Jordan’s cause of death has yet to be determined, according to Variety. Jordan died in Maryland.

Jordan was previously featured in a 16 and Pregnant episode from 2014. She appeared alongside her family and former boyfriend Derek Taylor, with whom she later parted after her stint on the show finished.

Jordan struggled to find job while on 16 and Pregnant and also endured homelessness as a pregnant adolescent when her family shunned her due to their disapproval of her relationship with Taylor.
