New mum Jesy Nelson's courageous twins will be shown for the first time in a new six-part documentary chronicling her pregnancy and what she describes as a "new chapter in her life".
Fans will gain an intimate insight into the highs and lows of Jesy's challenging pregnancy and will be introduced to the twins - named Ocean Jade and Story Monroe Nelson-Foster, in a Prime series.
The streaming giants have officially announced the project with Jesy, who shared a photo on social media. The birth of the twins was a relief for Jesy and her partner Zion Foster after a difficult pregnancy with complications.
Jesy said: "I feel so excited and proud that we can finally reveal we have been filming our own series for Amazon! We met with the creative director Demi doyle and Producer Gavin Evans at Navybee and letting the cameras in wasn't an easy decision for us as it's such a deeply personal time but I knew I wanted to tell my story in my own words.
"We opened the doors fully and I'm really looking forward to letting you all in as I navigate my way to becoming a first time mum to our beautiful baby girls Ocean and Story. I'll be honest, it's not been easy as it's been such a high risk pregnancy, so you'll see all the highs and lows and rollercoaster of emotions we have been going through. I hope you will all join me on this journey as I really open up and say goodbye to the past and enter this new chapter in my life. I hope you love it as much as we do."
Prime have announced that she will "share her truth like never before", promising a series that documents "weekly hospital visits and candid conversations" alongside the unwavering support from her family, reports the Mirror.
The documentary isn't solely focused on motherhood; it also delves into her battles with fame as she discusses her momentous choice to leave Little Mix in 2020. It reveals her struggles with mental health issues, experience of fame and the controversies that follows.
The series then follows Jesy as she begins a new chapter with her partner Zion and their twins. For the latest TV and showbiz gossip sign up to our newsletter

Jesy Nelson and her partner Zion have spent the past two months living in a London hospital as they awaited the birth of their twins.
With a plan to induce labour at 32 weeks, the babies ultimately arrived slightly earlier than anticipated at 31 weeks and five days, as shared by Jesy on her Instagram.
Her message added: "It all happened so quickly, but we are so blessed that they are here with us, healthy and fighting strong. We've never felt more in love."
In April, Jesy underwent an urgent surgical procedure, following the diagnosis of twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome - a potentially life-threatening condition for one or both of the twins. Thankfully, the surgery was successful, but it led to a continued hospital stay for Jesy and Zion until the safe arrival of their children.
Close to the twins' birth, Zion spoke to the Mirror, saying: "We're so grateful because Jesy and the twins have come through so much. There were so many times in this pregnancy we didn't think we'd get to where we are now."
The Prime documentary team were filming with Jesy in the hospital during her pregnancy, capturing emotional scenes as she and Zion discuss on camera how close they came to losing their babies.

The documentary will also celebrate the couple's journey into parenthood, with filming set to resume shortly to document their first steps as parents with the twins.
Demi Doyle, Creative Director and Executive Producer at Navybee, said: "From the moment we met Jesy she has welcomed us into her world with so much honesty and heart. Letting the cameras in during such a vulnerable and life-changing time wasn't an easy decision but she chose to open up in the most brave and beautiful way.
"With her incredible partner Zion by her side, we've followed every raw emotion, every high and low, and the deeply personal moments that have shaped this new chapter of her life. This is more than just a journey to motherhood, it's a powerful, emotional step forward, and a chance for Jesy to finally tell her story. Letting us share this journey is something truly special, and we feel so privileged to be part of."
Hannah Blyth from Prime Video UK said: "We are delighted to be working with the talented Demi Doyle and the fantastic team at Navybee to bring Jesy Nelson: Life After Little Mix to Prime Video. The series will offer an intimate look at Jesy's journey - a powerful account that's never been told before - and we are extremely grateful to Jesy for opening up her life to the cameras during such a pivotal and impactful year for her, as she embraces new motherhood and reflects on her experiences beyond the headlines.
