  1. This video got me 😭 happy birthday to the twins! Jesy’s caption: “I cannot believe it has been a whole year since having my beautiful baby girls. They have been through so much. There will never be enough words to describe just how incredible they actually are. My tiny little super humans. The strongest, most resilient little fighters I've ever known. You inspire me and every single person that ever meets you both. One whole year old today what a mile stone to reach. I read this poem a little while ago by Emily Perl Kingsley "welcome to Holland" and I think this sums up their journey so beautifully. Happy Birthday my Ocean and Story you are my whole heart and soul I love you more than you will ever know Adapted from "Welcome to Holland" by Emily Perl Kingsley. Original work by Emily Perl Kingsley.“
  2. 'HISTORIC' WIN Hundreds of children like Jesy Nelson’s to benefit from ‘life-changing’ drug for muscle-wasting condition MEDICINES for babies with spinal muscular atrophy will be funded by the NHS for all patients for the first time. Little Mix singer Jesy Nelson’s twins have the condition, also known as SMA. It is a genetic disease causing nerve damage that prevents muscles from developing properly and causes lifelong disability. NHS England said it will fund treatment for all new patients for their whole lives to help them live longer and attend school normally. It comes after scientists this week revealed 750,000 more newborns in England will get heel-prick blood tests in a trial of routine testing for the condition, following the campaign by Nelson, 34. Children diagnosed with SMA will be eligible for the drugs nusinersen or risdiplam, known as Spinraza or Evrysdi, which cost between £7,900 and £75,000 per dose. The NHS has negotiated confidential lower prices and got watchdog approval to roll them out as routine treatments. They work by increasing the amount of SMN protein in the body, which is too low in youngsters with the condition. The health service said the medications can be “life-changing” when given quickly after diagnosis. About 70 babies with the condition are born in the UK each year, meaning hundreds will benefit. Most cases are diagnosed in babies or young children and it is vital for doctors to step in early to prevent or reduce disability. Giles Lomax, chief of the charity SMA UK, said: “This is a historic moment for the SMA community. “It follows many years of determined campaigning by patients, families, clinicians and charities. “We know these treatments have helped many people maintain or improve muscle strength, respiratory health, independence and overall quality of life, while also reducing complications and care needs for some families.” Professor James Palmer, from NHS England, added: “These lifeline treatments have offered a phenomenal step forward in care for children and families affected by such a debilitating condition. “It is fantastic that they will now be available on the NHS in the long-term. “For parents who faced the unimaginable pain of thinking their child would not reach their second birthday, they now have hope of seeing them walk to school and play with their friends, thanks to these life-changing new therapies on the NHS.” Source: The Sun
  3. Oh I loved this! What a talent.

  5. Britney Spears has taken a plea deal, which sees her pleading guilty to a wet reckless, in her DUI case. Spears, 44, was sentenced to 12 months probation and one day in jail, credited as time served, by Ventura County Commissioner Matthew Nemerson. She was fined $571.00 and must see a psychologist once a week and a psychiatrist twice a month. Her vehicle is authorized to be searched for drugs and alcohol. "Through her plea today, Britney has accepted responsibility for her conduct. She has taken significant steps to implement positive change which is clearly reflected in the Ventura County District Attorney’s decision to reduce the charge in this case and dismiss the DUI," Goldstein said in a statement following the arraignment. "Britney appreciates this discretion and is also grateful for the outpouring of support she has received."
  6. This is an insanely good booking for her!
  7. The pop star was spotted Thursday being chauffeured around Westlake Village and Calabasas the day after finishing her rehab stint. We're told Britney is doing well after spending 3 weeks in rehab ... and she's happy, healthy, centered and, perhaps most importantly, clean and sober. source: TMZ
  8. Britney Spears has the chance to avoid jail time in her DUI case, according to officials. DUI prosecutors in the Ventura County District Attorney’s office filed a misdemeanor count against the pop star, 44, on Thursday, April 30, just days before she’s set to be arraigned. Officials said that Spears will likely be offered what is known as a “wet reckless,” as she does not have a prior DUI history, there was no crash or injury in her arrest, and she had a low blood alcohol level. Per standard protocol, a wet reckless allows a person to plead guilty to reckless driving involving alcohol and/or drugs and be put on probation for 12 months while receiving credit for any time spent in custody. The person is required to complete a DUI class and must pay state-mandated fines and fees. Officials said such a resolution is “common,” especially when the defendant “demonstrates self-motivation to address underlying issues through rehabilitation or a drug and alcohol treatment program.” Spears will be arraigned in court on May 4, though officials said that because it is a misdemeanor charge, she is not required to attend, and can have her attorney appear for her.

  9. Jesy’s next documentary focused on SMA will have an early premiere at Sheffield Docfest on 11 June before it hits Amazon Prime Video at a later date. The title of the upcoming documentary is TBA, the doc is believed to be a 1 hour special. Jesy will be at the Documentary festival and will have a conversation with the audience following the premiere. Official blurb on the Sheffield Docfest website: “A mother of twins diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy navigates her new reality while fighting to change UK newborn screening laws. When Jesy Nelson's twin daughters were diagnosed with SMA type 1, her whole world changed overnight. This raw and powerful documentary follows Jesy as she comes to terms with what the diagnosis means for her girls, adapts to the everyday challenges of their conditions, and finds her footing as a single mother after the break up of her relationship. But this is far more than a personal story. Jesy channels her experience into a campaign to change how the UK screens newborns for the disease. It's a portrait of motherhood, resilience and the fierce determination that comes from knowing that a simple change in the system can save lives.” Tickets are available tomorrow to the general public.

  13. Thirlwall is still in the early stages of creating new music, and while she won’t name any of her upcoming collaborators, she promises that fans will get some surprises. “I have recorded a couple of things which I'm very excited for and I've been working with a couple of new people that I think the fans wouldn't expect,” she teases. “I like the element of surprise. I like pushing and challenging myself to work with people that I don't feel as safe with.” “I'm excited for the future. I think the first record was about introducing just who I am as JADE, whereas I think the next record is about showing people why I'm here to stay.” Source: People

  15. Just saw that apparently whoever stole the vehicle discarded the hospital equipment and its been collected by Jesy / her family. They must have suddenly got some conscience! — Jesy posted that she went to Downing Street this evening. Amazing to see. Also, I’m loving seeing all of the LM stuff in the background. “She’s off to Number 10 Downing Street 🤓”
  16. she has the worst luck
