In a 2018 appearance on “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen,” Ginuwine admitted that “early on” he and Jordan were an item in 1997. “She was the—my video was her first lead role. So, it was great,” he said of their rapport filming “Only When UR Lonely.”
Jordan saw the speculative discourse unfolding in the comments section and responded to two opinions. When one person said it was time for the singer and actress to go ahead and “bump genitalia’s,” Jordan responded, “omg!!! Lol.”
Another user was perplexed by their chemistry after thinking that Ginuwine was still married to rapper Solé. Jordan set the record straight as she explained, “he’s been divorced for many years and his wife has been remarried for years. Like 8 years ago.”
Ginuwine and Solé were together for 12 years when they divorced in 2015. The two musicians have two daughters, Story and Dream Sarae Lumpkin. In 2017, Solé married Public Enemy MC Professor Griff. “Plot twist… They already doing it lol. She was sure to clear up any rumors about his ex,” read a reaction to exchange between Jordan and the fan.
As for the alum from “The Real Housewives of Atlanta,” she secretly married actor Datari Turner in November 2009. She filed for an annulment just three months later after claiming he was a fraud who misrepresented himself. She also alleged that he may have had a girlfriend on the side during their relationship.
