Jesy Nelson appeals for help after car with medical equipment for daughters is stolen

Jesy Nelson has issued an urgent appeal after her car, containing vital medical equipment for her twin daughters, was stolen from her home.

The former Little Mix singer revealed that her black Range Rover Defender was taken from her driveway in Brentwood at around 3:00 a.m. on Sunday.

Nelson, 34, shared the news on Instagram, asking the public for help in locating the vehicle and offering a £10,000 reward for information leading to its recovery. She wrote: “My car got stolen off my driveway in the early hours of this morning… Please, if any of you have seen or know of any information can you DM me or contact the police.”

She added that the situation is especially distressing because the vehicle contained essential hospital equipment for her daughters, saying: “I have so much of my girls’ hospital equipment in that car that’s really needed.”

Nelson’s twin daughters, Ocean Jade and Story Monroe Nelson, have been diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), a condition that causes progressive muscle weakness and requires ongoing medical care.

The incident comes shortly after Nelson publicly celebrated progress in SMA awareness and healthcare. Earlier this year, she said she was “proud” to see newborn screening for the condition set to roll out across the UK from October 2026, following her own advocacy efforts.

After her daughters’ diagnoses, Nelson launched a petition calling for SMA to be included in routine newborn blood spot screening. The campaign gained significant traction, surpassing 100,000 signatures and drawing national attention.

Nelson first rose to fame on The X Factor in 2011 as a member of Little Mix, one of the show’s most successful acts.

Essex Police said it was unable to comment on the reported theft.

The singer’s appeal has since gained traction online, with fans sharing her message in hopes of recovering the car and the critical medical equipment inside.
