This Is How Jesy Nelson Met Her New Boyfriend Apparently And It’s VERY 2017

Talk about a modern romance!

These days, in a world of dating apps, it’s almost unusual to hear of people meeting in real life. Romances generally seem to start with a swipe right on Tinder rather than a cheeky smile from across the bar.

It seems celebs are absolutely no different, and while Jesy Nelson didn’t meet her new boyfriend Chris Clarke on a dating app, it sounds like tech absolutely lent a helping hand in getting them together.

All good things must come to an end ? See you soon babe @jesynelson

In true 2017 style, it’s been revealed that the new couple got together on Instagram, with TOWIE’s Chris sliding into Jesy’s DMs a few months prior to the couple making things official.

Chris’ castmate Courtney Green spilled the deets.

“I’m the biggest Little Mix fan. I went backstage when they were performing at V Festival and I was hyperventilating,” she told New Magazine.

“I think [Jesy and Chris] met on Instagram… I’m like: “You go, boy!” I personally think it’s such an achievement.”

Since then the couple have confirmed their relationship and have been sharing loads of social media PDAs.

Most recently Chris shared a pic of the pair smooching on a night out with the caption “Oi @jesynelson can you come home already! I’m waiting.”

Sounds like he’s only dying for her to get back from the US where she’s currently touring with the rest of the band.
