Jesy Nelson: Glamorous Selfie Amidst Twin's Health Battle

Jesy Nelson recently showcased a glamorous side, posting a selfie after a makeup session, a moment of levity amidst her challenging journey as a mother to twins Ocean and Story. The eight-month-old infants were diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) Type 1, a rare genetic condition causing muscle weakness.

Following this diagnosis, Nelson has become a vocal advocate for introducing SMA testing for newborns. She believes early detection and treatment are crucial for reducing the long-term impact of the disease. Her efforts include launching a petition to add SMA screening to the newborn blood spot test.

Nelson's personal experiences, from navigating pregnancy complications like Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome to becoming a mother, are documented in her forthcoming Amazon documentary, 'Jesy Nelson: Life After Little Mix,' scheduled for release on February 13, 2026.

The documentary trailer revealed emotional moments, including Nelson reflecting on her departure from Little Mix due to the severe impact of online trolling on her mental health. She expressed that she 'always stayed quiet' because she was the one who chose to leave the band.

Despite recent reports of a split from her fiancé, Zion Foster, a source indicated they remain united as co-parents, prioritizing their daughters' well-being. Foster himself shared on Instagram that their past year and a half has been a 'rollercoaster' filled with 'traumatic moments,' praying for 'clarity, peace and growth' for their family.
