Jesy Nelson and Zion Foster Reportedly Split, Continue Co-Parenting

Treatment for their twins' SMA type 1 has begun, prompting a push for newborn screening.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets citing unnamed sources report the pair have separated after their September 2025 engagement, with no joint confirmation from Nelson or Foster.
  • Sources say they remain on good terms and are aligned on co-parenting, prioritizing their daughters' wellbeing.
  • The twins, born prematurely in May and now about eight months old, have SMA type 1 with serious mobility and breathing challenges.
  • Nelson has said doctors warned the girls may never walk, and she described nightly ventilatory support for Story.
  • The babies received a one-time infusion intended to slow disease progression, and Nelson is campaigning to add SMA to UK newborn screening with public backing from Foster.
