Chris Hughes has spoken about his split from Little Mix’s Jesy Nelson for the first time.
Chris Hughes has admitted it took him ‘a couple of week’s to get over his split from his Little Mix ex-girlfriend Jesy Nelson.
The Love Island star opened up about the break down of the relationship on Vicky Pattison’s podcast and revealed he was left ‘heartbroken’.

He said: "I don’t think I’ve ever felt heartbroken or anything.
“And then a couple of weeks down the line, you start thinking about it less and less. And the next thing, you’re good as gold."
The reality star said talking to people, including his manager, who was going through a break-up at the same time, was what helped get him through it.

He added: "It’s good to talk to people like that, you’re the same as well, life experience.
"People get it and it reflects on you and next minute you feel right as rain."
Rumours of Chris and Jesy’s split began to swirl in April. Jesy then appeared to confirm the break-up by deleting all photos of Chris from her Instagram.
