Back in September, it was reported that she and Zion broke up, with him taking to social media to confirm the breakup news. Under a video uploaded on OK!'s official account discussing the duo's romance, Zion commented: "Beautiful woman inside and out, wish her nothing but the best."
This touching tribute to Jesy prompted reactions from followers, with one sharing: "I've been crying all day since I heard this shocking news." Another chimed in: "Aww sad looked like a lovely couple." One particularly disappointed fan wrote: "Noooooo, I was so excited for their tunes."
Their brief breakup came after the pair's collaboration on duets, one of which they had teased to their admirers during the summer last year. Speculation about their relationship status had been rife among fans on social media platforms. However, it looks like they managed to patch things up and are looking forward to starting a family together.
The pair became an item in late 2022, united by their mutual passion for music but called time on their nine-month romance in August 2023.
