Little Mix star Jesy Nelson has split from her fiancé Zion Foster after four years, according to reports. The singer, who announced her engagement in September, was seen without her ring during a recent appearance on ITV This Morning.
A source confirmed the pair “remain friends” and are fully focused on co-parenting their eight-month-old twin daughters, Ocean Jade and Story Monroe. The babies were diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 1 earlier this month, a condition that may prevent them from ever walking.
Jesy appeared on ITV This Morning on 7 January to discuss her daughters’ diagnosis, visibly without her diamond ring. Fighting back tears, she said she is “grieving a life I thought I was going to have with my children” and now acts as a nurse, using breathing machines and performing tasks “no mother should have to do with their child.”
Just days before the split news, Zion posted a poem on Instagram calling Jesy a “superwoman” and advocating for NHS testing for SMA at birth. He wrote: “We are all one… Thank you to the SMA community for supporting us.”
The twins were born prematurely on 15 May last year after Jesy suffered Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome (TTTS), requiring weeks in intensive care. The couple got engaged in September 2024, with Jesy announcing on social media: “Just got engaged to my best friend.”
