Zion Foster, ex-boyfriend of singer Jesy Nelson, has publicly confirmed his new relationship with a woman known as Sav, sharing a montage of their moments on Instagram. The couple has reportedly been dating in secret for months and have already gotten matching tattoos.
Foster, who split from Nelson earlier this year shortly after the announcement of their twins' Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 1 (SMA) diagnosis, took to Instagram on Monday to make the relationship official. He captioned the post: "It’s crazy how so many people are triggered seeing me happy." This follows earlier reports that Foster had found new love, with him having "soft launched" the relationship during a holiday in Portugal in August.
Sav shared a photo of her and Foster's matching tattoos, which feature a Chinese symbol that translates to the word "love." The pair have also updated their social media profile pictures to solo shots taken from the same vacation spot.
Nelson has also moved on with her relationship, with her boyfriend Ben Davies accompanying her to the National Television Awards last month. She officially "hard launched" their relationship on Instagram at the end of August, posting a photo of Davies driving a Range Rover with her hand visible.
Nelson and Foster's twins, Ocean and Story, were diagnosed with the rare muscle-wasting condition SMA in January. In a recent Amazon Prime documentary, Nelson spoke about the split, describing it as a "traumatic thing" that affected their relationship. She stated that while they still get along, they were dealing with the situation differently, leading to clashes and ultimately the decision to separate. Nelson emphasized her priority remains being the best mother possible to her children.
SMA is a condition that can impact a baby's ability to sit up, crawl, or walk, and in severe cases, breathing and swallowing. Early diagnosis and treatment can significantly improve outcomes for affected children. Nelson has expressed pride that her daughters' story has contributed to awareness and potential changes in treatment accessibility, hoping to explain this to her daughters when they are older.
