Her adorable Instagram post, which teased a glimpse at the newborn, was quickly inundated with congratulatory messages from fans and her famous pals.
Stacey Solomon, Giovanna Fletcher and Love Island’s Chris Hughes were among the stars to comment – as well as her bandmates.
Leigh-Anne Pinnock, who is also expecting her first baby, wrote: “I am so proud of you and I love you so much 🥺 what an angel ❤️❤️😍😍”
And Jade Thirlwall gushed: “😭♥️ Proud of you always. Ly ✨”
But a congratulations from Jesy is notably absent – in fact, she hasn’t even liked the post, seemingly snubbing her former pal’s exciting life milestone all together.
Little Mix fans were quick to pick up on her decision, with one tweeting: “Is Jesy going to even congratulate Perrie & Alex on the birth of the baby…”
The move comes just one day after Jesy admitted that she is no longer in touch with her bandmates, who’d supported her throughout her mental health battle in the spotlight.
When asked in a new interview with The Guardian if she still speaks to the girls, she replied: “No, not as much. Not now. I think we all need time. It’s a big thing that’s happened.”
Referencing Perrie and Leigh-Anne’s pregnancies, she added: “I reckon they’ll look after their babies, go off and do their own things for a while, then make a comeback together.
“I think they’re just as sick as a three. They’re still doing it for girl power. I still love them to pieces. They were like my sisters.”
Jesy sensationally quit the girl group back in December after nine years, saying that the fame had taken a “toll” on her mental health.
Earlier this month, she announced that her solo career is kicking off imminently, with her debut single Boyz expected to be released in the coming weeks.
Meanwhile, Perrie took to her Instagram page today to reveal that she’d given birth, sharing two black and white photos of the little one’s hand and foot and simply writing: “Welcome to the world baby 21/08/21 ♥️”
The baby’s name and gender is yet to be announced.
