Jesy Nelson moves on from ex Zion with mystery man few months post split

Jesy Nelson just fueled romance rumours on Friday when she enjoyed an evening out with a mystery man, three months after her split from Zion Foster.

The former Little Mix star ended her four-year relationship with Zion in January just weeks after the couple announced their twin daughters, Ocean Jade and Story Monroe, had been diagnosed with SMA (Spinal Muscular Atrophy) Type 1, a rare genetic condition that causes muscle wastage.

Sharing an update to her Instagram Story, Jesy uploaded a photo of her out for cocktails, on which appeared to be a date night.

A man's hand was seen holding one drink while she sat beside him and clutched to the stem of her glass as they spent time at a bar.

The singer included no other information in the update but had also been out for a game of Padel earlier in the day.

In January it was first revealed that Jesy and Zion had split, with a source saying to The Sun, “She and Zion remain friends and are fully focused on their daughters.”

“Their priority continues to be the well-being of their daughters. They are fully united in co-parenting,” they added.

Jesy had been spotted without her engagement ring during her This Morning appearance where she discussed daughters Ocean and Story's diagnoses.

She had hoped to finally embrace motherhood after a complicated pregnancy, during which she learned her daughters were monochorionic diamniotic (MCDA) identical twins, and had twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS), a rare condition where both babies share a placenta.

However, she was relieved and joyful that her babies were born healthy but her joy did not last long when the two infants were diagnosed with SMA just six months later.

Now campaigning for all newborns to be tested for spinal muscular atrophy at birth, Jesy Nelson insists that early diagnosis is crucial, as a one-time infusion can significantly improve muscle development.
