Celebrity Big Brother star Chris wrote: "Congrats both of you, stunning."

Jesy started dating Chris in 2019, with the pair confirming their romance on a loved-up trip to Ireland.

At the time, Chris said Jesy was the "nicest girl" he had ever met, expressing how "happy" he was.

But after 16 months together, the couple sadly split.

Despite this they remained "good friends" and are seemingly still close to this day.

Speaking to The Sun at the time of their split, Chris said: "We’re very good friends and we enjoyed all that time together.

"I look back and I don’t look at ­anything with regret.

"We still support each other and it was just a period in life where you move on.

"But it’s nice to look back on the good memories of my relationships with Jesy and there were plenty of good times.

"There’s no reason to not like each other."

Jesy is currently dating Zion Foster, who is the father of the hitmaker's twin babies.

The pair got together for the first time at the end of 2022 but split around nine months later in August 2023.

When the couple split in 2023, Zion said on social media about Jesy: "Beautiful woman inside and out, wish her nothing but the best."

But three months later in November 2023, Jesy confirmed that the couple had rekindled their romance.
