Jessie J 'growing close' to basketball star Chanan Safir Colman on private island

Jessie J has reportedly 'grown close' to basketball player Chanan Safir Colman as the pair enjoy a sunshine break on Sir Richard Branson's Necker Island in the Caribbean.

The 33-year-old singer has put her romance with Channing Tatum behind her while on holiday with the 6ft 2in Danish-Israeli basketball player.

In a photo shared on Instagram on Monday, Jessie looked very cosy with Chanan, as the pair wore matching orange outfits and the basketball star had his arm around the Price Tag singer.

Jessie has since deleted the snap but it is thought that she met Chanan at the end of last year, soon after she ended her seven month relationship with dancer Max Pham Nguyen.

Jessie dated Channing for two years from October 2018 but it would seem that she is enjoying the company of Chanan under the Caribbean sun.

A source told The Sun : “Jessie and Chanan clearly like each other and they’ve been getting to know each other for quite a few months.

"She performed at a wedding in the Caribbean at the weekend and flew Chanan out with her for a bit of a break.

“It’s not been an easy time for her after her miscarriage at the end of 2021, but she is looking on the bright side of everything.

"She feels blessed to have Chanan in her life because they get on really well.

"They are just seeing what happens but as far as her friends are concerned, things are looking good for them as a couple.”

Jessie admitted on stage recently that she was in a much better place with her life, especially as she is getting to perform live again.

In January, Jessie said: “I am probably in the happiest place I have ever been, believe it or not. My perspective on life has changed completely.”
