Trevor Noah’s ex-girlfriend, Jordyn Taylor, has made explosive allegations against the South African comedian, accusing him of stealing her jokes.

Jordyn Taylor’s Shocking Confession
In episode two of Selling The City, Jordyn Taylor, who is now a real estate agent, dropped a bombshell about her relationship with Trevor Noah.
While speaking to a colleague, Taylor revealed that she initially moved to New York for love and recalled how she met Noah on Twitter (now X). She claimed that Trevor Noah was a nobody at the time when they started dating.
“At the time, he was a nobody. No one knew who he was,” she said.
She further added,
“I was the funnier one in the relationship.”
This statement set the stage for her later confession during a diary segment. Jordyn claimed that Trevor Noah frequently borrowed material from her, even going so far as to steal her jokes.
“Trevor borrowed me for material all the time. But he would also steal my material, a 100%,” she said, sparking further controversy.
Behind the Scenes of Their Relationship
Taylor also revealed that she played a significant role in helping Trevor Noah purchase his $10 million (R187 million) New York apartment.
“That’s the only time you’ll ever hear that I slept with a client,” she joked, adding an intriguing layer to their past relationship.
The couple, who began dating shortly after Trevor’s official move to the US in 2015, were often seen as a power couple.
They attended the 2018 MTV Movie Awards together, where Noah won the Best Host award. However, their romance came to an end later that year, following a low-key breakup.
