You can watch the interview with Alex here:

From there things only went more downhill as Jordan started controlling Alex's social media accounts and took his phone away preventing him from contacting anyone.

When they moved in together in 2016, the physical abuse started:

" It started off I was lying in the bed. She'd wait until I was asleep then hit me on the head with a bottle. Then she moved on to a hammer. Started hitting me everywhere - shins, arms, head.

 I was made to sleep on the floor for about eight months. There was nothing I could do. I had no way of contacting anyone and if I ever tried to leave she told me she would kill me.

 She started stabbing me with a knife, hit me like it was a weapon. It would leave big gashes that were untreated.

 Then we went to go watch a concert. I woke up because she was pouring boiling water over my back. It was like an alarm call.

He also showed hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield a scar on one of his hands left from Jordan's knife wound

Alex added it wasn't until neighbours called the police after hearing screaming coming from their apartment did he open up to an officer about what was happening.

From there Alex took it further leading to Jordan becoming the first woman to be convicted of these offences.

When Phil asked Alex how he feels about Jordan now, he replied:

" I don't need to waste my energy thinking about her. There is no need for that.

Alex concluded by saying people only understand why he didn't get out only if they have been through it themselves.

However, he encouraged others to 'talk' as 'if you talk about it, you're going to get better'.
