Jesy Nelson's Odd One Out documentary breaks records 🙌
The Little Mix star is doing her bit to stamp out online trolls
Little Mix star Jesy Nelson was praised by fans across the world earlier this month, when her cyber bullying documentary Odd One Out aired on BBC, showing the horrific online abuse she's received since rising to fame on The X Factor.
After viewers called for the hour-long programme to be shown to children in schools, it's now been revealed that Odd One Out has broken a viewing record for BBC Three, drawing in a massive 3.3 million viewers in just seven days.
Jesy's documentary was also the most requested on BBC iPlayer, with 1.87 million requests mostly coming from 16-34 year-olds.
Reacting to the news on Instagram, Jesy wrote, 'So overwhelmed by the response to Odd One Out! It means the 🌎 to me ❤️'. sic
In the heartbreaking programme, Jesy broke down in tears revealing the shocking abuse she's received from trolls, even recalling the moment she tried to take her own life following Little Mix's performance on The X Factor.
After receiving a tonne of support when the documentary aired, Jesy took to her Instagram page to thank her fans for their overwhelming support, writing, 'You have no idea how hard it was to open my heart and make myself vulnerable to the world..... never did I think In a million years that it would reach this many people so quick. I’m so overwhelmed and cannot thank you enough for the love and awareness we will raise together!! ❤'. sic
Meanwhile, putting all of that past negativity behind her, Jesy is now on the 'LM5 Tour' with Jade Thirlwall, Perrie Edwards and Leigh-Anne Pinnock, performing some of Little Mix's biggest hits to their fans around Europe.
Before the girls bring their hugely-anticipated tour to the UK next week, Jesy's Love Island boyfriend Chris Hughes flew over to be with her, with the super loved-up couple sharing lots of cute snaps on social media.
Posting a photo of the pair backstage at Little Mix's show in Amsterdam last night (Wednesday 25th September), Jesy wrote, 'Just a couple of posers'. sic

Things took a SERIOUS sour turn though, when Chris dumped Jesy during a phone call!
Chris' former TOWIE co-star Myles Barnett told OK! Magazine, "He probably didn't do it as well as he could have, but he wanted to tell her as soon as possible, which meant over the phone as she was in America."
Ouch! Obviously, Jesy's fans were quick to troll Chris over his treatment of Jesy online.

Following her sour split from Chris, 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.

Since that moment, Jesy and Chris haven't been shy in expressing their love for each other, with Chris calling Jesy his 'girlfriend' during a radio interview in March 2019.
Chris gushed over his new love, saying, "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."

After Chris flew over to Europe to join Jesy on Little Mix's 'LM5 Tour', the singer posted a super cute message about her 'best friend'.

You are genuinely my best friend and i adore every single part of you I love you @chrishughesofficial and if you could come back now that would be much appreciated 🙇🏻♀️ ❤'. sic

As Jesy continued touring the UK with Little Mix, Chris attended the Pride of Britain awards in October, where he gushed about his girl.

On 17th January 2020, Jesy and Chris celebrated their one-year anniversary! The pair shared a number of cute photos with each other, with Chris calling Jesy his 'Queen'.

As the pair self-isolated at different houses during lockdown for the Coronavirus pandemic, rumours emerged that Jesy and Chris had decided to 'split', with the pair deciding their romance had just 'come to an end'.
Despite the rumours, the couple are yet to confirm or deny the apparent split, so we have our fingers crossed that they can get back on track!
2020: Sean Sagar
In July 2020, Jesy was forced to deny rumours she was dating Our Girl actor Sean Sagar. After the pair were spotted spending time together, a representative for Jesy told OK! Online, "Jesy has adamantly denied that she is dating Sean Sagar and states that they are just friends."
However, just one week later Sean got fans talking by leaving a flirty comment on Jesy's selfie.
