Perrie Edwards gives birth to second child as old Little Mix bandmates congratulate her - what is the baby's name?
Former Little Mix singer Perrie Edwards has given birth to her second child with footballer Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, she has announced.
The 32-year-old, who already shares a son named Axel with the ex-England midfielder, posted a black and white picture of her newborn on Instagram today (January 17), revealing she had named her Alanis Valentine.
She was congratulated by celebrity pals such as former bandmates Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Jade Thirlwall, plus singers Pixie Lott and Nina Nesbitt.
Edwards, from South Shields in Tyneside, has been with former Liverpool and Arsenal midfielder Oxlade-Chamberlain since 2017 and they became engaged in 2022.
She rose to fame after winning The X Factor in 2011 with the pop group Little Mix which included Edwards, Pinnock, Thirlwall and Jesy Nelson, who have gone on to have five UK number one singles and a UK number one album.
Their best known songs include Black Magic, Shout Out To My Ex and Wings.
Nelson left the band in December 2020, however, the group continued to perform as a trio until they went on a hiatus in 2022 which was around the time Edwards suffered her second miscarriage.
She has since launched her solo career, performing under the stage name Perrie, and released new music including Forget About Us, Tears and You Go Your Way.
Edwards released her debut solo album last year.
