Jordyn Woods crafted a heartfelt gift to celebrate four years with her boyfriend, NBA player Karl-Anthony Towns.
On Tuesday, the 26-year-old model and founder of Woods by Jordyn shared a song she wrote and recorded for Towns, called “Be with You.” In the song, she expresses her deep affection, singing lyrics like, “You stood by me, thick and thin / all I want is your loving,” and “When you’re by my side, always feel complete / Boy, you got my heart, you know what I need.”
Woods’ Instagram post on May 21 featured a clip of this song along with a montage of intimate moments between the couple, captioned, “4 years with my Bestfriend. ??”

This anniversary celebration comes just after Towns’ team, the Minnesota Timberwolves, advanced to the Western Conference NBA Finals. Following a significant 98-90 victory over the Denver Nuggets, Woods penned a tribute on Instagram, exclaiming, “Western Conference Finals!!! Are you kidding me!?!? Couldn’t be happier for this team and most importantly Karl.”
She praised Towns for overcoming numerous challenges, including a knee surgery earlier in the season, writing, “I am so proud and in awe of him. ? This is your moment! ?????.”
The couple, who were introduced by a mutual friend years ago, went public with their relationship in September 2020. Their bond deepened through shared experiences of loss; Woods lost her father in 2017, while Towns’ mother passed away in 2020.
In an interview with Extra, Woods shared that their connection grew from their similar experiences of losing a parent at a young age, describing their relationship progression from friends to lovers as “very organic.”
Towns has often spoken about the significant support Woods has provided him through various personal trials, including family losses and health challenges. He publicly acknowledged her steadfast support in an Instagram story in January 2021, and later told PEOPLE in February how daily support from Woods, both on and off the court, is “truly special” to him.
He reflected on the positive influence of the women in his life, adding, “You know, with my mom and my sister, I’ve seen the impact that good women have on men’s lives, and I’m just blessed that I saw that firsthand before I got with Jordyn so that I could learn to appreciate her.”
