Little Mix star Jade Thirlwall jokes she’s ‘running away from life’ over pressure to have a baby
Little Mix star Jade Thirlwall is basically so over the constant pressure to have a baby.
The Confetti singer is currently the only non-pregnant member of the group with Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Perrie Edwards expecting their first children at the same time.
It’s led to the dreaded question of when Jade ‘will be next’ – how many of us have been there? – and, frankly, she’s bored of it.
However, the singer laughed it off with her trademark humour in a TikTok meme.
In the clip, Jade is seen running across an empty field to the soundtrack of Nobody by Mitski.
She hilariously captioned it: ‘When all your mates are having babies and they ask when it’s your turn… Don’t mind me, running away from life brb #nobody.’
Jade, 28, has been an absolute trooper for her pregnant bandmates and even faked having back ache to disguise the fact they were expecting.
In a recent TikTok interview, Perrie 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!’
She added: ‘Leigh-Anne was going “My back hurts!” and Jade would go back, “Oh my back, I know, my back is gone!”’
Jade then chimed in: ‘Any excuse for me to sit out for five minutes… I was just like “Yeah me too!”’
Perrie then said: ‘We were all in it together!’
Leigh-Anne, 29, is expecting her first child with fiance Andre Gray, while Perrie, 27, is having a baby with boyfriend Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
