Jesy Nelson has publicly confirmed her relationship with boyfriend Ben Davies, marking the occasion with a series of photos on Instagram.
The former Little Mix member, 35, "hard launched" her relationship with Davies on Thursday, sharing images from a recent date night at the National Television Awards (NTAs). Nelson had attended the ceremony solo earlier in the week, but Davies was later seen seated beside her.
In her Instagram post, Nelson captioned the photos "Forgot to mention…" alongside a speak-no-evil monkey emoji and a black heart, suggesting the relationship was previously kept private. She wore a black strapless dress with long gloves and a thigh-high split, while Davies was dressed in a black vest, blazer, and trousers.
Nelson's post has drawn positive reactions from fans, who have expressed their happiness for the singer following her split from ex-partner Zion Foster earlier in the year. Davies was seen looking at Nelson with pride during the NTAs as her authored documentary, "Jesy Nelson: Life After Little Mix," was nominated in the Authored Documentary category, although the award was given to "Our Girls: The Southport Families."
This public confirmation follows an earlier social media post at the end of August where Nelson shared the first photo of Davies, though he was not fully visible in the snap. In that image, Davies was pictured driving a Range Rover while holding her hand.
Earlier in September, reports detailed an incident where Nelson and Davies were reportedly asked to leave a bar in London. According to reports, the altercation occurred at Madison bar in St Paul's after Davies was seen interacting with other patrons. An insider claimed Nelson attempted to de-escalate the situation. The pair had reportedly visited My Old Dutch Pancake House before the bar incident.
Nelson's relationship news comes as she continues to campaign for greater awareness of Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) Type 1, a rare genetic condition diagnosed in her 16-month-old twins, Ocean and Story. The singer's recent documentary highlighted her personal journey and advocacy efforts, including persuading the government to announce a national rollout for newborn screening for SMA. Nelson has spoken about how her daughters' diagnosis and the subsequent split from Zion Foster have been a challenging period, emphasizing her priority to provide a positive environment for her children.
