How did Jordynne Grace meet her husband Jonathan Gresham?
According to Ringside News, Jordynne Grace met her husband when she was a minor. But they only started dating when she reached legal age. Grace posted on her X handle when a fan accused her husband of dating her when she was a minor.
He finally said yes long after I was “of legal age”. It makes me sick that I have to address this on my birthday, so I truly thank everyone who is trying to push this forward. There was not this kind of reaction towards any of my actual abusers I mentioned during “speaking out”.

Jordynne Grace was able to appear on WWE despite being the TNA Knockouts Champion
Jordynne Grace shocked everyone by entering the WWE Women’s Royal Rumble 2024 at the number 5 spot. She straight away went to attack Naomi, who also made her return to the Stamford-based promotion after she left in 2022.
The Jordynne Grace situation is a bit different than the Mickie James’ 2022 Royal Rumble appearance, Fightful Select has learned.
Grace is still under TNA contract, while Mickie said she was always on a verbal agreement. TNA helped make both happen.

Jordynne Grace showed up with her TNA Knockouts World Championship, which made fans wonder how she did it. People were also wondering how she could make an appearance in a rival promotion when she was already signed to IMPACT wrestling.
But according to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful, TNA helped it happen as it did before for Mickie James. It shows how WWE and IMPACT Wrestling have an understanding between them.
