House of Horrors survivor Jordan Turpin has revealed she has a new boyfriend - six years after she was rescued from her abusive parents, who tortured and imprisoned all 13 of their children in a harrowing years-long ordeal.
The 23-year-old, from California, has set up a joint Instagram account with love interest Matt Ryan where the couple have been cozying up in a series of clips and selfies.
The initial post was left captionless but she later confirmed the duo were an item after uploading a light-hearted video alongside a caption that read: 'My boyfriend guessing where my makeup products go on my face. Hope you guys enjoy.
'Thank y'all for all the love and support you giving us in the last 24 hours.'
Jordan's newfound freedom comes after she helped to rescue her siblings from her parents' home in Perris, California, in 2018 where they endured years of torture and abuse.

Jordan and Matt's shared Instagram has a simple bio that reads: 'Finding joy in the little things.'
The announcement was met with widespread support from fans who flooded the comments with praise for the couple as one wrote: 'What a sweetheart! So happy for you both!'
Another added: 'I'm so happy for you Jordan!!! You look so happy!!!'
And a third simply shared: 'You guys are so cute together!!!'
The new romance appears to mark a fresh start for Jordan who candidly shared earlier this year that she had previously been stuck in a 'bad toxic relationship.'
She made an Instagram reel packed with clips of her various emotions before reflecting about her experiences in a lengthy caption.
'It's been a hard journey. I'm okay now but I come off strong all the time and want people to know they are not alone that's why I made this video,' she divulged.
Jordan then dished: 'I got stuck in a bad toxic relationship. Only two of my sisters were there for me. I end up in the hospital because my health was failing. I had to go to therapy to see why I kept going back to him and I learned it was a trauma bond.'

Jordan (circled) was first thrust into the spotlight in 2018 aged just 17 when she was able to escape the home of parents David and Louise Turpin
Jordan has become an increasing presence on social media after becoming a popular personality on TikTok since joining in May 2021 - having collaborated with the likes of Loren Gray and Charli D'Amelio.
She has now built up a loyal fan base of more than 1.4 million followers on the video-sharing app.
Jordan was first thrust into the spotlight in 2018 aged just 17 when she was able to escape the home of parents David and Louise Turpin.
She had grown up in horrific conditions all her life but managed to get out of the home when her parents were out one day.
With a contraband phone, she called 911 and alerted police to her parents' abuse, enabling authorities to finally free her and her siblings from their house of horrors.
'I was telling them everything. We don't go to school. We live in filth. We starve. And all the stuff,' she told Diane Sawyer in November.
Police came to investigate and arrested her parents who last year pleaded guilty to several felonies and were each sentenced to life sentences with the possibility of parole after serving 25 years.
Following the arrests in January 2018, horrific details began to emerge of the extent of torture, abuse and neglect that the children endured - being beaten and starved, shackled to beds and denied basic hygiene.
Deputies testified that the children said they were only allowed to shower once a year.
They were mainly kept in their rooms except for meals, which had been reduced from three to one per day, a combination of lunch and dinner.

For years, the siblings' diet consisted of nothing but two slices of bread with peanut butter or bologna. The couple were also accused of taunting their children with pies and other food that they were forbidden to eat.
The Turpin parents chowed down on fast food in front of them, chaining the children to filthy beds if they tried to steal food.
'They still can't look at peanut butter or bologna,' Deputy District Attorney Kevin Beecham told People magazine last year.
The Turpin offspring weren't allowed to play like normal children and were deprived of things other kids had, including toys and games.
Since being rescued, some of the children have said that the social services system that was supposed to help them transition to new lives didn't do what it was supposed to.
Riverside County hired a private law firm to look into allegations that the seven adult and six minor children in the Turpin family did not get basic services they needed after they were freed from their parents' prison-like home, ABC News reported.
A conservatorship, like the one Britney Spears was previously freed from, is allegedly preventing even the adult Turpins from accessing some $600,000 in donated funds, leaving them living in squalor and on the brink of homelessness.
There also is a criminal investigation of a foster family suspected of mistreating several children, including one of the Turpins, ABC reported. A lawyer for that family previously denied the allegations.
Some of the children reported they 'felt betrayed' by local officials' handling of their cases, said Melissa Donaldson, Riverside County's director of victim services.
Donaldson said there were times when the children did not have a safe place to stay or enough food, with the adult children thrust into 'couch surfing' at times and prevented from accessing their $600,000 trust by a court-appointed conservator.
