Little Mix's Jade Thirlwall the 'luckiest auntie' now Perrie and Leigh-Anne are pregnant

Little Mix fans were over the moon when Perrie Edwards announced her pregnancy just days after bandmate Leigh-Anne Pinnock revealed hers.

Perrie took to Instagram today to share that she and her boyfriend Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are expecting their first child together.

Alongside black-and-white photos from their maternity shoot, Perrie had written: "So happy to be on this wild journey with my soulmate. Me+Him = You. We can't wait to meet you baby Ox!"

Underneath the post, Perrie's fellow Little Mix mum-to-be Leigh-Anne replied: "Arghhhhhhhh so so so happy for you both! And so bloody happy we get to go on this journey together! Love you so much."

With Jade Thirlwall adding: "Beaming for you both. I’m the luckiest auntie in the world! Love youuuuu x"

Fans were overwhelmed by the idea that two out of three members of the group are pregnant and took to Twitter to share their excitement.

"The fact that two little mix members are now pregnant and both packed in as much work as they could with such a busy schedule," a user posted.

"Both announced their pregnancies on different days so each girl could have their moment and jade helped cover their pregnancies. I love their friendship."

Another excitedly tweeted: "no cuz jade wore baggy clothes to hide leigh AND perrie’s pregnancy im not okay."

One user used the comment Jade left on Perrie's Instagram post and joked: "perrie edwards: pregnant, leigh anne pinnock: pregnant, jade thirlwall: the luckiest auntie."

Meanwhile, Jade has just been happy to see her two besties go on a wonderful journey together.

Fans speculated that she and Rizzle Kicks star Jordan Stephens were dating back in May 2020.

They started dating in May and were spotted in public for the first time at a Black Trans Lives Matter march in London.

However, Jade only confirmed their relationship in an interview with Cosmopolitan in October 2020.

Just yesterday, the singer and Jordan celebrated their one year anniversary since she "slid in his DMs".

Meanwhile, Little Mix's former bandmate Jesy Nelson has stayed low key during both pregnancy announcements.

She did, however, press the like button on Perrie's post from today.

The now-solo singer didn't appear to like or comment on Leigh-Anne's post from last week.
