Singer Says Couple Will Focus on Positive Co-Parenting for Son Sky
British singer and songwriter Jessie J has announced that she and her partner, Chanan Safir Colman, have ended their romantic relationship after five years together.
The Grammy-nominated artist, whose real name is Jessica Ellen Cornish, revealed the news on Instagram on Monday, July 20, saying the decision was made privately and with the wellbeing of their three-year-old son, Sky, as the priority.
Jessie J explained that the separation was a difficult but mutual decision and that both she and Colman are committed to creating a healthy co-parenting relationship.
Couple Remains United as Parents
In her statement, Jessie J said she chose to share the news publicly to prevent false rumours or inaccurate stories about their separation.
She emphasised that although their romantic relationship has ended, they continue to have love, respect and care for each other.
The singer said they will remain supportive friends while focusing on raising their son together.
She added that fans may still see them appearing together or sharing family moments online because they are committed to providing Sky with a positive and loving environment.
Relationship Began in 2021
Jessie J and former professional basketball player Chanan Safir Colman began dating in 2021.
The couple welcomed their son Sky in May 2023, with Jessie J previously describing motherhood as one of the most meaningful experiences of her life.
Since becoming parents, the pair have largely kept their family life private while occasionally sharing glimpses of their journey with fans.
Announcement Comes After Health Battle
The separation news comes months after Jessie J revealed that she had overcome breast cancer.
Earlier this year, the singer announced she was cancer-free after undergoing treatment, including a mastectomy following her diagnosis.
Jessie J previously opened up about the emotional impact of her diagnosis during her No Secrets Tour in New York, describing the experience as one of the most challenging moments of her life.
Despite the difficulties, she said she remained determined to continue performing and sharing her story with others.
Fans Support Singer Through New Chapter
Following the announcement, fans expressed support for Jessie J and praised both her and Colman for handling the separation with maturity and prioritising their child’s happiness.
The singer’s message highlighted their shared commitment to family, even as they move forward separately.
While their relationship has ended, Jessie J and Chanan Safir Colman appear focused on maintaining a strong partnership as parents and continuing to support their son, Sky.
