JESY NELSON SHARES POWERFUL UNDERWEAR PHOTO OF POSTPARTUM BODY AFTER TWINS AS SHE ADMITS CONSIDERING SURGERY

Former Little Mix singer, Jesy Nelson, has shared two powerful underwear photos to celebrate her postpartum body, after giving birth to twins back in May – and her 9.7 million followers have nothing but praise in response.

In the past, Jesy has spoken honestly about how trolling related to her appearance severely impacted her mental health and lead to unhealthy, disordered eating habits, which at one point resulted in hospitalisation.

"I could see that I was losing weight and sometimes I'd see a few good comments and that spiralled me to be like: 'This is how I need to stay'," she said during a 2019 interview. "No one cares whether your performance was good, or if you sounded great." This pressure from the public, Jesy added, contributed to her ultimately leaving the band after a suicide attempt.

Now, she's detailed how pregnancy has helped her to feel more appreciative of her body and bring her back to a healthy headspace, after previously considering a boob job.

Jesy and her partner, Zion Foster, a rapper, welcomed Ocean Jade and Story Monroe prematurely at 31 weeks and 5 days, and told fans that the twins needed to spend time in the neonatal unit before being able to safely return home.

"I never thought it would have taken having two beautiful baby girls, that I could have potentially lost, to make me realise how incredible my body actually is," Jesy wrote in her new post. "33 years of extreme diets, 33 years of putting myself down wishing my belly was flatter, wanting my waist just a little smaller and almost going through with a boob job, to now standing here having this photo taken."

She added that she's "never felt prouder of [her] body and what it has been through! Yes my boobs hang lower and my belly is bigger and squishier – it doesn't look how it used to, but my God, it created the best gift that has ever happened to me".

Jesy continued on to say that her pregnancy has also made her realise she never wants her children to feel badly about their own bodies as they grow up. "So to all the future mummies or the mummies that have just given birth, if you're struggling with how you are feeling in yourself, or are maybe even feeling the pressure to 'snap back' just take a moment to remember what YOU did! Be kinder to yourself and remember you are INCREDIBLE!!!"

In response, fellow singer Jessie J (who had a baby boy named Sky in May 2023), praised Jesy for her candour and wrote, "This is the energy for life. YOU are beautiful 🫀🔋"

Feminist campaigner and ex-Made In Chelsea star, Ashley James, also said Jesy's words struck a chord: "I felt the same. You are perfection ❤️👏"

Radio host, Sian Welby, also dropped by the comments, to say, "The second photo omg. I can hear the joy. This post is everything ❤️"

Huge respect to Jesy for continuing to speak her truth and lift up others along the way.
