Perrie Edwards’ mum Deborah Edwards basically hinted about her daughter’s pregnancy last week in a cute excited-grandmother-to-be move – but Little Mix fans completely missed it.
Little Mix might be down by one member, after Jesy Nelson quit late last year, but the group is definitely growing in other ways.
In the last week, two out of three of the band – Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Perrie Edwards – announced that they were expecting, sharing glorious baby bump pics on their social media channels.
However, it seems like Perrie’s mum Deborah dropped the bombshell about her daughter’s pregnancy in a post last week.
Following the announcement of Leigh-Anne’s pregnancy, which came first, Deborah tweeted a congratulatory message which said: “Massive congratulations to Leigh-Anne and Andre… babies on tour xx can’t wait xx.”
The “babies” reference now makes complete sense, and while many fans didn’t catch it at the time, others probed her for more information.
Some eagle-eyed fans were quick to start speculating as one tweeted: “Babies?! Like plural?! OMG!? *faints*,” while another chimed: “What do you mean with babies?”
Following Perrie’s pregnancy announcement on May 10, the beaming grandmother-to-be tweeted to confirm the news, with a cheeky reference to her cryptic tweet.
She wrote: “Massive congratulations to my beautiful daughter Perrie and Alexander… I am bursting with pride… and cannot wait to see my grandchild.. as I said… babies on tour lol.”
Congratulatory messages have been pouring in from celebrities and fans worldwide for both Leigh-Anne and Perrie.
Fellow bandmate Jade Thirlwall commented on Instagram: “Beaming for you both. I’m the luckiest auntie in the world! Love youuuuu x.”
It was a busy week for Little Mix fans last week, as Jesy Nelson spoke out for the first time since leaving the band, too.
She told Cosmopolitan: “I felt like I was coming into an environment, sometimes, where people didn’t want me to be there,” revealed Jesy.
“[But] I don’t have to worry about having a music video or doing an interview wearing an outfit that I don’t want to wear because three other girls want to wear it.”
