Who was Jordan Wright? British reality TV star found dead in drainage canal in Thailand

British reality TV star Jordan Wright has died at the age of 33 in Phuket, Thailand. His body was found face down in a drainage canal near Bang Tao Beach on March 14, just days after moving to the country. Thai authorities believe he had been deceased for less than 48 hours when found.

CCTV footage showed him appearing restless outside the hotel before leaving the area. His hotel key card was found in his pocket, and his phone was located nearby. Authorities reported no signs of forced entry or physical assault in his room.
