Little Mix star Jesy Nelson has issued an update with her fans from hospital as she awaits the arrival of her twins following her emergency surgery back in March
Jesy Nelson has provided fans with an update as she remains in hospital before the birth of her twins. The former Little Mix singer, 32, has been receiving constant medical care after having emergency surgery earlier this year. She has been supported by partner musician Zion Foster, 26, throughout her worrying time in hospital. Jesy was rushed in after it was discovered her twins were at risk of a condition called twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome.
If untreated, the condition can cause issues for the unborn twins – including growth problems, organ failure, and even death. Still hospital-bound, Jesy has been providing update to her concerned fans. Over the weekend, she was able to watch her boyfriend Zion run the London Marathon on TV as he ran to raise awareness about the condition.
Jesy has since shared another update from her hospital room as she adapts to life there. She remained determined to keep her spirits high as she was treated to a beauty session.
The pop star appeared upbeat and grateful for a bit of pampering as she revealed her eyelash extensions. “So the lovely @glashesbyhols came and did my lashes yesterday and I can honestly say I’m obsessed,” she told fans.
“She put brown lashes on me, which I’ve never had before, and switched up my shape a little — and I absolutely love them. Don’t think I’ll be going back to black now!”
Following surgery in March, the couple took to Instagram to share information. Jesy said: “Hi guys, so we just wanted to give you an update because we know it’s been a while.
“First of all we want to say a Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing and strong mums out there. And secondly, we are still in hospital, so 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 are so, so, lucky to have the most amazing doctors.
“Basically, the situation that we’re in now is my cervix is very, very, short, so I can’t leave the hospital because my waters could break at any point and I’m still very, very, early.”
Jesy went on: “So yeah, I can’t leave the hospital until I’m a certain amount of weeks. Every week we’re praying that the babies stay in my belly but yeah, we are just so grateful that they are still here and they’re still growing strong and we’re just so grateful.”
Her other half Zion then added: “We’re in such a blessed, blessed, situation to even be able to make this video and share this good news.”
Zion also told the Mirror that Jesy is “ticking off milestones every week” until they can become proud parents. Speaking ahead of running the London Marathon, he said: “They’re just giving us so much hope they’re going to come out healthy and spend the least time in the neonatal unit as possible.
“We’re so grateful because Jesy and the twins have come through so much. There were so many times in this pregnancy we didn’t think we’d get to where we are now.”
Jesy and Zion announced her twin pregnancy in January to fans on social media. He added: “I do think we’ve come out of the storm a little bit. I mean, look, the truth is she’s still premature.
“So the reality is there is still that sense we need them to keep staying in. But from where we’ve come, we just feel so grateful. We just keep ticking off day by day and hopefully just let them go as long as they can.”
