Jessie J had previously kept her relationship with Colman private. The two sparked romance rumours after they were photographed together last year. The singer had been in an on-and-off-again relationship with Channing Tatum before they split in 2020.
Jessie J announced the birth of her child on a since-expired Instagram Story last month, according to Billboard. She shared on May 19 that she had welcomed her son a week prior.
“The feeling is indescribable,” she wrote, per Billboard. “I am flying in love. He is magic. He is all my dreams come true.”

“To get pregnant was a miracle in itself and an experience I will never forget and I know I will have again,” she wrote at the time.
