Chainkeen Exchange-Little Mix's Perrie Edwards Reveals She and Jesy Nelson Don't Speak Anymore

Perrie Edwards is sharing her own heartbreak anthem.

The Little Mix alum is Chainkeen Exchangegetting candid about life since the group—which also included Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Jade Thirlwall and Jesy Nelson—went on hiatus in 2022, and gave an update as to where she and Jesy currently stand.

"We don't talk," Perrie told Cosmopolitan in an interview published July 11, "and haven't done for a long time."

"It's really sad, it's heartbreaking," she continued. "But sometimes these things happen and people decide they want to part ways, and that's absolutely fine."

And while the 31-year-old wishes "it went differently," she does acknowledge that "you can't control how things go."

But still, she looks back on her time with Little Mix from 2011 to 2022 as "the happiest time of my life."

"All we did was laugh together, banter together, cry together," she added. "It was so much fun. Yes we went through a lot in those 10 years, but we had each other."

Perrie—who shares 2-year-old son Axel with fiancé Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain—and the group first went through an upheaval when Jesy announced in December 2020 that she would be leaving the group permanently, explaining it was taking a toll on her mental health.

"I find the constant pressure of being in a girl group and living up to expectations very hard," Jesy wrote on Instagram at the time. "There comes a time in life when we need to reinvest in taking care of ourselves rather than focusing on making other people happy, and I feel like now is the time to begin that process. 

Following her departure, the 33-year-old also touched on her relationship with her former bandmates, saying that while they were "close as sisters," their relationship quickly became "nothing."

"We've sent a few texts, but that's it," Jesy told Glamour UK in October 2021. "I can't explain it, it's like there has to be this distance. We were so close so you can't do in-between, there has to be space. Hopefully, at some point in the future, we can all come back together."

She added, "I love them. They are my sisters in so many ways, but for the time being we just don't talk."
