Jordyn woods and Karl-Anthony Towns are engaged

Posted on January 4, 2026

Jordyn Woods and Karl-Anthony Towns are engaged after five years of dating.

The pair were in New York when Towns surprised Woods by getting down on one knee and, with a massive diamond ring, asking her to be his wife.

The couple made the announcement on their social media pages on Christmas day, with the caption: Marry Christmas.

Woods became famous as the best friend of one of the Kardashian/Jenner sisters, Kylie Jenner.

She was heavily entangled with the family for years, often appearing on their reality show, Keeping up with the Kardashians.

Their relationship ended when Khloe Kardashian’s boyfriend at the time, Tristan Thompson, allegedly kissed Woods at a house party.

Thompson is the father of Kardashian’s two children (she was pregnant with their first-born daughter, True, at the time).

The Kardashian/Jenner family rallied around Khloe and exiled Woods, seemingly putting the bulk of the blame on her for the kiss.

Woods explained what happened on Red Table Talk, a talk show hosted by close family friend Jada Pinkett Smith, who gave her the platform to share her side of the story.

Smith explained that the Woods family had a close relationship with the Smiths.

Woods and Jenner met through Jaden Smith, Jada’s son and a close friend of Woods, who was friends with Kylie.

Woods started dating Town after the friendship ended. 

She started her business, Woods By Jordyn, and started glowing up and losing weight, which she documented on her Instagram.

Woods and Jenner have reconnected in recent years.
