TOWIE Star's Final Hours: Phuket 'Shootout' Threat
20 Mar
Summary
- Wright was heard threatening a 'shootout' on a phone call.
- He was seen running erratically near a drainage ditch.
- His death occurred in a construction site drainage canal.

Reality TV personality Jordan Wright was discovered deceased in a drainage canal on a construction site in Thailand on March 14, 2026. Prior to his death, CCTV footage from March 12, 2026, showed the 33-year-old firefighter, known for his appearances on TOWIE, running erratically near a drainage ditch. Later that night, he was heard having a loud phone argument, during which he appeared to threaten a 'f****** shootout'.
Authorities are investigating the identity of the person on the other end of the call and the exact nature of their conversation. A family staying at a neighboring hotel reportedly heard Wright shouting and later observed someone wading in the water near where he was found. The exact cause of death is believed to be drowning in the stagnant water, though the precise time remains undetermined. Wright had arrived in Thailand in December 2025 on a digital nomad visa.
