“In 2021 I lost a baby, but I never gave up hope. Ever. Not once. Hope that whatever way I became a mother would always come to me in the right time. Naturally or not. I wanted to have a baby…
“In September 2022 in an airport in Rio Brazil I found out I was pregnant. I fell pregnant in the Sky. 🪄 This song hits so different now…”
Opening up about what she feels like after becoming a mum, Jessie said she has ‘never felt more in my body and purpose as I do right now.’

Sky is blessed to have you in his life. Enjoy every minute of him. Kids grow up too fast. ❤️”
This comes after Jessie’s boyfriend Chanan shared a sweet post about her on Father’s Day.
He wrote: “Watching you feed, play with and hold our son is everything.
“When you ask me what I want for Father’s Day. The answer is simple “nothing” cause you’ve already givin me the GREATEST gift.
“Not only did you teach my heart to fall in love again when we met but you also managed to fill it up to max capacity when you brought Sky into this world.”
He added: “Love you longtime baby!”
