Chris and Jesy went public with their romance in January 2019, when they were seen enjoying a steamy date at a kebab shop, after weeks of rumors that they were a couple.
However, the couple broke up in April 2020, with inside sources revealing to MailOnline at the time that Jesy broke up with Chris over the phone amid their separate self-isolation amid the coronavirus lockdown.
Chris later revealed that the couple had broken up because they “broke up” and admitted he found the split “hard” as he described life after their split as an “ass storm.”
But the reality star added that she has no regrets about the relationship or has any bad feelings towards Jesy, revealing that they were still “very good friends”.
Speaking to New Magazine, he said: “It’s just one of those things: people break up and things happen.” Not everything is meant to last and the world would be very strange if everyone who dated someone was with them for the rest of their lives.
“I feel grateful and lucky that Jesy remains a very good friend of mine.”
While he added to The Sun: ‘We are very good friends and enjoyed all that time together. I look back and don’t look at anything with regret.
‘We still support each other and it was just a period in life of moving on. But it’s nice to remember the good memories of my relationships with Jesy and there were many good moments. There’s no reason we shouldn’t like each other.

Chris and Jesy went public with their romance in January 2019, when they were seen enjoying a steamy date at a kebab shop, after weeks of rumors that they were a couple.
And in an exclusive interview with MailOnline that same year, Chris explained that he still supports the former Little Mix star, both publicly and privately.
He said: ‘We obviously supported each other when we were together. I still support her with things, whether I do it publicly or not, I still support her anyway.’
A scene from their BBC documentary Me, My Brother and Our Balls, released after their split, showed that the couple had dreamed of starting a family and having “many babies” together before going their separate ways.
Jesy was the first person Chris called after doctors told him his sperm quality had improved after years of fearing he might have fertility problems.
And in a scene captured before the breakup of their 16-month relationship, Chris assured his ex-girlfriend that they could have “three or four babies.”
Chris said: ‘I just have to tell you the good news. It’s been a concern for both of us, so. Oh Jessica, I have a lot of sperm and they are very, very active. I’m really happy.’
Jesy replied: ‘Yes, then we can have lots of babies?’ to which Chris said, “I think we can probably have three or four.”
In April 2021, Chris opened up about his difficulties coping with the breakup, saying, “It was hard. Sometimes you just drift away. There have definitely been days where I wake up and things haven’t felt great.

However, the couple broke up in April 2020, with inside sources revealing to MailOnline at the time that Jesy broke up with Chris over the phone amid their separate self-isolation amid the coronavirus lockdown (pictured in January 2020).

Chris later revealed that the couple had broken up because they “broke up”, but insisted that he had no regrets about the relationship or had any ill feelings towards Jesy, revealing that they were still “very good friends”.

A scene from their BBC documentary Me, My Brother and Our Balls, released after their split, showed that the couple had dreamed of starting a family and having “many babies” together before going their separate ways.
‘The period 12 months ago was really tough. There were days when I would wake up and our separation was the first thing I thought about. I had to mentally force myself to break the cycle. Life was a storm.
Before dating Chris, Jesy was engaged to Coleen Nolan and Shane Richie’s son, Jake Roche, 32.
The couple first met in 2014 at the Manchester Arena during Capital FM’s Summertime Ball and enjoyed a whirlwind romance.
Less than a year later, in July 2015, Jake popped the question to Jesy on stage at Key 103 Live, while his friend Ed Sheeran serenaded them with his favorite song, Tenerife Sea.
Jake admitted at the time that it was the “best day of my life”, while Jesy gushed: “The most surreal moment of my life and everyone I love the most was there to share it with us!” I feel like the luckiest girl in the world right now literally can’t stop crying! The future Mrs. Roche.
However, the relationship did not last, and the couple called off their wedding in November 2016, following rumors that their romance had become strained due to frequent disputes.
While it was later claimed that Jesy had ended things after the couple repeatedly clashed over plans to start a family.
A source told Reveal magazine at the time that Jesy had been talking “constantly” about being a mother and trying to have a baby as soon as they married, but Jake didn’t feel ready for fatherhood.

Jesy’s pregnancy comes just five months after it was reported that she and musician Zion, 26, split in September (pictured together).

The singer and rapper were first linked in January 2022, before briefly splitting in November 2023 after Jesy struggled with their seven-year age difference (pictured together in April 2023).

The couple soon reunited, but then sparked speculation that they had split in September after they covered each other’s tracks on social media.

Following reports of their split, Zion confirmed that they had broken up while commenting on an OK! TikTok Post: ‘Beautiful woman inside and out, I wish her nothing but the best’

Following reports of their split, Zion confirmed that they had broken up while commenting on an OK! TikTok Post: ‘Beautiful woman inside and out, I wish her nothing but the best.’
The pair had been collaborating on tracks, one was unveiled in August and the others have yet to be released.
When their split was reported, a source said the sun: ‘Jesy and Zion broke up last month and completely cut ties. It is not the first time they have broken up, but the friends believe that this time it is for good.
“It’s a bit awkward because they had an EP ready with music they made together and Jesy doesn’t want it released now.
“Fans have already heard one of his songs and were hoping for more, but it seems pretty unlikely at this point.”
However, they hinted that they had rekindled their romance in the pregnancy photo, as they snuggled up together and Zion wrapped an arm around Jesy’s waist to rest on her burgeoning baby bump.
