic and the lawyer, 25, have been delighting viewers with their chemistry and potential romance although a spanner was thrown in the works when Jordan began flirting with doctor Matty, 24.
Last week, Henry made a move by planting a kiss on Jordan while the pair were in bed, with a shocked Jordan exclaiming: ‘We can’t kiss on camera, sorry’.
Yet during the show’s livestream, viewers were shocked as Henry reached in again for another smooch in the early hours of Friday morning as the pair lay together in bed chatting to Trish.
In his deadpan way, Jordan then turned to the stay at home mother and asked: ‘What was I saying to you before Henry rudely kissed me?’

Third wheeling: A spanner was thrown in the works when Jordan began flirting with Matty
Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, viewers penned: ‘wait jordan and henry kissed in front of trish or did i misshear? #bbuk’; ‘AHHH OMG jenry kiss confirmed by the man himself #BBUK’; ‘Omg Jordan kissed Henry?! #BBUK’;
‘JENRY KISSED????? #BBUK’; ‘was that a kiss?? #bbuk’; ‘OMFGGGG so ur telling me i missed a jenry kiss in front of trish???? i’m never sleeping again #bbuk’; ‘i just woke up wdym jordan and henry kissed again??????? #bbuk’; ‘NO WAY I WENT TO BED AND JENRY KISSED???? #bbuk’;
‘Nah I can’t actually sleep, like what was that last hour?!? Henry leaving something in Jordan’s bed that stunned him into awe, then he went to the DR, then Jordan whined for him to come back, then they cuddled, then they KISSED. What do we do with ourselves now!?! #BBUK’
‘I’m literally screaming, tonight’s live was so good. Like Henry and Jordan kissed again and in front of Trish?? They were so flirty today #BBUK’; ‘DID JORDAN KISS SOMEONE IM SO WHAT??? #BBUK’; ‘i want to hear more about the jenry kiss’;
‘how many more times is jordan going to kiss henry before he loses the plot and self evicts’; ‘#bbuk you better air this. we have seen them kiss TWICE, come on now’; ‘this is insane. i can’t even tell if its like a forehead kiss or like a proper kiss #BBUK’; ‘JORDAN AND HENRY JUST KISSED INFRONT OF MY EYES #BBUK’.
The touching moment came after viewers were left gobsmacked when Jordan opened up about his traumatic childhood in his typical darkly humorous way.
Jordan revealed that he was 16 when his father died of a heroin overdose and added that he had not gone to his dad’s funeral.
However, he left his friends Matty and Trish confused and viewers at home in hysterics as he delivered the sad revelation in a very dispassionate and indifferent way.
Oh my: Viewers were shocked as Henry reached in again for another smooch in the early hours of Friday morning
Sitting in the garden, the trio were discussing siblings when Jordan claimed he had no brothers or sisters.
Matty replied: ‘I thought you had a sibling?’ leading Jordan to explain: ‘Yeah a half one, but not from my mother.’
Trish clarified: ‘From your father. Do you talk to your father?’ to which Jordan answered airily: ‘No, he’s retired heroin addict.’
A shocked Trish asked: ‘Is that a serious comment or is that a joke? Because we can’t tell with you.’
Jordan responded drily: ‘No it’s a serious comment. And he was very generous with his sperm so I have many half siblings out and about. I don’t know them particularly, I know one of my half-sisters a bit.’
Trish went on to ask: ‘Do you know how many there are of you all together?’ to which Jordan said no.
Continuing to gently probe deeper, Trish said: ‘Did your dad ever try to get in touch?’
A blasé Jordan explained: ‘He’s dead, that’s why he’s retired,’ causing a baffled Matty to gasp: ‘Oh I didn’t get that.’
Jordan chuckled and said: ‘It was a bit of a joke. He is dead, he’s a retired heroin addict – he shot out of life.’
Matty replied: ‘Oh. So he died from heroin?’ and Jordan confirmed: ‘I think so. I know he died of an overdose and I know he did heroin so I just put two and two together.’
Getting candid: Jordan left his fellow housemates gobsmacked on Thursday night’s Big Brother as he opened up about his traumatic childhood in his typical darkly humorous way
He then apathetically added: ‘I didn’t go to the funeral. I don’t even think he had one.’
Trish pushed: ‘How do you feel about that?’ to which Jordan composedly replied: ‘I was 16. But that was a long time ago, I’m now 26. 10 years ago. But anyway that’s enough about me.’
Trish asked: ‘Do we make you feel safe enough to talk?’ and Jordan answered: ‘Yeah, that’s why I love talking to you.’
He then smiled and jokingly added: ‘In doses,’ causing the trio to break into laughter.

I like to do something different and I think this is the next challenge I want to conquer. I want to show people what pageant girls are really like and disprove a lot of stereotypes around them.

PROFESSION: Dental therapist
FROM: Llanelli
WHAT ARE YOU MOST LIKELY TO BE NOMINATED FOR? ‘Probably just for being annoying. In Wales, we have this saying, “I’ll do it now in a minute.” So like, if I went to make food and I left a dish on the side, I have all good intentions of washing it but I’d be like, “I’ll do it now in a minute,” and it might be three hours later before I do it. So probably for silly stuff like that.’

They’d say I was quite a peculiar child.’
KERRY
AGE: 40
PROFESSION: NHS manager
FROM: Essex
WHAT MADE YOU APPLY TO BE A BIG BROTHER HOUSEMATE? ‘I love the programme. It is, for me, the ultimate reality TV show ever. I’ve got multiple sclerosis and so the reason why I never applied before is because I always saw those whacking great big stairs to get into the house. It just felt a little bit unachievable because for the first three years of my illness I was in a wheelchair. When I saw it was coming back and searching for real people from all walks of life, I thought, this is my year.’
