Face of Nation : To say that Jordyn Woods has had a drama-filled 2019 is an understatement.
The 21-year-old became known as more than just Kylie Jenner’s BFF when she was embroiled in the Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson cheating scandal.
It all came to a head this week with an explosive episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, which finally documented how the Kardashians handled the drama — which broke back in February — as it played out in front of their reality TV cameras.
For the most part, Woods, has remained quiet on the matter after telling her version of events to Jada Pinkett Smith on Red Table Talk in March.
Now, the Instagram model is returning to the spotlight, this time for the launch of her second capsule collection, Jordyn Woods x Boohoo, for online fashion chain Boohoo.
The LA-based model was in New York this week to launch her new Boohoo range, in the same week as the much-anticipated episode of KUWTK screened.
The collection, her second for the fast fashion retailer, is stocked in US sizes 2-24 and priced from $15 to $60.
It includes Woods’ wardrobe staples of skin-tight party dresses, crop tops, tailored blazers and maxi dresses, with a colour palette of hot pink, red, metallics, purple, yellow and black.
While Woods is ready to make fashion her focus, of course talk at the New York launch of Jordyn Woods x Boohoo turned to the Keeping Up With the Kardashians drama.
Woods responded to allegations that she never apologised to Khloe for hooking up with her ex-boyfriend, NBA star Tristan Thompson.
“It’s just, you know, things happen, and of course I’m sorry and apologetic as much as I can be,” Woods said.
She also hit back at Kim Kardashian’s accusation that she took handouts from Kylie Jenner to support her family.
“I definitely work very hard for a lot of the things that I have, and as you can see, I’m out here hustling, and I’ve always been working,” Woods said, according toEntertainment Tonight.
“I started modelling when I was 18, and you know, I work hard.”
Of her clothing range, Woods told Entertainment Tonight: “It’s more of a going out collection, something with a lot of personality to where if you maybe aren’t feeling like going out, but then you have that bomb outfit, it’s going to inspire you”.
“And there’s a lot of different selection for all different types of girls and different body types.”
“It’s important to dream big because nothing is impossible and you have to understand that no matter where you come from, whether you start here or you start here, we all have the same amount of hours in the day,” Woods added.
Since the cheating scandal, the Kardashians have cut ties with Woods, who once modelled for Khloe’s inclusive-sized denim label, Good American.
When the scandal broke earlier this year Jordyn claimed Thompson had kissed her at an afterparty and denied they had sex.
In a four way phone call with her sisters Kourtney, Kylie and Kendall, Khloe recounted Jordyn’s explanation of the night on Keeping Up With the Kardashians.
“So I spoke to Jordyn,” Khloe told the others. “She was in between his legs, she said, ‘I can’t remember if we kissed.’
“It was weird that she didn’t text me at all that evening (when it happened) because every single time in the past, if Jordyn would ever see Tristan, she would text me.
“So Jordyn called me and said, ‘I was your watchdog last night, I was there to protect me and keep an eye out — that’s why she stayed as late as she did.
“She’s blaming him — she’s like, ‘I was so naive.’”
