Perrie Edwards, best known as a member of the British girl group Little Mix, has shared deeply personal details about her life, including suffering two miscarriages before welcoming her second child in January 2026. The singer, who is engaged to footballer Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, revealed she lost a baby at 24 weeks in what she described as the 'worst day of my life'.
Edwards, 32, gave birth to a daughter named Alanis Valentine in January 2026, joining her son Axel, who is four. She and Oxlade-Chamberlain have been together since 2016 and are set to finally move in together after his football career kept them apart. Before her current relationship, she famously dated One Direction's Zayn Malik.
Born with congenital anosmia—the inability to smell—Edwards underwent surgery as a child but declined further operations. She rose to fame after winning The X Factor in 2011 as part of Little Mix, alongside Jesy Nelson, Jade Thirlwall and Leigh-Anne Pinnock. The group scored hits like 'Shout Out To My Ex' and 'Black Magic' before going on hiatus in 2022.
Since then, Edwards has launched a solo career, releasing her debut single 'Forget About Us' in 2024, co-written with Ed Sheeran. Her net worth is estimated at £15 million, bolstered by music sales and her gym wear brand Disora. She also has a half-sister and an older brother.
