Singer Jessie J has confirmed her romantic relationship with basketball player Chanan Colman has ended. The 38-year-old singer, who has a son Sky with Colman, 42, announced the split in an Instagram post, stating they would continue to be friends and co-parent their child.
Details of the Split
Jessie J, whose real name is Jessica Cornish, wrote: “Chanan and I decided to end our romantic relationship some time ago. It has been a sad and difficult situation, but we have been focused on navigating the change privately and positively for a healthy and happy co-parenting environment for our son, and ourselves.” She added that being in the public eye made it necessary to share the truth before rumours circulated. “We will always continue supporting each other with love, respect and care as friends and most importantly being Sky’s mum and dad, so if you see us out and about together as a family, or posting each other on socials every now and again, that’s exactly what we are doing. Raising and loving Sky together, supported with a positive friendship.”
Relationship Timeline
The Price Tag singer has reportedly been with Colman since 2021. Cornish shared a picture of the couple holding their son in the announcement post.
Health Background
The split comes after Cornish revealed in May that she had “sobbed for hours” upon learning she was cancer-free, following a breast cancer diagnosis last year that led her to temporarily step back from performing for treatment.
Musical Achievements
Jessie J has achieved three number-one songs in the UK singles chart: Domino, Price Tag, and Bang Bang. She won four Mobo awards in 2011, including best UK act, best newcomer, best song for Do It Like A Dude, and best album for Who You Are. She also won the Brit Award for rising star in 2011. Her latest album, Don’t Tease Me With A Good Time, was released in November 2025, and she read a CBeebies Bedtime Story that same year.
