16 & Pregnant’s Jordan Cashmyer checks into rehab
Jordan Cashmyer, who was featured in the 5th season of 16 & Pregnant, has checked herself into rehab, according to a report posted today.
Sources told TMZ that Jordan hit rock bottom recently after losing her job at the gym. Late last week, they added that Jordan was so intoxicated that it caused her to stumble at her mom’s home and the fall resulted in a concussion and injuries to her face.

In a detailed write up via Ashley’s Reality Roundup, it was revealed via a blog post in early January that Jordan’s struggles with drug addiction were ongoing and severe.
She has been hospitalized numerous times while abusing heroin, cocaine and alcohol among other drugs. Being lost in addiction led Jordan to attempt suicide in 2014.
“I suffered from very bad post-partum depression. While trying to get this issue under control, I started working at a [strip] club, a place that would completely alter my life in ways I never thought. For the past two years I have struggled with addiction… I practically used my body as a trashcan and would put whatever was given to me in my body,” she wrote.
Jordan’s episode of 16 & Pregnant was especially memorable due to her and Derek Taylor, the father of her daughter Genevieve, being essentially homeless at the time.
The TMZ report goes on to state that Jordan has checked into a Baltimore area rehab facility and that her daughter has been living with Derek Taylor’s mom.
