As Perrie Edwards marries in Portugal, Jesy Nelson stays home caring for her twin daughters with a rare disease. The released documentary has reignited tensions, and Perrie declares any reunion impossible.
At an intimate but lavish ceremony in the picturesque Algarve, Jade Thirlwall and Leigh-Anne Pinnock will watch as Perrie Edwards ties the knot with her footballer boyfriend under the Portuguese sun.
But while they celebrate in style this weekend, one person will be notably absent from proceedings - their former Little Mix bandmate Jesy Nelson. For Jesy will be at home, caring for her beloved twin daughters who suffer from an extremely rare genetic neuromuscular disease. Indeed, the lives of the once stratospherically successful girl group couldn't be more different now. The band, which rose to fame together on The X Factor in 2011, split in 2022.
The break-up was prompted by Jesy's desire to go solo in 2020, which sparked a bitter feud. Tensions eased earlier this year after Jesy announced the shock news that her twins, Ocean and Story, were born with Spinal Muscular Atrophy, and will probably never walk. She subsequently revealed she had split from their father, her ex-fiancé Zion Foster.
The girls rallied around their former bandmate, with Jesy revealing in January that the singers had been in touch to support her in the wake of the shocking and life-changing diagnosis. Yet the truce didn't last long. The Daily Mail now understands that any hopes of a reconciliation have been derailed by the release of Jesy's Amazon documentary Jesy Nelson: Life After Little Mix, which came out in February and reopened old wounds.
'So much time has gone by now,' one associate of Jesy's tells the Daily Mail. 'You'd think by now that the other Little Mix girls would be nice to her. 'It feels like, because there are three of them against one, there is some ganging up going on here. It doesn't feel right.
' Perrie Edwards and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are set to get married this weekend in Portugal But while Perrie celebrates in style this weekend, one person will be notably absent from proceedings - her former Little Mix bandmate Jesy Nelson Little Mix rose to fame together on The X Factor in 2011 - but split in 2022, prompted by Jesy's desire to go solo in 2020 The docuseries, which chronicled Jesy's struggles in the band, seems to have angered the other girls and dredged up the feelings of animosity surrounding her departure in 2020 after nine years. When Jesy left, she revealed that the pressure of being in the band had taken a toll on her mental health.
She took a swipe at her bandmates, adding: 'I need to spend some time with the people I love, doing things that make me happy.
' Perrie, 32, Jade, 33, and Leigh-Anne, 34, continued as a trio before eventually splitting to pursue solo projects. The three of them remain close friends, often gushing over each other in interviews and supporting one another at gigs - but they have certainly made it clear they still have lingering animosity towards Jesy.
Sources tell the Daily Mail that, following Jesy's exit from the group, there was an 'obvious PR campaign' to ensure that the trio emerged on top from the fallout. In 2021, Leigh-Anne accused her former friend of 'blackfishing' in the music video for Jesy's solo hit Boyz in leaked messages with influencer NoHun. It blew up into the biggest showbiz scandal of the year, with friends of Leigh-Anne, Perrie and Jade stirring up a media backlash against Jesy.
'There's poor Jesy out on her own; she has always felt like the odd one out and it has been hard for her,' said the source. 'With what has happened to her babies, you would think that the others might want to bury the hatchet. Sadly it seems like that's no longer a possibility.
' Indeed, during an appearance on Jamie Laing's Great Company podcast on Wednesday, Perrie revealed she has cut out 'difficult' Jesy from her life for good. She told Jamie that it is very unlikely that the four will ever reunite as Jesy 'upset and hurt me in a way where there is no going back'.
The singer accused her former bandmate of not taking accountability for her behaviour leading up to her exit from the band and claimed that, after watching Jesy's documentary, she realised that she doesn't 'have the capacity for someone like that in my life anymore.

That boils my blood.
' She continued: 'You can only pick someone up so many f***ing times before you start losing track of your own sanity. ' Jesy claimed in her documentary that she had felt unsupported through her mental health battles whilst she was in the ban
