Jesy Nelson has announced she is expecting twins with her ex-boyfriend Zion Foster after she took to Instagram on Sunday to share a snap of her growing baby bump

The pair were reported to have split in September, however in the loved up snap Zion posed with his hand on the singer's tummy as she wrote she is 'eating for three' now.

So who is the Little Mix star's musician boyfriend?

Originally from South London, Zion, 26, was born and raised in a Nigerian household by his mother and grew up listening to Gospel music. 

It was his football coach who then introduced the star to rap influences as he began listening to Chris Brown, Lil Wayne and Usher. 

Zion then decided to pursue music as he began recording his own music and sharing it online via SoundCloud.

His hit Get This Girl amassed over 250,000 streams on the platform in 2015 and the musician now has over 429,000 listeners on Spotify. 

Zion also boasts over 205,000 Instagram followers, and in an interview with New Wave Mag six years ago he explained he always wants to empower his fans to strive for more. 

He told the publication: 'For me it's everything! The worst thing someone can do with their life is spending it doing something they don't want to do - life isn't long! 

'A lot of us get caught under the illusion of things that don't matter. 

'I just want people to understand that no matter if your rich, poor, or you look like the richest man in the world, or you look like the poorest man in the world, or you eat Hakkasan or McDonald's - we all go into the same ground and we all die. So we need to make the most of it!'

Prior to Sunday's announcement, Jesy and the rapper had dated for approximately 18 months before calling it off in November 2023.

The couple soon reunited before breaking up again five months ago - however they hinted at another reunion as they shared a cosy snap announcing their pregnancy. 

Jesy and Zion previously split last summer after Jesy struggled with their seven year age gap.

However they got back together and the pair recently collaborated on tracks together with one being unveiled in August and the others yet to be released. 

Following reports of their separation, Zion confirmed they had split as he commented on a OK! TikTok post: 'Beautiful woman inside and out, wish her nothing but the best'. 

Fans were saddened by the news. They wrote: 'Aww sad looked like a lovely couple' and 'No I was so excited for their tunes'.

'She deserves to be treated like the gorgeous person that she is' and ''Omg I'm shocked. They seemed so good together.' 

When their split was reported, a source told The Sun: 'Jesy and Zion split last month and have completely cut ties with each other. It's not the first time they have broken up but friends think it's for good this time.

'It's slightly awkward though because they had an EP ready of music they have made together and Jesy doesn't want it released now. 

Jesy confirmed she was back on with boyfriend Zion in November 2023 after they previously split three months prior after nine months of dating.

The pair were first pictured together back in January 2023, after it was reported in 2022 they'd grown close.
