Little Mix singer Jesy Nelson is reportedly ‘dating’ former Love Island contestant Chris Hughes.
The 27-year-old musician, who recently split up with boyfriend Harry James, is thought to have visited Harry Potter themed bar The Cauldron with Hughes yesterday on a first date.
Hughes shared a video of the pair mixing cocktails on Instagram Stories, in which Nelson’s distinctive tattooed hands could clearly be seen.
It’s thought that the pair first struck up a conversation through direct messages on Instagram.
“It’s very early days but there’s definitely an attraction between them and they’re getting on really well,” a source told The Sun.
“Jesy is enjoying her newly single status and spending time with Chris – they had fun mixing cocktails together at The Cauldron last night – and couldn’t resist posting some pictures on both their Instagram Stories.”
The insider went on to reveal that while the pair “are taking things slowly for now,” it has the potential to “become something more serious.”
Nelson, whose group has been nominated for two Brit Awards this year, parted ways with fellow musician James in November.
Hughes was previously in a relationship with his Love Island co-star Olivia Attwood, but the couple called it quits in March 2018.
The pair split up in front of the cameras in tearful scenes filmed for their ITVBe reality show, Crackin’ On.
He has since been linked to Made in Chelsea’s Emily Blackwell and former Coronation Street star Georgia May Foote.
Standard Online has contacted representatives for Hughes and Nelson for comment.
