Little Mix songstress Jesy Nelson has fuelled Sean Sagar romance rumours as the pair were spotted getting cosy.
Jesy, 29, was seen looking very happy with Our Girl actor Sean, as he put his hand on her waist as they greeted each other.
It’s claimed Jesy’s ex-boyfriend, Love Island star Chris Hughes, is said to be ‘gutted’ that Jesy has reportedly moved on after their 16-month romance ended back in April.
The pictures of Jesy and Sean were taken at Roof East bar in London’s Stratford district late last month.
It’s claimed the pair were seen chatting before joining a pal at a table.

Talking about their outing, an insider told The Sun: “They seemed pretty loved up. They were hugging as they waited to go in and he had his arm around her and kissed her on the top of the head.
“They didn’t seem to be hiding it from anyone and looked like any new couple on a date.”
A separate source also claimed Chris, 27, is upset about their bond, telling the publication: “Chris was really in love with Jesy and wanted it to work.

“He thought they were going to be together forever, so seeing pictures of her with Sean’s arms on her bare skin, looking warm and relaxed, was a hard pill to swallow. He’s gutted.
“He’s aware that Sean and Jesy became more friendly and started hanging out soon after they split.”
The insider added that Chris had taken their breakup hard and said lockdown had made things ‘doubly tough’.

However, they said that the reality TV star has a good network of friends to support him.
Despite the claims, Chris recently told Vicky Pattinson on her podcast The Secret To, it only took him “a couple of weeks” to adjust to the single life again.
He said: “You can actually focus on yourself, which is always a good thing.”
“For me as well, I had a break up! So I needed a bit of focusing on my own stuff. It happened right at the start.”

Daily Star Online has contacted Jesy, Sean and Chris’ representatives for further comment.
Jesy’s representative insisted to MailOnline in a statement last month that she’s ‘just friends’ with Sean after he was pictured leaving her home in Essex.
They said: “Jesy has adamantly denied that she is dating Sean Sagar, and states that they are just friends.”
Sean is known for playing Private Jaiden ‘Monk’ Montgomery in BBC series Our Girl opposite Michelle Keegan.
He has also appeared in the Guy Ritchie film The Gentlemen.
