Little Mix's Jesy Nelson 'signs up to dating app' after split from Chris Hughes

Pop singer Jesy Nelson has reportedly signed up to a dating app.

The Little Mix star, 28, split from her boyfriend and Love Island star Chris Hughes earlier this year.

According to The Sun, Jesy has signed up to dating app Raya, which is an exclusive app designed for paid members and to give them privacy - making it very popular with celebrities.

It is reported that Jesy has posted a selection of gorgeous images to display on her profile in the hope of finding her Mr Right.

It is said that Jesy split from Chris while they isolated separately in their own homes during the coronavirus pandemic.

According to a source speaking to The Sun: "Jesy and Chris split up a couple of weeks ago. It was all very amicable and they're still really good friends.

"Jesy rang Chris and led the conversation about their relationship and both agreed that it felt like it had run its course - they're both absolutely fine."

Meanwhile, Chris has recently shared a clip on Instagram from Love Island where he told his friend and co-star Kem Cetinay about his desire to be married by the age of 25 or 26.

Reflecting on the clip, Chris commented with an eye-roll emoji: "Well this certainly failed didn't it @kemcetinay".

Despite breaking up with Jesy, Chris also came to the defence of her when she faced criticism from outspoken Twitter personality Katie Hopkins for some "desperate" bikini photos.

She wrote at the time: "These desperate daily pics are showing that contrivance of a documentary to be darn insincere."

Chris responded to Katie by tweeting: "How about don’t be a b**** your whole life and let that person live.

"You tried it once years back, and it affected her mentally, just don’t be that a*******. She has strength, she has beauty, and she has a heart that only you could dream of having."

Chris and Jesy had been together for 16 months before their split.

Here's hoping they both find who they are looking for soon!

Mirror Online has approached Jesy Nelson's representatives for comment.
