Shock moment Jesy Nelson caught up in bar row as her new man ‘gets in people’s faces’ before bouncer kicks them out

JESY Nelson was enjoying a rare night off from parenting duties this weekend when an evening out at one of London’s trendiest rooftop venues descended into a heated confrontation. The former Little Mix star, 35, had been enjoying drinks with her new boyfriend Ben Davies on Saturday night when she and her group were asked to leave – with the situation becoming increasingly tense as they faced-off with security.

An onlooker revealed Ben was “in people’s faces” and things were apparently close to getting physical. Our source said: “He was getting in people’s faces. He was about to get in a fight before all the bouncers swooped in.” But while the situation around her became increasingly “heated”, onlookers described how Jesy was actually trying to calm the situation. The drama comes just a day after The Sun exclusively revealed the first official pictures of Jesy and landscape gardener Ben Credit: Splash The loved-up pair were photographed holding hands and sharing a kiss during a day out in the capital Credit: Splash They told The Sun: “Jesy and her boyfriend were kicked out of Madison in St Paul’s. The wider group consisted of Jesy, Ben, a couple of guys and who I believe was her mum. “The whole group were being asked to leave and the situation became quite heated. They were getting very angry at the bouncer.” Video footage obtained exclusively by The Sun shows Jesy and members of the group interacting with a bouncer as they appear to discuss the situation. Our onlooker claims the men in the group became particularly vocal, while the woman who was with Jesy also became involved. They said: “The men were shouting at the bouncers and the woman was being very aggressive towards them. “There was a lot of arguing with the bouncers. It was very much coming across like a, ‘Do you know who I am?’ attitude.” But crucially, the source says Jesy herself wasn’t looking for a fight. They added: “Jesy was actually trying to de-escalate the situation.” The onlooker also claimed there was chatter among other revellers about the group during the confrontation. They said: “There was also talk around the venue that the group was giving off the impression they thought they were better than everyone else there.” The drama comes just a day after The Sun exclusively revealed the first official pictures of Jesy and her new romance with landscape gardener Ben. The loved-up pair were photographed holding hands and sharing a kiss during a day out in the capital, appearing happier than ever as they stepped out together. Before the altercation, Jesy had been enjoying an evening of respite after what has been an incredibly difficult period, with the star juggling motherhood with campaigning for children affected by a devastating genetic condition. She recently revealed her twin daughters Ocean Jade and Story Monroe had undergone a “terrifying” operation after being diagnosed with the muscle-wasting condition Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 1.

Jesy has been documenting her daughters’ health battle and has spoken openly about the emotional toll of watching them undergo treatment. Before their recent procedure, she shared a heartbreaking message with her followers as she prepared to see them without the feeding tubes they had relied on. She wrote: “Today is the last day of my baby girls having their ng (nasogastric) tubes on their faces, as terrified as I am about them having their operation tomorrow I cannot wait to finally see their faces again and see their little dimples that are always hidden under these plasters.” Jesy added: “I’ve honestly forgotten what it feels like to cuddle them and not worry about pulling their tube out of their nose or plasters off their faces. “It really is the littlest things we take for granted as parents.” The twins underwent surgery to replace their nasogastric feeding tubes with tubes that feed directly into their stomachs. Jesy has previously described the girls’ health journey as one of the hardest experiences of her life. The singer shares Ocean and Story with her former partner Zion Foster, with the pair continuing to co-parent their daughters following the end of their relationship. The former Little Mix star began dating Ben seven months after splitting from musician Zion Credit: Instagram The Sun first linked Jesy to Ben, who previously dated Towie star Lydia Bright, earlier this month Credit: Splash Zion has previously made clear that, despite their split, he remains committed to supporting Jesy and their children. In a statement, he said: “The end of a relationship does not mean the end of fatherhood.” Jesy has also used her huge public platform to campaign for better early diagnosis of SMA after seeing first-hand how devastating the condition can be. Her campaigning led to a major victory after the Government confirmed plans to introduce SMA testing for babies born in England. She celebrated the announcement by describing it as “a day of hope” and said the move could help future families avoid the devastating uncertainty her own family had experienced. It comes after Jesy and Zion allowed cameras into their lives for her Prime Video series, Jesy Nelson: Life After Little Mix, which documented their journey into parenthood and the moment they discovered their daughters had the condition. The Sun first linked Jesy to Ben, who previously dated Towie star Lydia Bright, earlier this month. The pair were spotted together at the London venue Jin Bo Law after appearing to grow close, with the singer later sharing a picture of a tattooed arm as she enjoyed drinks on a rooftop. An eyewitness who saw them together at the time said Jesy “looked like she was having a great time”, adding that it was “massively deserved after everything she’s been through”. Jesy split from Zion after welcoming their daughters, with the pair remaining devoted co-parents. Jesy’s representatives declined to comment.
