Jordyn Woods is letting fans see a side of her life she rarely talks about. The model and entrepreneur appeared on The Tamron Hall Show to discuss her personal growth and her relationship with Minnesota Timberwolves star Karl-Anthony Towns.
During the interview, Woods described Towns as her “best friend” and said she loves “doing life together” with him, BET reports. “We were friends for years before we got together, so for me it was never like, ‘OMG, I just met this guy,’” she told Hall.
She explained that their bond strengthened through shared challenges, per ClutchPoints. “He went through a lot in his life,” Woods said. “I lost my dad when I was 18, and through what I went through, I was able to be a different type of support system. That was what really blossomed our relationship.”
When asked about the traits Towns values most in her, Woods said her “sense of humor” and “resilience.” She added that she sees those same qualities in him, describing the NBA star as playful and full of energy. “He’s like a big kid and sometimes it’s a lot, but he really keeps things exciting.”
A Relationship Built on Support and Growth
Woods and Towns began as friends before their relationship turned romantic. Their connection has deepened over time, although Woods says she prefers to keep much of it private.
Last October, engagement rumors began swirling when Woods posted a mirror selfie wearing a large diamond ring, Complex reports. She later addressed the speculation on the CultureCon Uncut podcast, explaining that she is content with where the relationship stands.
“Something that I see on social media now is like, ‘Okay, where’s the ring?’” Woods said. “I’m 26. I’m not saying I don’t want it. I’d be happy whenever the time comes. But I’m not going to leave someone because it’s not here when you want it to be.”
Her calm approach reflects the stability that defines their relationship. Both Woods and Towns have spoken about the importance of patience and mutual respect as they navigate public attention together.
Karl-Anthony Towns Reflects on Their Bond
In an interview with Haute Living, Towns shared stories that revealed how their relationship began and how it continues to thrive. The couple first met at a mutual friend’s party about five years ago, and, according to Towns, he “solidly beat her” during a game of UNO that same night.
Since then, their bond has grown through shared experiences and thoughtful gestures. Towns said they once purchased matching Audemars Piguet watches for their anniversary and had them engraved. “In a way, we were making an investment in each other,” he explained. “These watches will always be connected, and every time we wear them, it will remind us of one another.”
He also reminisced about a trip to Capri, Italy, where they enjoyed a quiet dinner away from the spotlight. “We were just enjoying each other,” Towns said. “That moment made me realize how special it was.”
Towns described their relationship as both playful and grounded. “I definitely like stimulating conversation,” he said. “That’s what me and Jordyn have always had. It’s what’s kept us on our toes.”
For both Woods and Towns, this chapter is about partnership and appreciation. They continue to grow together while prioritizing the simple joys that come with love, laughter, and time well spent.
