Jessie J has shared a smiling photograph of herself, her first selfie in weeks after suffering a miscarriage.
The singer, 33, recently shared the heartbreaking news of her loss with her fans, in a post featuring a photo of herself holding a positive pregnancy test.
She had kept the pregnancy private but shared her story ahead of a gig in LA, as she didn’t know how she would ‘get through the show without breaking down’.
Jessie has since been met with an outpouring of love from fans, friends and fellow celebrities, and has previously thanked everyone for their support.
Now the Price Tag star has shared a smiling selfie in an update with her followers on Instagram.
She said the photo was the ‘first picture I’ve taken of myself in weeks’.
‘Honouring all my heavy emotions but holding on tightly to hope, happiness and joy the most,’ she wrote.
The picture shows a gorgeous Jessie sitting in a sun-flooded vehicle with a smile on her face.
Thousands took to the comment section to share supportive messages, including presenter Fearne Cotton, who offered a series of praying emoijs, and singer Jade Novah, who called Jessie ‘beautiful’.
The musician has been surrounding herself with loved ones as she processes what she went through and was recently seen out for dinner with friends in Los Angeles.
She also shared a message on her Instagram stories thanking fans for their ‘overwhelming’ and ‘instant outpour of love’.

Jessie said the messages were ‘felt, received and appreciated beyond measure’.
The musician was previously told she would struggle to conceive children and shared that news with fans at her Royal Albert Hall show in London in 2018.

However, she was always determined to become a mother regardless of her relationship status.
Jessie only recently split from boyfriend Max Pham Nguyen after seven months of dating, and she was previously in a two-year relationship with actor Channing Tatum until last year.
