Jesy Nelson is said to be horrified by her flirtation with hunky actor Lucien Laviscount – who is her former Little Mix bandmate Leigh-Anne Pinnock’s ex.
Jesy was photographed cosying up to Lucien on Saturday night. She cuddled up to him on a cold rickshaw ride through London and seemed to go in for a kiss after downing drinks together in Soho and Mayfair.
Fans were delighted for Jesy, but it seems that romance may not actually be on the cards. Friends have stressed that she is ‘still single’ – and is mortified by the weekend’s events.
This has been made worse because former Waterloo Road and Coronation Street actor Lucien previously dated Jesy’s former bandmate Leigh-Anne Pinnock in 2012.
A source told Mail Online: “Jesy and Lucien met up on a night out after two friendship groups came together and took a rickshaw to the club but left separately.
“She was letting her hair down on a Saturday night and is embarrassed her flirtation with Lucien has come to light – but there is nothing more between them.”
It’s believed that Jesy and Lucien also dined together at restaurant Yatay in London’s Soho before continuing their evening at Tabu nightclub.
In the rickshaw photographs, Jesy attempted to embrace Lucien as the pair cosied up together for an intimate chat.
A source also told The Sun: “Jesy is single. She and Lucien were at separate clubs on different nights out, but shared a rickshaw ride across London.
“They weren’t kissing and now Jesy’s seen the photos, she’s absolutely mortified. They’re not boyfriend and girlfriend – they just ran into each other on a night out.”
It is understood that Jesy went back to her Essex home alone and herself and Lucien – who stars in the upcoming second season of Emily In Paris – have no plans to meet up in the future.
Jesy recently split from on-off boyfriend Harry James, who directed the music video for her debut solo single Boyz.
The couple got together in 2017, splitting after 16 months but rekindled their romance in September. They parted a month after enjoying a luxury holiday in Antigua.
