Little Mix fans convinced Leigh-Anne Pinnock has given birth in secret after Perrie Edwards’ shock baby arrival

LITTLE Mix fans are convinced Leigth-Anne Pinnock has given birth in secret - after Perrie Edwards welcomed her child yesterday.

Their legion of supporters were expecting Leigh-Anne to have her baby first because she broke the news she was expecting before her bandmate.

Many noticed that Leigh-Anne’s bump appeared bigger than Perrie’s when they posed up together, so they were left baffled with Perrie and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain announced the arrival of their baby today.

Taking to Twitter to speculate, one person wrote: “yo leigh-anne for sure already gave birth to her baby too. which means her baby is also a leo. im living for it.”

A second commented: “So does that mean leighanne gave birth too. omg i love this.”

While a third wrote: “But i’m confused, did leigh anne gave birth already or perrie gave birth first??

And a fourth added: “Something in my right boob tells me Leigh-Anne already gave birth and is keeping it lowkey/secret.”

Meanwhile, Leigh-Anne’s older sister Sairah also revealed that she had given birth over the weekend - to her second little boy.

She was thought to be expecting around the same time as Leigh-Anne as they celebrated their baby showers within days of each other.

Double joy

Perrie previously revealed their double pregnancy bombshells came in a meeting plotting the group's future- and the girls hadn’t planned to have kids at the same time.

She said: “We were on a work Zoom and we were chatting about things that were coming up in our schedule because in Little Mix we are blocked out two years in advance.

“I was thinking, ‘I won’t be able to do that’.

“I messaged my manager and she called me and said, ‘You’re pregnant’."

“Then she said: ‘Can I add someone to the call?’ 

“I just heard this voice that said: ‘Perrie! You too!’ And then we just cried our eyes out. What timing!”

Baby Ox

Perrie announced she had given birth today alongside a series of adorable black and white snaps, showing their child's tiny feet and hands.

She wrote: "Welcome to the world baby 21/08/21 ♥️"

Leigh-Anne wrote:  “I am so proud of you and I love you so much 🥺 what an angel ❤️❤️😍😍.”

Her footballer boyfriend added his own pictures and shared: "Welcome to the world little one 😍❤️ 21/08/21."

Fans were alerted to the fact she was in labour on Saturday, when midfielder Alex , 28, didn’t play for Liverpool, citing “personal reasons”.

The Sun Online has contacted Leigh-Anne’s rep for comment.
