Known on the show for her curly brunette locks and vibrant fashion sense, the singer and pianist looks a far cry from her days on the show now she's in her thirties. The singer, who is still pursuing a career in music, has moved from her home town of Sheffield to London and lives with her partner Josh. Jessica boasts just over one thousand followers on Instagram, where her last post was made in 2021.
And appearing to have dipped her toe in the world of acting alongside music, Jessica's bio describes her as a 'singer/actress'. On Britain's Got Talent, she made quite the impression during the show's live semi-final as Simon Cowell had some harsh truths for her following the teen's performance. Criticising her song choice, Simon slammed her performance as "dated" and her outfit choice "silly".
Bursting into tears following the scathing comments from Simon, Jessica insisted she wasn't the one behind her song choice, but production had chosen. "I didn't choose what I wanted to sing, apparently it was somebody," she began, before her mic was cut off. She was then booted out of the competition, but didn't give up on a career in music as she auditioned for the X Factor just one year later, before being.
