Jesy Nelson #7 same old same old…

[Pivot]

Just watched it. Those poor little girls, actually heartbreaking all the stuff they have been through and will continue to go through. They are such happy little souls too.

So the Zion thing was pretty much glossed over other than Jesy felt they were handling things differently. So from that I take it that Zion was struggling and she felt he was bringing the situation down. Interesting though her mum also seemed to be taking it hard(who wouldn’t be) but Jesy didn't seem to have a problem with that. There was no mention of how much he helps or when/if he has the girls. Seems like she wanted to give the impression she does it all with her mum and whatever other family help they have.

Her mum needs a medal tbh. And I can't help feel that it's not fair on her at all. Looking after one child with complex medical needs is alot but two? She seems like such a lovely woman who clearly would never say no to helping Jesy but when she said about not getting time to eat i was like wow! I know Jesy said she doesn't want help but even if not help with babies she could get a mother's help/au pair who could help round the house and maybe cook so they can actually have proper food. Her mum is almost at pension age and not getting any younger even if Jesy doesn't want to think that and if she doesn't look after herself she won't be any use to anyone.

I feel like her mother is on her way to burn out and fast. Jesy better mind her mum, she'd be screwed without her.

She also has Jesy, like Jesy is not an easy person either - like it must be so difficult being a mum to 3 people. It must be awful on her mother… she’s being selfish by not getting the help in because of her own traumas and feelings. It’s also about everyone else having respite too including the babies.

It’s going to get harder as the girls get bigger too. They’re going to need an adapted home: hoists, a wet room, ground floor bedrooms… that kind of thing.

I totally understand Jesys want to do it without hired help. In my first few years with my daughter it was only me and my husband. No childcare, nothing. I refused. I did not believe anyone could help. In hindsight, they could but you get so deep thinking you’re the only one who knows best.

She absolutely needs to consider help, she’s burning everyone to the ground if she doesn’t .

 

[KINGAA]

Just watched it, I think it was very clear Zion was struggling - I think he just needed a bit of love and support too. It must be hard to be young and delt that card.

I’d be more inclined to believe that she keeps him as far as she can cause her mums got it in hand

he’s practically a kid himself, what was she expecting?

 

[BugglyWuggly]

Was he not at their 1st birthday? It didn't show him if he was.

 

[Miss.Chanandler.Bong]

Was he not at their 1st birthday? It didn't show him if he was.

I saw a picture of him with them and a birthday cake

 

[KINGAA]

It was a huge tent you could see people at the back so could’ve been. She made it look like a small party but it wasn’t

 

[levitating]

 

[BugglyWuggly]

They had a different cake at the birthday party, much bigger. But maybe he was still there.

 

[Twinkle6]

Yeah I’m pretty sure that’s Jesys house he’s in.

I’m sure it must difficult to parent when you’re not living with the girls.

who knows, he might not be a great guy but from what we’ve seen he has a heart and he’s trying to learn. It might not be what Jesy expected but none of this is what they expected.

what we know about Jesy is she blames everyone but herself , and attempts to paint pictures of people that may not be true. I hope she’s not again.

 

[Miss.Chanandler.Bong]

Her dad was rubbish, and his wasn't around, from what he said in the first documentary. Hopefully they can put aside their differences and co-parent amicably to give their girls something different from what they had

I think Zion is young, overwhelmed at the time and like Jesy didn’t want to face reality with the adapted equipment/ reality of special needs children. Jesy slightly more mature got to grips with medication and mum is obviously acting as additional helper too or baby sitting while Jesy works through her press stuff or Instagram pages.
I can see why he left and he might eventually come back when they are older or he will be a consistent visitor to them as I think he cares but just can’t be there 24/7.
Jesy might be many things but she has managed to push the SMA test through England so well done her.
in regards to her little mix journey and previous documentary/ peri interview about it.
I don’t think the group jelled well at all, I think it was clicks and Jesy was the outsider and tried to be the clown so she would not be iced out. The hate she got was intense from the get go, no help from the industry people, minimal support from the girls (I think some at the beginning but it dwindled to not caring) abit of bravado by still wearing the outfits when she lost weight to show she didn’t care. The darker tan her choice but I think body dysmorphia like lots of the tan addicts came into play.

I think in regards to exploitation of the twins it will only be that if she does another documentary with ongoing focus on the girls as they develop a bit like Katie price did.
I hope she gets pregnant in the future at some point and can take advantage of the SMA test she helped push through

 

[Lilykins]

Just watching the docu series on prime and can’t believe she admitted to not even knowing how to do her own washing!! What a leap to having to look after and care for two poorly children!!!

 

[Tangerine Dream]

It really is true when us oldies grumble about kids being wrapped in cotton wool.

This is what it leads to

 

[GalaxyGirl70]

Her Mum has enabled her to be like this.... and it must be biting her on the a now she's got two very unwell infants on top of a demanding daughter.

 

[Going2hell]

Probably gonna be unpopular for this but just watching now and I think she is an incredibly strong woman, no doubt gets it from her mum who clearly is too. I don’t think there is a “right” way to handle the situation she is in and I think it is unreasonable that she gets hate for still doing some work/appearances/having a full face of makeup up etc - she is still allowed to be a person in her own right. Yes, she is very lucky to have the support she has but I don’t think that takes away from what she is dealing with. I have a (touch wood) healthy 18 month old and I hate to think how I would cope in her position.
I’m sure her girls will inherit her strength.
