Following her split from Love Island star Chris Hughes during the height of lockdown, rumours have been swirling that Little Mix beauty Jesy Nelson is dating Our Girl actor Sean Sagar!

Despite Jesy saying the pair were just 'friends' back in June, fans were left talking once again after Sean's comment on Jesy's picture, and then they were spotted out together on a stay-cation in Cornwall.

As if this wasn't enough evidence, Jesy has now added more fuel to the dating rumours, leaving a VERY flirty comment on Sean's recent upload.

Sean, who played the role of Monk in Our Girl before the show was recently axed, shared a snap of himself looking very handsome to Instagram, writing the caption, 'It’s been a while 🙌🏾'. (sic)

'Break Up Song' singer Jesy made it no secret how excited she was about the upload, publicly commenting, 'Here he is 😍'.

As well as her cheeky comment attracting hundreds of likes, many fans were quick to reply. One user wrote, '@jesynelson cutest thing i’ve seen you say🥰', with another asking, '@jesynelson thought u two were just friends 👀'. (sic)

A third then wrote, '@jesynelson Gowan girl😉'. (sic)

You could say Jesy is repaying the compliment to Sean after the actor wrote 'Riggghhhttttt 🔥' on one of her stunning selfies last month.

Check out Jesy Nelson's entire relationship history below:

2012-2014: Jordan Banjo

If you rewind your minds back to 2012, just as Little Mix were emerging off the back of their X Factor win, Jesy started dating Diversity dancer Jordan Banjo. The pair are rumoured to have split because of their conflicting schedules.

2014-2016: Jake Roche

In 2014, Jesy started dating Jake Roche, son of Loose Women/The Nolans star, Coleen Nolan and Eastenders legend, Shane Richie. Jake was also the frontman of pop band, Rixton.
Jake popped the question to Jesy backstage at a gig, and he even enlisted the help of Ed Sheeran to perform one of Jesy's favourite songs in the moment.
Despite the epic proposal, Jesy and Jake didn't actually make it down the aisle, with the pair announcing their split in 2016.

2017: Chris Clark

Following a number of whispers that Jesy was dating TOWIE star Chris Clark in 2017, the Little Mix singer confirmed the news in the March.
The pair attended a number of events together and gushed about each other on their social media accounts for a number of months, before calling it quits later the same year.

2017-2018: Harry James

Jesy started dating musician Harry James in the summer of 2017, with the pair being spotted for the first time together on holiday in Mykonos.
Harry accompanied Jesy to the 2018 BRIT Awards where she was performing with Little Mix.
Their romance continued to blossom throughout 2018, with Jesy and Harry posting snaps on social media, and gushing about each other at every given opportunity.
After 16 months of dating, Jesy and Harry's relationship came to an end in November 2018.

2019: Chris Hughes

After weeks of rumours that Jesy was dating Love Island 2017 star Chris Hughes, the pair confirmed their romance during a trip to Ireland, posting this cosy snap to their socials.
Although the pair briefly split after just three weeks of dating, they quickly rekindled their romance.

2019: Chris Hughes

After going official, Jesy and Chris weren't shy in expressing their love for each other, with Chris calling Jesy his 'girlfriend' during a radio interview in March 2019.
Chris said: "I'm the happiest I've ever been. It's official, she's my girlfriend. I'm so happy, she's the nicest girl I've ever met, this is no exaggeration, she's got a heart like she was your mother or something. She's so caring. We just get on like best mates, and that's the beauty about it."

January 2020: Chris Hughes

Chris appeared in Jesy's NTA-winning documentary Odd One Out, supporting his then-girlfriend and also opening up about how it affected their relationship. There was a lovely moment where he explained that he'd often go into the kitchen and pretend to make a brew, only to use the time instead to look at a photo of Jesy without makeup on which is on the fridge.


Following the documentary's air date, Chris welled up in an interview on This Morning, explaining how he'd struggled to cope with the trolling that Jesy had received.


Chris accompanied Jesy to the National Television Awards, where she won the Best Factual Entertainment Award for Odd One Out, thanking Chris in her acceptance speech.

2020: Chris Hughes

As the pair self-isolated at different houses during lockdown for the Coronavirus pandemic, rumours emerged that Jesy and Chris had decided to 'split'. Chris later confirmed the news, but announced the pair were still good friends.

2022: Zion Foster

In 2022, Jesy started dating rapper Zion Foster. Despite a brief split in 2024, the pair seemed to be the perfect match, even releasing a song together, entitled 'Mine' in August that year. The lyrics, which likely allude to the beginnings of their relationship, include: 'I walked in the room, yeah, tipsy off that juice / And I noticed you, I didn't have a clue / That I'd be leavin' here with you, you won't let them other dudes / That's why I'm so into you, that's why I'm so into you, mm.'

2025: Jesy and Zion announce pregnancy

In January 2025, Jesy announced the happy news that her and Zion were expecting twins! Sharing her excitement with her followers with a sweet pic of her eating from a bowl, Jesy wrote the caption: 'She's eating for 3 now 👶👶'.


Fans were quick to flood the comments with their congratulations, with ex-boyfriend Chris Hughes even writing: 'Go on girl 🤍👶🏻'.

March 2025: Jesy and Zion update fans on pregnancy

After informing fans that Jesy would have to undergo a procedure in March 2025 after their babies were diagnosed with a rare condition called Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome (TTTS), Jesy and Zion kept fans updated with a series of videos on Instagram. Jesy said: 'We are still in hospital. I've been recovering but we have some amazing news. The TTTS has cleared up, the operation was a success which is just absolutely incredible. We're so, so lucky to have the most amazing doctors.
'I can't leave the hospital as my waters could break at any point and I'm still very early. So I can't leave the hospital until I'm a certain amount of weeks. We're just so grateful that they're still here and they're still going strong.'

May 2025: Jesy and Zion become parents

In May 2025, Jesy and Zion welcomed their twin daughters, Ocean and Story in to the world. They wrote on social media: 'So… Our beautiful baby girls decided to come at 31 weeks plus 5 days. It all happened so quickly, but we are so blessed that they are here with us, healthy and fighting strong! We've never felt more in love 🥹 Everybody meet Ocean Jade Nelson-Foster and Story Monroe Nelson-Foster. Born on 15.05.2025 🌊📖.'

September 2025: Jesy and Zion get engaged

In September 2025, Jesy and Zion announced their engagement, taking to Instagram to share a gorgeous pic of them on the beach at sunset, flashing a sparkly ring. 'Jesy wrote: Just got engaged to my best friend 🥹💍'. Awwww!

Although all of the signs look like things are heating up between Jesy and Sean, neither of them are yet to officially confirm they are dating, but we do think they make a lovely couple!

Meanwhile, after the release of their latest single 'Holiday' last month, Jesy and the rest of the Little Mix girls, Perrie Edwards, Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Jade Thirlwall are gearing up for their 'UNCancelled' show in partnership with Meerkat Music.

The special one-off gig will take place at Knebworth House, with fans able to stream the show live on Friday 21st August at 8pm.
