Cape Town – It’s been six months since the Tristan Thompson Jordyn Woods cheating scandal broke. In a new interview with Cosmopolitan, the fashion and beauty entrepreneur is talking about the moment that changed her life forever and how it forced her to grow up in front of everyone’s eyes.

"I didn’t know how to feel. I was like, 'That didn’t just happen.'" Jordyn claims Tristan was the one that kissed her and at the time, she didn’t quite know how to deal with the situation. She took a step back and just let things fall however they were going to - "I don’t believe in clapping back," she said – but that didn’t mean she didn’t see everything that Khloé, and the Kardashians’ millions of followers, were saying about her.
"Home-wrecker", "snake", death threats – those were just a few of the things she’d find online.
"It becomes addictive to look on the internet, to look at your name," she commented. "When I would look at my name and see all of the things that people were saying, it became like a tumour. It became cancerous to me.
"The internet feels so entitled to have opinions about everything, but a lot of it is bullshit. These are real people, with real lives. People are so detached that they don’t feel empathy, they don’t feel bad, they don’t realise that the one message that you sent laughing at someone could be the message that pushes that person off the ledge."
Just after what happened, Jordyn appeared on Red Table Talk and, again, while she admitted Tristan kissed her, nothing more "intimate" happened between them. Khloé accused Jordyn of lying though, and took to Twitter writing, "You ARE the reason my family broke up."
Khloé got backlash for what she'd tweeted, but so did Jordyn. And she didn't have very many people to lean on either.
After the scandal, Woods fell out with her childhood friend – her best friend. She moved out of Kylie’s house and has reportedly said that the friends she thought would be there for her, wasn’t. When asked about Kylie now, though, she was hopeful. "I love her. That’s my homie," she said.
"I hope everything falls into place and that we can all grow and build our relationships with our family and God and come back together one day and be stronger and happier."
