Jordan, who has over 1.1million followers on Instagram, recently spoke to GQ magazine about leaving his native Australia to live a life in New York.

‘I’m not looking at it like I’m gone for good,’ he confessed.

He also spoke about his battle with mental health, and said that returning to Australia for three months earlier in the year gave him time to reflect on himself.

‘From being 17, and being extremely successful overseas in what I was doing, but not even really knowing what it was I was doing…’ he explained.

‘When I was scouted, I didn’t even understand what it meant to be a model. I didn’t know what was going on in my mind. I didn’t even know what a panic attack was until now.’
