Perrie Edwards on Little Mix Split and Solo Plans

Perrie Edwards has expressed heartbreak over her estranged relationship with former Little Mix bandmate Jesy Nelson, who left the group in 2020 due to mental health concerns. Edwards revealed in a Cosmopolitan interview that they haven't spoken in a long time, which she finds 'sad and heartbreaking,' although she respects Nelson's decision to part ways. Edwards reflected on the success of Little Mix, which sold 60 million records and achieved several UK number-one singles. Since the band's hiatus in 2022, Edwards has found new confidence in performing solo, similar to the transformative experience of becoming a mother. She has released singles 'Forget About Us' and 'Tears' in 2024 and plans to launch a debut solo album. Edwards also candidly discussed her struggles with anxiety, describing it as the worst it's ever been and emphasizing the importance of speaking out about mental health issues.
