The Rizzle Kicks star has opened up about his relationship with former Little Mix singer revealing they are still incredibly happy together after they started dating back in 2020. He told The Times newspaper: "I've been with my girlfriend, Jade, for five years and we are super in love. She's solo now but she was in Little Mix ... My mum obviously loves her too." Jordan also opened up about his past battles with drug abuse revealing he's been sober since 2018 and now he treats himself to a pastry if he's feeling down instead of turning to illegal substances like he did after shooting to fame as a teenager. He said: "Becoming famous so suddenly at 19 was a shock. It was positive in a hedonistic way but I wish I could have felt more present ... "I went sober in 2018. I was heartbroken; I had cheated and my relationship was over. I spoke to my mum about having suicidal thoughts ... " Article continues below He added: "Now if I'm going through something my spirals are filled with croissants not cocaine." Jordan has been supporting Jade since she launched a solo music career after Little Mix parted ways, and she gave him a special mention when she accepted her first solo BRIT Award earlier this year. Jade has previous credited the musician with being her biggest supporter as he helps her whenever she has feelings of self doubt. According to The Sun newspaper's Bizarre column, Jade said: "Something that Jordan taught me, whenever I'm feeling anxious or my self-saboteur is coming out, Jordan is always like, 'Just think of Little Jade, and look at what you've achieved. "'Little Jade from South Shields has done this? That's crazy'. That's always stuck with me. I have words of affirmation in my bedroom and one of them says, 'Little Jade is really proud of you'. "Any time I feel like s*** that really gets me through." Jade explained that Jordan's words of encouragement have helped her just as much as self-help books. Article continues below She said: "I feel like you read every self-help book, you have therapy, you speak to people but sometimes you forget about yourself. "You forget that there was a little version of yourself and if they were watching what you've done with your life now they would be like, 'Oh my gosh, I never thought I could achieve this'."

Maverick Sabre teases collaboration with Rizzle Kicks as he reveals he has 'something special' planned at Glastonbury
Irish singer-songwriter Maverick Sabre has teased a potential collaboration with British band Rizzle Kicks as he reveals he has 'something special' planned for his upcoming appearance at Glastonbury festival. The musician appeared on a Vodafone advert with the One Show presenter Roman Kemp and Harley Alexander-Sule, 33, from the hip-hop duo Rizzle Kicks. Roman, 32, asked the Let Me Go singer: 'So you guys have got something in common this summer. You're both playing Glastonbury festival. What's the connection going to be like there? I mean are you linking up? What's the deal?' Maverick, 34, cryptically replied: 'We'll figure out something special.' It has set tongues wagging amongst music fans who are convinced the friends will take the stage together for a joint performance. Mama Do The Hump singers Rizzle Kicks are performing on The Other Stage on Friday 27th June, while Maverick is playing on the Lonely Hearts Club stage the following day. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The news that Rizzle Kicks were performing at Glastonbury Festival was accidentally announced in April. Harley's band mate Jordan Stephens, 33, appeared on Arsenal's YouTube channe and was forced to make the revelation. Radio host Roman Kemp caused the mishap when he said outright to Jordan, 'You're playing Glastonbury this year,' to which the singer interrupted and said: 'I haven't actually announced that yet…' Harley has previously opened up about his 'crippling anxiety' and confessed he still feels 'awful' for cancelling the band's tour in 2016. The British musician admitted he 'couldn't visualise' doing a tour after he suffered from a panic attack on stage. Speaking to Jamie Laing on his Great Company podcast, the star said: 'I thought I was (having) a f*****g heart attack. Then we had a tour (which we) had to cancel because I just couldn't visualise doing that,' 'I still feel f*****g awful about that, but at the time, I had to take care of myself.' He then opened up on how his anxiety took control of his life and caused him to spiral into a 'deep depression'. He admitted: 'That anxiety spilled into everything, every part of my life, you know, I couldn't get on the tube.' 'It kind of caused me to spiral into quite a deep, deep depression.' 'Because the thing I love doing, being a performer, being an artist, being a person who likes being around other creative people, was like, zapped away from me,' 'And I was kind of left with, this idea of who I used to be and that longing to be that person again, but with the physical incapability of doing so.' It comes as Rizzle Kicks's Jordan Stephens celebrated his five years with his girlfriend, the Little Mix star Jade Thirlwall. The pop star, 32, and her Rizzle Kicks rapper boyfriend first sparked a romance after he asked a mutual friend to set them up back in 2019. Jade then took matters into her own hands, dropping Jordan a DM on Instagram asking for his 'pitch'. A few Zoom dates later the smitten couple were making their first public appearance together at a July 2020 Black Trans Lives Matter rally where they were pictured arm-in-arm. Five years on and the couple are still going strong - with Jade and Jordan appearing as loved-up as ever as she shared a gushing tribute to him on their anniversary. As their dog scurried past the camera, the video posted on TikTok showed a pyjama-clad Jade surprising her boyfriend in bed with a bunch of flowers and balloons to mark the special day. The post then cut to a compilation of Jade's favourite videos of Jordan, including smitten clips of the couple recording music, dancing and goofing around together. The spark seems very much still alive between the two musicians, who appeared completely smitten as they celebrated their milestone. A host of fans took to the comments section to congratulate their 'favourite couple' on five years together. They wrote: 'Happy anniversary to my favourite chaotic couple love you', 'I'm so happy for you both! It's been such a privilege to witness your relationship and love for each other! Thank you for giving us these glimpses into your life', 'This man is just a walking green flag I love that for you! He just gets it how humans are supposed to be', 'Couple goals. Fully supporting each other without the need to justify yourselves. Beautiful. A couple like no other.'
