Who is Jessie J's partner? Everything you need to know
Jessie J has hit headlines after she bravely went public to announce she has been diagnosed with breast cancer.
The singer took to her Instagram page to share the devastating news, telling fans the cancer is still in its early stages and confirming she will undergo surgery in the near future.
The Price Tag singer said she plans on undergoing the surgery following her performance at this month's Summertime Ball at Wembley Stadium and joked it was a 'dramatic way' to get a boob job as she attempted to put on a brave face.
Jessie J is a mum and in a long term relationship with boyfriend Chanan Safir Colman, who is understood to be supporting her through this time.
Here is all we know about him:
Born in Denmark, Colman is a now retired former professional basketball player from the Israel Basketball Premier League.
He was born in 1984 in Gladsaxe, Denmark to an Israeli mother and an American father and grew up there.
In his career he last played for Hapoel Haifa of the Israel Basketball Premier League and before this, played college basketball for Chipola College in Marianna, Florida, before going on to play for professional leagues in Finland, Denmark and now Israel.
He is close to his family and regularly posts on his own social media channels about them.
In September 2022, he shared a photo of his mum on her birthday and wrote: 'You are by far the strongest, most caring, loving and forgiving human being I know.'
Jessie J first went public with her boyfriend Chanan Safir Colman in 2023, but it is believed they were together a while before this date, around 2021 - first meeting just weeks after Jessie J first experienced a miscarriage.
She spoke about her love for Colman after the pair welcomed their first child Sky together May 2023, calling him 'the calm to my crazy,' 'the peace to my fear' and, finally, 'the Daddy to my baby.'
She shared a snap of the pair on her socials and wrote: 'I struggle to keep things private. I think if you know me, you know that. I want to protect people I love and keep it for myself.'
Sky is now two years old.
She continued, 'And then so often I think f--- it because life is short and don't want to regret it. Once you open the door, you can't close it."
She referred to her partner as a 'beam of light' that 'lit up my dark days,' adding that their relationship has been 'a whirlwind love.'
The birth announcement came after Jessie J experienced the miscarriage in November 2021.
'For all of you that have followed my journey to this moment, thank you for all your continued love and support,' she wrote following the birth of her son.
Before finding Colman, Jessie J was in a long term relationship with Hollywood actor Channing Tatum.
She dated the Magic Mike star on and off for around two years, with the pair first linked in October 2018.
They were seen together loved up, but split in December 2019 before getting back together in 2020, but broke up later on.
Before Channing, Jessie J was with fellow singer and R&B star Luke James, with the pair dating from November 2014 to October 2015.
They reportedly met through friends in the music industry and were seen together on numerous occasions during their relationship but kept their love out of the limelight.
