Jordan James Parke—known as ‘Lip King’—has passed away at 34
Manslaughter arrests made, following cosmetic procedure investigation
British social media personality and reality TV figure Jordan James Parke, popularly known as the “Lip King”, has died at the age of 34, prompting an ongoing police investigation and the arrest of two people on suspicion of manslaughter.
Parke was found unconscious on February 18 at Lincoln Plaza in Canary Wharf, London, after emergency services were called to the scene. He was pronounced dead shortly afterwards. Police are treating the death as unexplained but have indicated the possibility that he may have been undergoing a cosmetic procedure at the time.
On February 20, a forty-three-year-old man and a fifty-two-year-old woman were arrested on suspicion of manslaughter in connection with Parke’s death. Both suspects have since been bailed pending further investigation as authorities await the results of a full post-mortem examination.
Parke rose to fame partly through his appearances on the reality television series ‘Botched’, where his extensive cosmetic transformation journey—including dozens of procedures and over $150,000 spent on enhancements—was documented. He had openly embraced extreme aesthetic treatments in pursuit of his self-styled look.
The influencer’s death comes amid wider controversy. In 2024, Parke was arrested on suspicion of manslaughter after the death of a woman, Alice Webb, who died following a non-surgical Brazilian Butt Lift procedure at a clinic he co-operated. He was never charged and was due to answer bail in March 2026.
Parke’s family has expressed deep grief over his sudden passing. Details from the current investigation continue to emerge, with authorities focusing on establishing the precise circumstances surrounding his last hours and the role cosmetic procedures may have played.
