Pop star Jade Thirlwall has admitted the lengths she went to try and help keep hidden the pregnancies of her Little Mix bandmates Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Perrie Edwards.
Leigh-Anne, 29, and Perrie, 27, both announced their exciting baby news in quick succession.
But of course, there were a select few who knew the news long before it was made public knowledge.
One such being remaining bandmate Jade, 28, who had to help keep it all under wraps.
In a recent interview, singing sensation Perrie opened up on Jade’s clever tactics to try and succeed in doing so in intense rehearsals.
She explained: “We were pregnant at the time and so out of breath, but we didn’t want anybody to know… so like choreographers and things.
“We didn’t want anyone to know so Jade was going ‘oh my back’ and she was joining in!
“Leigh-Anne was going ‘my back hurts’ and Jade would go ‘oh my back, I know, my back is gone!'”
Jade joked: “Any excuse for me to sit out for five minutes… I was just like ‘yeah me too!'”

Another segment from the interview details the adorable moment when Perrie and Leigh Anne learned of each other’s pregnancies.
It was at the same time manager Samantha Cox announced to the pair she was also expecting.
Perrie explained: “We were on a work Zoom [call] and we were chatting about things that were coming up in the schedule…
“I was on the Zoom to management and I thought, ‘I’m not going to be able to do that, I probably won’t be able to do that, oh no, I’m ruining everything!”
Asked by Leigh Anne whether she had told anyone at the moment in question, Perrie confirmed she had not.
She continued: “So I messaged my manager Sam and I said, ‘Sam, I need to talk to you ASAP.’
“She just called me straight away and was like ‘You’re pregnant,’ and I said ‘How do you know that?’
It was then when Sam dropped the bombshell she was also pregnant before soon adding Leigh Anne to the call.
“And then we just cried out eyes out,” Perrie gushed upon their realisation.
It’s been a busy month for Little Mix after bagging their Brit Award win for Best British Group.
They released their latest single Heartbreak Anthem this week, which was quickly met with huge love from their fans.
