‘Lip King’ Jordan James Parke Dies: Two People Arrested on Suspicion of Manslaughter

He built a life on bold transformations, bigger lips, and unapologetic glamour — but now the man known as the "Lip King" has died in chilling and unexplained circumstances.

Jordan James Parke, the controversial media personality famed for his dramatic cosmetic enhancements, was pronounced dead after emergency services were called to a luxury tower block in east London.

Within days, two people had been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter — and a cloud of unanswered questions began to swirl. His devastated sister, Sharnelle Parke, confirmed the news in an emotional social media tribute that left followers reeling.

"This is going to be the hardest post I will ever have to write," Sharnelle began. "Our beautiful, funny most amazing Jordan James Parke passed away on Wednesday the 18th of February 2026. We as a family are numb, shocked and heartbroken."

Bracing herself for cruelty in the wake of her brother's high-profile reputation, she urged those who truly knew him to remember his heart.

"Jordan I have no words to explain the sadness and heartbreak that we are feeling you were our bestfriend," she wrote. "[...] There are simply no words to express how grateful that we had you in our lives. The world feels so empty without you. And I don't know how we are going to carry on 😭."

"I hope you are dancing in the sky with Nan and Granda ⭐," she concluded. "Goodnight godbless beautiful! 😭 🩷."

Her raw grief struck a chord — but as tributes poured in, a far darker development emerged.

Jordan was pronounced dead on Wednesday, 18 February 2026, after paramedics rushed to Lincoln Plaza in Canary Wharf at 12:38 GMT following reports of an unconscious man.

According to the Metropolitan Police, emergency services declared him dead at the scene. His death is currently being treated as "unexplained," with a post-mortem examination scheduled to determine the exact cause.

Shortly after news broke, police confirmed that a 43-year-old man and a 52-year-old woman had been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter. The pair were detained on Friday, 20 February, before being released on bail pending further investigation.

Officers stressed that inquiries remain ongoing. One line of investigation is examining whether Jordan had undergone a cosmetic procedure prior to his death — a detail that has only intensified speculation.

Often dubbed the "British Lip King," Jordan carved out a highly visible — and highly polarising — place in Britain's influencer culture.

He began undergoing cosmetic surgery at just 19 years old, embarking on a journey that would include multiple nose jobs, lip and jawline fillers, a Brazilian butt lift, a chin implant, and more.

To admirers, he was fearless and refreshingly honest. To critics, he embodied the extreme edge of aesthetic culture. But Jordan never wavered.

His television appearances only fuelled his notoriety. He featured twice on the reality series "Botched" — first in 2015 and again in 2019 — seeking help for complications from previous surgeries.

In one episode, he consulted doctors about his "leaking lips." In another, surgeons refused to perform a second nose job, warning it could compromise his breathing.

He also appeared on "This Morning" in 2016, describing plastic surgery as a "hobby" and insisting he had "never hated" himself — a statement that sparked fierce debate among viewers.

In the months leading up to his death, Jordan remained no stranger to headlines.

A BBC investigation in October 2025 reported that he had previously been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter following the death of Alice Webb, a 33-year-old mother-of-five from Gloucestershire.

Alice died after undergoing a non-surgical "liquid BBL" procedure at a clinic run by Jordan and fellow beautician Jemma Pawlyszyn. Although Jordan was not charged, the case drew national scrutiny and reignited calls for stricter regulation of aesthetic treatments across the UK.

The so-called liquid BBL involves injecting hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers into the buttocks and is often marketed online as a safer and more affordable alternative to surgery. However, the procedure has raised serious medical concerns, including risks of blood clots, sepsis, and tissue death.

Following Alice's death, GP and aesthetics practitioner Dr Roshan Ravindran, known as Dr Rosh, publicly called for tighter controls to ensure that only trained medical professionals are permitted to carry out such procedures.

Jordan, who described himself online as "The Plastic Surgery Advocate," maintained at the time that he was fully qualified and insured to perform the treatment. He stated that he had trained with a Harley Street doctor, though he was not a registered surgeon.

Alice had reportedly been attending a training session at the clinic when she underwent the procedure and subsequently became unwell. She was taken to Gloucestershire Royal Hospital on 24 September and died the following day.

Her mother later confirmed that hospital staff had been unable to resuscitate her. A post-mortem examination was launched, with results still pending at the time of the inquest.

Jordan's name remained linked to the incident. Speaking to MailOnline shortly after Alice's death, he said, "I can't talk to anybody. I was arrested but I've been released."

The same BBC investigation also alleged that he had been illegally selling prescription-only weight-loss injections online.

Now, as detectives work to establish what happened inside that Canary Wharf apartment, the man who lived his life boldly in the public eye has left behind a swirl of unanswered questions.

For his family, however, the headlines matter little. They are grieving a brother, a son, a friend.

And until the post-mortem results are known, the death of Jordan James Parke — influencer, provocateur, and self-proclaimed plastic surgery advocate — remains officially, and hauntingly, "unexplained."
