Jason Dewande Bell separated from his wife in 2005 and has a daughter with ex-fiance Nadine Coyle, but his current relationship status remains unconfirmed.
Born on April 1, 1978, he played as a cornerback in the NFL for teams including the Dallas Cowboys, Houston Texans, and New York Giants.
Following his NFL career, he transitioned into private wealth management, joining Masters Private Client Group as a partner.
There, he specializes in addressing the financial needs of professional athletes and entertainers.
His expertise earned him recognition as one of Business Insider’s “Top 37 Football Players on Wall Street.”
Jason Bell Has Had Notable Relationships in His Personal Life
In 2003, he married Kimberly Bell, who was a primary school teacher. However, they filed for divorce in 2005, just two years after their marriage.
Then, Bell began dating Nadine Coyle, a singer from the British girl group Girls Aloud, in 2008.
The couple were engaged in September 2010. Unfortunately, he also separated from Nadine in 2013.
However, in August 2013, Nadine announced her pregnancy, indicating that the couple reunited again.
She gave birth to their daughter, Anaíya, in early 2014.
The couple eventually split in 2019. Bell has spoken about the close bond he maintains with Nadine and their daughter, emphasizing their commitment to co-parenting despite no longer being together.
Nadine fueled speculation by posting sweet tributes on social media for Jason’s 43rd birthday, including a throwback photo adorned with heart emojis.
During the pandemic, Jason lived at Nadine’s home to co-parent Anaíya, and they were often seen enjoying family time together.
Nadine spoke to OK! Magazine about their arrangement, explaining,
“Due to COVID-19, Jason has been here for a while. We share Anaíya, so we’ve made it work to co-parent effectively.”
Reflecting on their 14-year history, Nadine praised Jason as a father and shared that they still had dinner together every night during the lockdown, enjoying a “lovely time” as a family.
However, she made it clear that their focus was on co-parenting rather than rekindling their romance, saying,
“With everything going on in the world, we’re just trying to stay in the moment and be there for Anaíya.”
In May 2022, Jason Bell was seen with his new girlfriend, Jourdan Walker. This marked the first public relationship for the former NFL player since his split from Nadine Coyle.
Jason appeared in high spirits as he left the Chiltern Firehouse in London with Jourdan after a night out.
Many people noticed that Jourdan bears a striking resemblance to Nadine.
According to a source quoted by The Sun, Jason and Jourdan met through mutual friends in the television industry and started chatting on social media.
However, there have been no recent public updates regarding their relationship status.
Both Jason and Jourdan have maintained a low profile concerning their personal lives. Therefore, the current status of their relationship remains unconfirmed.
