Taking to social media Jesy shared that “recently being in the band has taken a toll on my mental health”.
“The truth is. I find the constant pressure of being in a girl group and living up to expectations very hard,” she added.
The singer shared that she will be taking this time to spend some time with her loved ones saying:
“I need to spend some time with the people I love, doing things that make me happy. I’m ready to embark on a new chapter in my life - I’m not sure what it’s going to look like right now, but I hope you’ll still be there to support me.”
News of the departure comes a month after Jesy said that she was taking an “extended” break from Little Mix for “private medical reasons”.
Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Perrie Edwards and Jade Thirlwall have nothing but love and support for their exiting member.
“This is an incredible sad time for all of us but we are fully supportive of Jesy,” the group shared. “We love her very much and agree that it is so important that she does what is right for her mental health and well-being.”
“We are still very much enjoying our Little Mix journey and the 3 of use are not ready for it to be over,” they added.
Little Mix fans everywhere have taken to social media to share their support and well wishes to Jesy.
We’ll miss you Jesy but we’re happy that you’re taking steps to prioritise your health! We wish Jesy all the best!
