A density problem for Sobolev spaces on planar domains

We prove that for a bounded simply connected domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb R^2$, the Sobolev space $W^{1,\,\infty}(\Omega)$ is dense in $W^{1,\,p}(\Omega)$ for any $1\le p<\infty$. Moreover, we show that if $\Omega$ is Jordan, then $C^{\infty}(\mathbb R^2)$ is dense in $W^{1,\,p}(\Omega)$ for $1\le p<\infty$.
