Reality star who spent over $134k to 'look like Kim Kardashian' dies as family speaks out
Reality TV star Jordan James Parke has passed away over a year on from his arrest, his sister announced online.
Parke appeared on British TV shows like This Morning and Bodyshockers, as well as hit US reality show Botched.
In total, it's said that Parke had more than 50 cosmetic surgeries in his lifetime and once spoke of Kim Kardashian being his muse.
He'd described himself as being 'The Plastic Surgery Advocate' and some of the procedures he underwent included a lip lift, chin implant, and several rounds of liposuction, according to Mail Online.

Announcing the news of his death on Instagram, his sister Sharnelle Parke penned: "Our beautiful, funny most amazing Jordan James Parke passed away on Wednesday the 18th of February 2026. We as a family are numb, shocked and heartbroken."
"There will be some unkind messages that will be posted regarding this heartbreaking news … but please if you knew Jordan you will know that none of what will be posted is true and please keep him in your heart!"
Sharnelle proceeded to describe Parke as being the family's 'whole world', adding: "There are simply no words to express how grateful that we had you in our lives."
As well as featuring on television, Parke — who commonly referred to as the 'Lip King' — owned his own beauty salon in Gloucestershire, UK. It was here that he carried out a liquid BBL on 33-year-old Alice Webb, who died the day after having the procedure in September 2024.
A month later Parke was arrested in connection to Webb's death on suspicion on manslaughter and later released.
As of December 2025, Parke was still on bail and had not been charged.
Webb's family have spoke out in the wake of Parke's passing last week. They said in a statement, via ITV News: "We have heard the news that Jordan Parke has died. This brings mixed emotions, as it inevitably reminds us of the deeply painful loss of Alice.
"While we will never see him face trial, our fight for justice for Alice continues. We remain committed to campaigning for stricter regulations to prevent tragedies like Alice’s.
"Our focus remains on honouring Alice’s memory and advocating for meaningful change."
Webb's family are trying to bring in 'Alice's Law' in the UK that would see liquid BBL procedures only be performed by qualified individuals, such as a plastic surgeon on the General Medical Council specialist register.
