![Perrie admits she’s “frustrated” by how Jesy Nelson has portrayed the breakdown of her relationship with Little Mix, adding that she feels the group consistently tried supporting Jesy at the cost of their own mental health, and that accountability should be taken on all sides: “Sometimes you just won’t win with people. And what annoys me the most… I have to be careful how I say this because I don’t want to seem like a bitch… But what upsets me the most when situations like this happen is when the other person doesn’t take any accountability. That boils my blood. I’m not blaming everything on you [Jesy]. I’m not saying, ‘She’s this fucking monster and everything was her fault’ and blah blah blah. But take some accountability for your actions and realise you were difficult. You did have difficult moments. Granted, there were reasons for those moments... but you can only pick somebody up so many fucking times before you start losing track of your own sanity. You want to be there for that person, but if they can’t accept the help and they can’t accept the love you’re trying to show, how do you win? You can’t. I hate that. I don’t like putting the blame on people. Don’t put the blame on me and make me out to be something that I’m not. Yes, I’m not perfect. I might not have been there enough, or I could have done better I suppose… but I thought what I was doing was enough. I thought I’d tried everything. So to then sit there in further interviews and discuss it publicly and be like, ‘I wasn’t supported’… You were, though. You were. So just take some accountability and I’ll feel better about it. I’d say [I’m] more frustrated than angry, because I don’t like being painted into a person that I’m not. Because I’m an open book, I have to be real. It exhausts me when I see people that I know inside and out not being genuine. It frustrates me.”](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2064621907001950660/amplify_video_thumb/2064621178082263040/img/D4nch9DNXgE2jCSM.jpg)
![Asked to reflect on navigating a “hellish” public breakup, Perrie acknowledges that she receives criticism for answering questions about it, “[but] I’m like, ‘But it really affected me massively’”: “People are gonna hate me talking about it… I can’t catch a break. If I talk about this, they’re like: ‘Why are you talking about it?!’ But anyway, shut up! Yeah, [it’s my life]. When you go through heartbreak, it is hellish. You can’t eat, you can’t sleep, you feel horrendous. You don’t feel good enough and you feel like you’ve been left for something better, or whatever it is… Then what makes it even worse is, I feel like the world was then looking at me, laughing at me. I felt embarrassed; I felt horrified. I had serious breakdowns. I did. Because it wasn’t just the heartbreak I was dealing with. I was dealing with everybody looking at me, and I felt ridiculed. I just couldn’t cope with it; I hated it. I was breaking down in performances, which isn’t like me at all. I was crying constantly. I think I was depressed… I know that sounds ridiculous! But I think it was this plus this plus this, and everything on top. It was like, I had to be there for the girls; I had to be switched on; I had to power through for Little Mix – but I also just wanted to be left the fuck alone. But I also was getting followed every two seconds and asked about it 24/7, and it was the headlines, it was everywhere, and it was a lot! And this is the thing – when people are like, ‘Stop talking about it!’ I’m like, ‘But it really affected me massively’.”](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2064693618191815033/amplify_video_thumb/2064693469633769472/img/nphr9B4HX-FkVJ3i.jpg)
![JADE talks about her love of Britney Spears: “Britney is one of THE best pop artists of all time. We [Little Mix] did write a song for Britney actually [Pretty Girls]. It’s kind of iconic because people hate it so much.”](https://image.24vids.com/tw-1814309130640789603/amplify_video_thumb/1814304994419490816/img/GjroGmmFl1lUSXgD.jpg)
![JADE gets emotional reflecting on her North American tour in a new TikTok: “I’m having so much fun on this tour. I just feel so grateful that I’m getting to do this at this point in my career. The fact that I get to tour [North America] after being in the industry for 15 years, and only now just getting to do my own headline tour, is incredible. It’s been a long time coming. What’s really beautiful about these shows is that when I look into the audience, I recognise so many of the fans here from back in the day, who’ve literally waited for years – like me! – for this moment. It just makes me feel so loved and supported to know people have believed in me enough to stick around for years waiting for this to happen. Anyone that’s bought a ticket, dressed up, made their own costumes… It’s just such a lovely, beautiful thing. I hope they can see when I’m on stage just how much that means to me, and how much I love performing and putting on the best show that I possibly can every single night. I will never ever take it for granted. I’m just so chuffed that I get to do this for a living… be a silly pop girlie, write and create music that brings people – and myself – a lot of joy… Thank you for believing in me. I literally get on the bunk on my bus most nights from the tour and just lie there like, ‘Oh my god! As if this is my life!’ It means a lot. I hope I get to do this for the rest of my life… Full of gratitude and lots of all the lovely emotions. Thank you so much.”](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2026087700374159604/amplify_video_thumb/2026087566550740992/img/ZBIERxtxZtcSTSmb.jpg)

![Asked about her “toxic” relationship and “hellish” breakup with Zayn, Perrie sheds some light on what she went through but stresses there’s still “so much” she’ll never share: “I need to be careful how I say this, but… Let’s just say there was… There was a bit of an overlap. When you’re the one left behind, it’s hard. Because it’s like, ‘Shit, they’ve left me for someone more beautiful than me, someone better than me…’ That’s how it felt at the time. Then you have a song they’ve written about you, but then someone else is in the video… It was one thing after the other after the other. I remember finding out about that. I’d just moved into my little bungalow in Surrey because I was trying to get as far away as I could, and I just remember finding out about that. I thought, ‘This is all getting a bit much…’, and then I started crying my eyes out. And then my dad started crying and he was like, ‘I don’t know how I can take this pain away,’ and I’m like, ‘Nobody can! This is hellish! Like… What is going on?!” It was really one thing after the other. And there’s so much that people don’t know about that I would never say, even though I just spilled some beans. But there’s so much that went into it [and] that I went through that I would never talk about, and it was real hard. So that’s probably why I get a bit frustrated at times [when people tell her not to talk about her experience].”](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2064703881255235832/amplify_video_thumb/2064703751747682304/img/fmGsmzqB886qw-9q.jpg)

![When asked if she thinks she’ll ever rekindle her friendship with Jesy, Perrie says she’ll “always love her” but no longer wants to reconcile after feeling hurt by her documentary: “If I’m being completely transparent, part of me wanted to… until her documentary. Then part of me withdrew again. This is the thing: I’m not a horrible person, I haven’t got a [malicious] bone in my body, but I can cut you off. [Laughs] If you upset me and hurt me in a way [where] there’s not really any going back, I can forgive, but I don’t want you in my space. This is what I’m learning in therapy: there’s capability and there’s capacity. I only have a certain amount that I can cram in – I have my career, my relationship, my friends, things going on… personal things, public things, everything. I don’t have the capacity for somebody like that in my life anymore. That might make me sound like a bitch, but I just don’t have the energy for it. As much as I will always love her, I don’t think I can hack that energy in my space. You can’t fix people. They’re set in their ways – and clearly they don’t think there’s anything wrong with [those ways] – so you think, ‘Okay! You do you and I’ll do me and that’s that.’”](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2064647958751068270/amplify_video_thumb/2064647230745677824/img/6rdThuJIgieQw8Pu.jpg)

Leigh-Anne opens up about wishing Little Mix’s team pushed them in America: “We scratched the surface, we did good, but we never really cracked it. We just didn’t stay here. We never had our own tour! We supported Ariana and Demi and honestly… shoulda woulda coulda. So many, like – ugh! I try not to think about it. Even when we did Demi and Ariana’s tours, the whole arena knew who we were, were screaming for us… It was like, ‘Guys, come on! Label, management, what are you doing?! We’re known! We have something here! We should be finessing it.’ But it just never happened.”

Leigh-Anne: “There’s that one line Perrie does in Secret Love Song when we performed at ‘The Search’ – that iconic performance, may I just say! She ends it, and it’s literally the most beautiful note I think I’ve ever heard. I sometimes just replay it.”

![Leigh-Anne says she wants to move to New York because she feels her music would resonate more with a U.S. market, but her husband doesn't want to move there: "In the UK, there's a lot of Black female artists that aren't getting the support they deserve, and people are coming to America for that reason. […] Having experienced everything I've experienced, I'm now like, 'I'm going where I'm loved'. That helps my mental health. […] I definitely feel like there's a market here for me and a fanbase that I can keep nurturing. But I have to be here. And I'll be honest, it is really hard with kids. My girls go to school in the UK. Like, if I come here, I can only really do 2 weeks at a time. I want to move to New York, but my husband doesn't want to. I mean, I get it! *Laughs* It's frustrating."](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2075666148289552633/amplify_video_thumb/2075664494852784128/img/4f4OTEZZU8UZhvvO.jpg)

Leigh-Anne’s sister Sairah refutes claims that Leigh’s husband doesn’t support her solo career, saying “people always take what Leigh says so far and wide” that context, perspective and “common sense” get lost. Agreeing with a fan who said “it’s completely fair that a Black man doesn’t want to live in the US”, Sairah clarifies that he “would support Leigh no matter what”, and his hesitation to move there for her solo career stems from concerns about “raising kids in the US”, which is “a whole different story for some people”.

Perrie says she’s “sad” she couldn’t enjoy her pregnancy with Alanis because she was too “on edge” following her two miscarriages: “When I was pregnant with Alanis, I was just on edge the whole time. All I did was eat. I gained 4.5 stone of comfort food. Every appointment, my stomach felt like it was doing somersaults. Every appointment wasn’t enjoyable. And that upsets me, because I love being pregnant. I love the feeling of it, I love carrying a baby. I feel powerful, I feel untouchable. It’s wild how you feel. I’m sad that during the pregnancy, I didn’t get to enjoy it fully until the very end, because I was just always on edge.“

Lily Allen delivers a touching speech about JADE while presenting her with O2 Silver Clef’s Best Female Award: “This is the award for Best Female, full-stop. No qualifiers or caveats. JADE really is the best woman. I am OBSESSED with JADE. JADE the musician in all-caps, and Jade the woman in lowercase. Infectious in her energy and inspiring in her drive, watching her work fills me with awe. Watching her live, even more so. She dives in, digs deep, loves ferociously, dances frenetically, and approaches everything with a generosity and optimism that we could all learn from. It is my absolute privilege to present the award for Best Female to my friend and collaborator, JADE.”

It’s stories! I’ve got so much to say and so much tea to spill. It still happened! What do you want me to do?

Perrie says her current relationship is “the reverse” of her previous relationship, as they “very rarely argue” and she no longer feels like she has to “walk on eggshells”: “Little things might happen and I’d think, ‘Oh no, he’s gonna kick off.’ One point, my ex reached out, and I didn’t know how to the handle the situation cause I’d been with Alex for like, a year-and-a-half/two years. I remember sweating and panicking, thinking, ‘I’ve got to tell him that I spoke to him’, and I remember being terrified. I told him everything and he was like, ‘Okay, well I really appreciate you telling me. Thank you for letting me know. That’s fine.’ And that was it.

Perrie opens up for the first time about experiencing two miscarriages and losing a baby 6 months into pregnancy: “The first time it happened, I think because it was so early, I was like, ‘Aw, that's sad’. But I think when you're fully carrying and you’re 24 weeks and you've planned out that room and all these things, it's really hard. I’ve never spoken about it before because I end up a wreck. Nobody knows other than immediate friends and family. And I remember shortly after, friends would message and be like, ‘How's bump?’ And I'd be like, ‘There isn’t one.’ It was just a lot.”
