Jesy left the band in 2020 citing its impact on her mental health

Boyz hitmaker Jesy, 33, shared a sweet snap of her growing belly peeking out of a white vest top as she enjoyed a cuddle with partner Zion Foster.
Yet the reveal has been overshadowed by a "wall of silence" publicly from former bandmates Perrie Edwards, Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Jade Thirlwall.
Perrie, 31, and Leigh-Anne, 33, are both parents themselves - with the latter even welcoming twin girls in August 2021.
Yet at the time, with Perrie giving birth to her first son with footballer Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain in the same month, Jesy stayed silent.

This might explain why there has been a lack of public support from her former The X Factor co-stars and bandmates.
Of course, the trio might have messages Jesy publicly, yet the Black Magic vocalist admitted four years ago the group didn't speak at all.
Meanwhile, her ex - Love Island alum Chris Hughes, 27 - was quick to share his congratulations in a sweet comment.
BAD BLOOD
The bad blood was sparked when Jesy left Little Mix in 2020, claiming being in the band had taken its toll on her mental health.

The Sun then broke the news on just how much Jesy Nelson was paid as part of her leaving Little Mix.
According to Companies House, she received a figure totalling £3m as part of the departure from the band.
BABY JOY
Yet fans will hope the sub does not dampen Jesy's excitement at being a first time mum.
Over the weekend, she took to Instagram to share a Polaroid snap of her growing bump as she beamed for the camera alongside her partner, Zion.
She captioned the shot: "She’s eating for 3 now" alongside two baby emojis.
It left fans speculating that the former Little Mix singer could be expecting twins.

Another replied: "I think so!"
Fans may also have been shocked to see her reunited with Zion, 24, considering the couple had reportedly split back in September.
