A Love Island star has revealed she's split from her fiancé. Jessica Hayes has spoken about her breakup with former fiancé Zeb. The model took to Instagram to share a video of herself moving forward with her children after the split. Jessica had been romantically involved with Zeb since 2021, after splitting from baby daddy Dan Lawry, and the pair became engaged following a year of romance. In the caption, she wrote: "POV, starting over with your babies, trusting in the universe that everything will be okay." The video shows Jessica spending quality time with her kids, looking happy and focusing on them. She also shared a wall in her home filled with pictures of herself and her children.
Fans flooded Jessica’s comments with messages of support, with one writing: “You’ve got this!! It will turn out better than you ever imagined or hoped.” Another added: “It always works out, congratulations on your new home x.” And a third penned: “It will all be ok…even if it takes time. I ended up starting over with my kiddies last year and struggled to see how I’d get through it. A year on and although bloody difficult I’m grateful for everything that happened as it led me to where I am now. You’ve got this.”.
She welcomed her second child in May 2024, her first with property developer fiancé Zeb, after a smooth labour. She named her daughter Zendaya, affectionately nicknamed Zenny. She's been living in a blissful 'baby bubble' ever since. Already a proud mum to four-year-old Presley from a previous relationship, Jess has faced tough times too, having endured the heartache of two miscarriages. Speaking to OK! in her first chat since becoming a mum again, Jess said her birthing experience was surprisingly smooth: "It was a really smooth labour actually, I had a water birth. My partner came home from work and my water broke in the evening so we got to the hospital at about 7 pm and I had her at around 10:30 pm, it was good.".
Despite the swift delivery, Jess admitted she was anxious due to past experiences: "I was worried because when I had Presley it all happened so quickly, he was almost born in the car on the way to the hospital so I rushed this time but it was all fine. I only had gas and air during the actual labour, which didn't do anything, so it was so painful. It was worse this time than my first labour because Zenny was a lot bigger than my son Presley was, he was only 6lb 11oz and she was 8lb 4oz.".
