Jordan North is forced to defend himself following backlash after he was criticised for 'jumping into the River Thames to save a drowning dog'


Jordan North was forced to defend himself from critics as he corrected the narrative that he jumped into the River Thames to save a drowning dog on Monday.

Jordan spoke about the terrifying incident on his Capital Breakfast show on Tuesday, giving 'a big thank you and a massive shout out to RNLI Chiswick who came and rescued me because I was getting a bit panicky.' Thames Commander Gavin Simmons, alongside crew Sid Blake, Tom Coe and Cameron Crawley were the ones who got Jordan and the dog to safety. Discussing the three-week whirlwind in Wales, and how he survived the myriad of trials and challenges, Jordan explained it was his brother and I'm A Celeb host Declan Donnelly whose wise words got him through.
