Perrie Edwards has revealed she has cut out ‘difficult’ Jesy Nelson from her life for good as she addressed Little Mix feud in a new interview on Wednesday.
The singer has accused her former bandmate of not taking accountability for her behaviour in the final months of her time in the girl group.
Jesy left Little Mix in December 2020 after nine years in the band, saying at the time the pressure had taken a toll on her mental health.
Perrie, Jade Thirwall and Leigh-Anne Pinnock continued as a trio before eventually splitting to pursue solo projects.
In her recent documentary, Jesy said she had not seen her former bandmate since leaving the band over five years ago but didn’t rule out a chance of a reunion.
However, Perrie has now said that it is very unlikely for the four to ever reunite as Jesy ‘upset and hurt me in a way where there is no going back’.

Speaking to Jamie Laing on his Great Company podcast, she explained: ‘What annoys me is the most, and again I have to be careful how I say this as I don’t want to seem like a b**** but for me what upsets me the most is when situations like this happen and the other person doesn’t take any accountability, that boils my blood!
‘I am not blaming everything on you, I am not saying that she’s this f****** monster and everything was her thought blah, blah, blah but take some accountability for your actions and realise you were difficult, you did have difficult moments.’
She added: ‘Granted there were reasons for those moments but you can only pick someone up so many f****** times before you start loosing track of your own sanity.’
Perrie felt she was misrepresented by Jesy’s comments, after the star said she felt unsupported through her mental health battles whilst she was in the band.
Jesy said she felt very alone and claimed their final phone call was awkward and made her feel like she was talking to a bunch of strangers.
‘Don’t put the blame on me and make me out to be something I am not, yes I am not perfect and I might not have been there enough or I could have done better I suppose,’ Perrie hit back.
‘But I thought what I was doing was enough, I thought that I tried everything and so then to sit there in further interviews and discuss it publicly and be like, ‘I wasn’t supported’, you were though, you know what I am saying? you were, so take some accountability.’
When host Jamie asked if there was a possibility they might be in each other’s lives again, Perrie ruled it out.
‘If I am being completely transparent part of me wanted to until the documentary and then part of me withdraw again.
‘This is the thing I am not a horrible person, I haven’t got a bad bone in my body but I can cut you off. I can cut you out of my life like that, if you upset me and hurt me in a way there’s not really any going back.
‘I don’t have the capacity for someone like that in my life anymore and that might make me sound like a b**** but I just don’t have that the energy for it and as much as I will always love her I don’t think I can hack that energy in my space.’

Elsewhere during the interivew, Perrie revealed she had ‘serious breakdowns’ after her ‘hellish’ split from her ex fiancé Zayn Malik.
In a fairytale girl band-boy band romance, the Little Mix star, 32, dated the former One Direction star Zayn, 33, from 2011 till 2015.
The couple announced their engagement in August 2013, both aged 20, yet their love bubble was short lived and they announced their split two years later to the month.
Now, over a decade later, Perrie has opened up about the split in her most candid interview yet as she admitted there was an ‘overlap’ between Zayn ending things and being involved with someone else and referenced his first solo music video Pillowtalk, which featured Gigi Hadid.
Perrie explained: ‘I think our personal lives being everywhere. Like that was a lot. And it was a lot to deal with because it wasn’t normal.’
Delving into the heartbreak the star went on: ‘Like when you go through heartbreak, it is hellish. It’s the worst thing in the world. You can’t eat. You can’t sleep. You feel horrendous.
‘You feel abandoned and you don’t feel good enough and you feel like you’ve been left for something better or whatever it is.
‘And then what makes it even worse is, I felt like the world was then looking at me, laughing at me.
‘Not my fans, my fans were like, “we love you, we’ll fight your corner no matter what.” But I felt embarrassed. I felt horrified. It was awful.’
