Jesy Nelson rose to global fame with Little Mix, experiencing the highest highs and lowest lows in the public eye. But nothing could have prepared her for motherhood.
Jesy’s world changed when her twin daughters, Ocean Jade and Story Monroe, were diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 1, a rare and severe condition. Like many of us, my heart broke when I watched her video sharing the news.
For the first time on a podcast, Jesy opens up about her pregnancy, the endless hospital visits, the constant fear and the moment everything changed.
This conversation is raw, honest and incredibly powerful. Jesy, thank you for trusting us with your story. We’re sending you and your beautiful girls so much love.
Part 2 is out Friday 6th February. Jesy Nelson is Great Company.
