Jessie J Opens Up About Pregnancy Loss and Healing Through Music
British singer Jessie J, born Jessica Ellen Cornish, touched the hearts of her fans as she bravely shared her emotional journey of pregnancy loss on stage. The 37-year-old artist became visibly emotional as she introduced her new song, “Comes in Waves,” inspired by her own miscarriage four years ago. In a recent performance, Jessie broke down as she reflected on the pain and grief of losing her baby.
In a candid moment with the audience, Jessie shared, “Today marks four years that I lost my baby. I don’t know if anyone has gone through the same thing, but if you have, or you know someone close to you and you saw it, it’s really f**ing bad.” The singer’s raw vulnerability resonated with many as she dedicated the song to anyone in need of comfort and healing.
This isn’t the first time Jessie has opened up about her miscarriage experience. In a podcast interview, she recalled the devastating moment when doctors informed her that her baby’s heart had stopped beating. The sense of loneliness and loss that followed left Jessie feeling as though her dreams had been shattered.
Despite the pain, Jessie found strength in sharing her story with the world. In 2021, she took to social media to announce her pregnancy and subsequent miscarriage, expressing her heartbreak and determination to move forward. The singer’s message of resilience and hope struck a chord with her followers, who praised her courage in facing such a difficult experience.
Following her miscarriage, Jessie found love with basketball player Chanan Colman. The couple welcomed their first child, a baby boy named Sky, in May 2023. In a touching Instagram post, Jessie shared her overwhelming joy at becoming a mother and the profound love she felt for her newborn son.
Through her music and personal journey, Jessie J has become a beacon of strength and inspiration for those who have experienced pregnancy loss. Her willingness to share her story and channel her pain into art is a testament to the healing power of music and the resilience of the human spirit.
