Little Mix star Jesy Nelson and rumoured boyfriend Sean Sagar appear to have taken one of their first major steps as a couple as they’ve been spotted on holiday together in Cornwell.
Jesy, 29, has reportedly moved on with the Our Girl actor following her split from Love Island’s Chris Hughes in April after just over a year of dating.
The pair were first linked after spending several days together at a mutual pal’s house before heading back to her Essex home. They were later spotted looking cosy during a date in East London and Sean has publicly liked a number of Jesy’s Instagram photos.
Two fans have now shared snaps of Jesy and Sean enjoying a romantic getaway to Newquay after spotting them in the surfing town.
According to onlookers, “They seemed really relaxed and happy in each other’s company and were laughing together.
“He was very tactile and protective of her,” they added to The Sun.
