Who is Jessie Js baby daddy Chanan Colman, who she called the calm to my crazy? The Danish-
In May 2023, British pop star Jessie J and her partner Chanan Safir Colman welcomed their baby boy into the world. While the “Price Tag” songstress has typically endeavoured to keep her personal life under wraps, that changed after the arrival of her son, Sky. Not long after the birth, the singer shared a Instagram Story from the delivery room with a poignant message of gratitude for her partner.
“I struggle to keep things private,” her caption read. “I think if you know me, you know that. I want to protect people I love and keep it for myself. And then so often I think, f*** it because life is short, and don’t want to regret it. Once you open the door, you can’t close it.” Jessie J also described Colman as a “beam of light” and “the calm to my crazy”.

What is Chanan Colman’s background?
Born in Denmark to an Israeli mother and a Jewish-American father, Colman, 40, speaks three languages. “My first language is Danish, and when I was very young, I spoke Hebrew. So in total, Danish, Hebrew and English,” he revealed in an interview with Sports Rabbi.
Despite his multilingual upbringing, Colman shared in the same interview that he faced challenges maintaining his Hebrew. After being teased in kindergarten, he gradually stopped using the language – a decision he and his mother now regret.
He’s in Israel’s Basketball Premier League
Colman’s athletic career took flight during his time at Chipola College in Marianna, Florida, setting the stage for a professional basketball career that has taken him from Finland and Denmark to Israel, where he currently plays for Hapoel Haifa BC. During his chat with Sports Rabbi, he reflected on his early days, admitting he didn’t get into basketball until his university years.
His journey in basketball was significantly influenced by his mother, despite his father being the original enthusiast in the family. “I used to play soccer but, one day, my mum said that my dad used to play basketball, so she said, let’s go and try it out. I was horrible at the beginning, especially during the first five years that I played,” he revealed.Who is Alexis Roderick, Billy Joel’s wife and baby mama who’s half his age?

Family ties are paramount for Colman – particularly his relationship with his mother, whom he considers his biggest idol and inspiration, he revealed on Instagram. In a birthday Instagram shout-out in 2022, he praised her strength and compassion: “You are by far the strongest, most caring, loving and forgiving human being I know,” he wrote.
How did Jessie J and Chanan Safir Colman meet?
Jessie J, 36, and Colman’s romance began under somewhat mysterious circumstances. In an Instagram Story, the singer revealed that they met in 2021, soon after she experienced a miscarriage.
After the birth of their son Sky, she shared on Instagram that their relationship and unexpected journey to parenthood was “a whirlwind love”, and “a miracle that we fell pregnant naturally” without any complications.
