Jessie J has penned an emotional tribute to her baby daddy, thanking boyfriend Chanan Colman for helping her bring her son into the world and describing him as a "beam of light".
Taking to Instagram, the singer shared a behind-the-scenes photo from her birth – just days after opening up about how she had a planned C-section – which also showed Chanan comforting her during surgery.
"I struggle to keep things private. I think if you know me you know that. Lol," she wrote alongside the photo. "I want [to] protect people I love and keep it for just myself… And then so often I think fuck it because life is short but don’t want to regret it. Once you open the door you can’t close it. Bla Bla Bla… And so on and so on…"
Referencing the tragic miscarriage she experienced in 2021, Jessie went on: "But… I met this man, weeks after my miscarriage in 2021. Like a beam of light. He lit up my dark days. It was a whirlwind love and a miracle that we fell pregnant naturally with not one issue during."
She continued, "Grateful doesn’t cut it. He has given me many of the best gifts of my life."
Speaking about the birth itself, Jessie added: "He [Chanan] didn’t let go of my hand this day and I wouldn’t have been able to go through it without him. The calm to my crazy. The peace to my fear. The daddy to my baby. Thank you."

Jessie's post comes just one week after she shared details about her son's arrival, explaining that her birth plan went in a "completely different direction".
"I had a scan at a few days off of 40 weeks and he was completely the wrong way around and stuck as he was a little chunkier than your average [baby] and long," she admitted. "I did everything to try and turn him for two months but he said 'Nah mum I wanna make an entrance out the roof, not the front door'."
That's one way of putting it!
