LITTLE Mix fans are convinced Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Perrie Edwards made a "secret pact" over their pregnancies.

The bandmates found out they were both expecting their first child at a similar time, with Leigh-Anne being the first to announce it to fans.

A week later, Perrie revealed she was also pregnant, saying she was "so happy to be on this wild journey with my soulmate" Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

On Saturday, she revealed she's given birth – but is yet to update fans on the gender or name of her child.

Meanwhile fans think Leigh-Anne has secretly welcomed her bundle of joy- but is keeping in quiet for now.

They believe it's because the pair made a pact to have one announce the pregnancy and the other the birth, to allow them both equal attention.

One said: "Leigh-Anne: 'I’ll announce my pregnancy first.

"Perrie 'I’ll give birth first'."

Meanwhile their former bandmate Jesy Nelson has ignored Perrie's baby news.

The 30-year-old shared sexy snaps after jetting off aboard as the 28-year-old became a mum for the first time.

Stacey Solomon, Giovanna Fletcher and Love Island's Chris Hughes were among the stars to comment – as well as her bandmates.

Leigh-Anne Pinnock, who is also expecting her first baby, wrote: "I am so proud of you and I love you so much ? what an angel ❤️❤️??"

And Jade Thirlwall gushed: "?♥️ Proud of you always. Ly ✨"

But a congratulations from Jesy was notably absent.

She didn't even like the post, seemingly snubbing her former pal's exciting life milestone altogether.

That may not be a surprise to Little Mix fans after Jesy admitted that she is no longer in touch with her bandmates, who'd supported her throughout her mental health battle in the spotlight.

When asked in a new interview with The Guardian if she still speaks to the girls, she replied: “No, not as much. Not now. I think we all need time. It’s a big thing that’s happened.”

Referencing Perrie and Leigh-Anne's pregnancies, she added: “I reckon they’ll look after their babies, go off and do their own things for a while, then make a comeback together.

“I think they’re just as sick as a three. They’re still doing it for girl power. I still love them to pieces. They were like my sisters.”

Jesy sensationally quit the girl group back in December after nine years, saying that the fame had taken a "toll" on her mental health.

Earlier this month, she announced that her solo career is kicking off imminently, with her debut single Boyz expected to be released in the coming weeks.

Meanwhile, Perrie took to her Instagram page yesterday to reveal that she'd given birth, sharing two black and white photos of the little one's hand and foot and simply writing: "Welcome to the world baby 21/08/21 ♥️"

The baby's name and gender is yet to be announced.
