Jordan James Parke, 34, who rose to fame through his obsession with cosmetic surgery and numerous television appearances, passed away on 18 February 2026, his sister announced on social media, saying her family were “numb, shocked and heartbroken” as they shared their grief and asked for kindness in response to the tragic news.

Parke became widely known for extensively transforming his appearance through cosmetic procedures, admitting in interviews that plastic surgery had become a “hobby” and featuring on shows such as This Morning, Bodyshockers and the US reality series Botched to discuss his experiences, having undergone dozens of operations including lip filler, nose jobs and a chin implant.

He was arrested in September 2024 on suspicion of manslaughter after 33‑year‑old mother‑of‑five Alice Webb died after a non‑surgical liquid Brazilian butt lift at a clinic he was involved with, though he was never charged, and was out on bail and due to answer bail in March 2026 before his sudden death.

Following reports of an unconscious man at Lincoln Plaza in Canary Wharf on 18 February, emergency services attended and Parke was pronounced dead at the scene, and the Metropolitan Police described his death as unexplained, with inquiries under way to establish the full circumstances, including whether it was linked to a cosmetic procedure. On Friday 20 February, two people, a 43‑year‑old man and a 52‑year‑old woman, were arrested on suspicion of manslaughter in connection with Parke’s death and have since been released on bail pending further investigation, as officers continue to await the results of a post‑mortem examination.

In the wake of his passing, friends and fans have paid tribute to Parke’s larger‑than‑life personality and impact on those around him, remembering him as a,

“fabulous, crazy, kind‑hearted person” and “the life and soul of the party,”

While critics have highlighted ongoing concerns around the safety and regulation of non‑surgical cosmetic treatments.

Alice Webb’s family have also commented on the mixed emotions sparked by Parke’s death, saying it serves as a stark reminder of their own painful loss and that their campaign for stricter regulation of dangerous aesthetic procedures, including liquid BBLs, remains undiminished, with calls for reform to prevent further tragedies.
