PERRIE EDWARDS: Letting Go of a Friendship I Thought Would Last Forever

Perrie Edwards was just 17 when she found fame on The X Factor. After auditioning for the show, she was put together with Jade, Leigh-Anne and Jesy to form Little Mix - a group that became one of the biggest girlbands in British pop history.

In our conversation, Perrie reveals that one of the hardest things about being famous is having some of her most personal experiences play out in the public eye.

From the very public end of her friendship with Jesy to going through a break-up, Perrie opens up about what it's really like to grieve, heal and grow while the world is watching.

In this episode, Perrie shares:

• The reality of being on The X Factor at 17
• Going through a very public break-up with Zayn Malik
• The emotional and physical impact of experiencing two miscarriages
• The secure, fulfilling love she’s found with her husband Alex
• Why she's made peace with her friendship with Jesy coming to an end

Perrie is a reminder that the people we grew up watching on stage are still figuring things out and that there's real strength in being honest about that.
