Pregnant Jesy Nelson reveals update

On Saturday (March 8) Jesy took to her Instagram where she told fans she was going to have to undergo surgery.

“I’ve been feeling a bit poorly the past few days, been having a few symptoms that I need to watch out for which is like my belly tightening, struggle breathing. So today we came into the hospital to have a check up basically, just in case,” Jesy said.

The Little Mix star went on: “Unfortunately, the symptoms have got worse so they now have to perform the procedure, which is obviously not what we wanted to happen.”

Jesy then broke down in tears, as Zion stepped in to comfort her. She continued: “But it’s necessary because it’s going to give our babies the best chance of surviving.

“So we’re just waiting to go in and we’re just hoping and praying for the best really. I feel absolutely gutted because I was really hoping we wouldn’t be in this position.

“It’s obviously really scary because there’s so many things that can happen. Pray for us, please.”
