Jesy Nelson says twins being treated at Great Ormond Street in update on rare diagnosis

Jesy Nelson has revealed that her twins are being treated at Great Ormond Street following their diagnosis of Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) Type 1.

In January, the singer shared the devastating news that her daughters, Ocean Jade and Story Monroe Nelson-Foster, have been diagnosed with the rare genetic condition that may prevent them from ever walking.

In a video posted on Instagram on Friday (27 March), the twins can be seen lying next to each other in a hospital bed, whilst wearing splints on their legs.

The 34-year-old also shared a video of educational images covering the walls of the hospital. “At least when I come to great ormond street it's an educational experience."
