With Little Mix’s Perrie Edwards having welcomed her first child yesterday, fans are now eagerly awaiting the safe arrival of her band mate Leigh-Anne Pinnock’s little one.
But some Mixers are convinced that the 29-year-old has actually already given birth.

When Perrie, 28, and Leigh-Anne, 29, announced they were both pregnant within one week of each other, Little Mix fans lost their collective minds and watched in awe as the two women shared their pregnancy journeys together, even appearing in multiple music videos with their bumps on display.
It was Leigh-Anne who first announced she was expecting on May 4th, followed by Perrie six days later on May 10th. At the time, fans speculated the pop star had waited a week to reveal her bump in order to not steal the spotlight from her band mate.
Now, fans are convinced the exact same thing is happening, albeit the other way around. Just check out these tweets below.
What’s more, on Sunday, Leigh-Anne hinted just how close she was to giving birth, writing: “I have dreamt of the moment I get to meet you, hold you, guide you, teach you. It’s nearly time 🖤”
Perrie announced the arrival of her little one, whom she shares with English professional footballer Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, just yesterday via Instagram, without yet revealing the baby’s name or sex.
Sharing two close-up, black-and-white photos, the 28-year-old wrote: “Welcome to the world baby 21/08/21 ♥️.”
The post was soon flooded with support, including from Leigh-Anne herself who penned: “I am so proud of you and I love you so much 🥺 what an angel ❤️❤️😍😍.”
Fellow Little Mix member Jade Thirlwall also sent her love, writing: “😭♥️ Proud of you always. Ly ✨.”
Noticeably absent from the public well wishes was Perrie’s former band member Jesy Nelson who left Little Mix in December, 2020.
However, the singer did get a message of support from her ex-boyfriend’s bandmate’s sister. Yep, that’s right, Lottie Tomlinson (sister to One Direction’s Louis Tomlinson) penned a sweet, “😍 Congratulations ❤️”.

Perrie was famously previously engaged to former One Direction member Zayn Malik who now shares a child, Khai, with model Gigi Hadid.
Zayn and Perrie’s relationship ended on rocky terms, with the latter eluding to the fact she was dumped over text. But now, both parties seemed to have moved on and started their own families.
As for Leigh-Anne, we guess we’ll just have to wait and see when she actually announces the arrival of her first child. If Little Mix fans are right, it may just be six days from now 👀.
