I'm trying not to think about it too much

 

Hopefully whatever it is will get sorted and she will be in a good place.

I hope it’s nothing serious

I can't help thinking that Jesy has left, or is considering it. I would be disappointed but if she's not happy it's the best thing for her.

 

Fingers crossed she's okay.

If Jesy HAS left they at least have to keep it quiet until they've sold their Confetti stock. Saying that, I've watched the girls on Instagram live today and on the other posts they've done this week, and if they are keeping up a pretence they're not giving anything away with their tone of voice or body language. It's just weird that they're hardly even acknowledging that Jesy is off the radar. Most important thing though is that all is well whatever the outcome.

I think that’s the point. If they keep acknowledging Jesy people are going to ask. They referenced her on Sunday during the EMAs Instagram posts, which was to shut down the annoying rumours people were circulating. This is definitely mental health related, she just needs a rest.

Apparently they were rehearsing yesterday for Jonathan Ross (next week) without Jesy.

 

Very weird. That would be a 3 weeks absence in that case if The Search/EMAs were filmed in advance too?

How do you know that?

 

And yeah that’s very weird.. Hopefully she’s just taking a break to focus on her mental health right now...

She might need a few months off and will be back next year.

Yeah, I gathered it would be this. They’re at the point in their career where they 1) don’t care about dumb rumours 2) can be comfortable and as strong as a 3-piece temporarily.

 

Hope Jesy’s time off is beneficial for her.

Yeah. The girls have mentioned/used images of her in social media posts recently (unlike that random time when people assumed she wasn't added to that bundle thing, but it was just that she'd sold out) even when they posted their EMA's performance on Facebook they posted "We miss you Jesy <3" as well as talking about tour performances using the 4 of them etc..

 

I'm not concerned yet, I just hope she's using this time away to heal a bit and I am ready for whatever she decides to do in the future. But I'm not going to take anything as official unless she comes forward and gives a statement.

 

GWS Jesy! :heart:

Seeing stans acting up again because of the post their PR made, he didn’t tag her and now people are freaking out. (Forgetting that 1) she doesn’t have her tags on 2) she’s never followed Simon on IG)

 

Would it be really too much to accept that Jesy is taking a bit of time off for her mental health to recover and has cut herself off from the outside world. The fact that Little Mix rep told the Mirror they’re not going to comment out of respect of Jesy’s health should be enough to accept that she is just taking a break. It would be incredibly disrespectful for the girls and their team to constantly mention her. They mentioned her after the EMAs to reference the fact there’s no fall out.

 

I know this seems so OTT but it’s really irritating seeing everyone feel entitled to a statement and for an explanation. Especially relating to someone’s mental health. no one is owed anything and we just need to accept it.

I agree to some extent but it would be nice if them to just give some basic info for fans who are genuinely worried.

 

They could just say ‘Jesy is still unwell but she’s ok and will be back with us shortly’

 

To be fair, whatever they say will be taken out of context, so it is probably best they’ve just kept it out of the spotlight.

Maybe Jesy doesn't want to be mentioned at all?

 

The thing is, even if she's left, it's up to her to announce it. It wouldn't be fair for anyone else to reveal it. I just hope she's managing to successfully rehabilitate (?) Her mental health and isn't reading some of those comments.

 

Whatever her decision is, her health is more important.

i’m not saying it’s right to force the hand by any means but the silence is just perpetuating the whole situation.

 

for someone who is usually quite active on social media to suddenly disappear with little-to-no explanation, not turning up to events, turning off tagging on socials and not wanting to be mentioned - it’s going to raise alarm bells.

 

her mental health is the #1 priority in it all but, unfortunately for jesy, being a celebrity of her stature won’t fully allow the downtime that we think she’s after.

 

i really hope i’m wrong but it feels like she’s quit + instead of announcing it straight away, they’re giving her some time to think about it before announcing it. if she was having a mental health break, why not be upfront about it from the get-go? they wouldn’t even need to say it’s a mental health thing - they could just be upfront + say that, after seeking medical advice, jesy is taking some time off.

Because Jesy breathes and she gets taunted. I understand both sides of the spectrum. If they make a public announcement it’ll probably just lead to more speculation. They could post a picture of Jesy checking into a mental hospital and still have rumours created. They really don’t get to win either way. At this point in their career we should trust them with something like this.

 

Also, this week it would’ve been very odd to push confetti and have streaming parties, midway announce Jesy’s temporary break and then continue with Confetti. They’ll probably announce something this week, considering today they had Children in Need, again, it would oddly dampen the mood. I feel like that’s why they’ve been silent today regarding the chart announcement.

 

They’re filming JRoss on Wednesday so I imagine something will come between then and now. Although a number of insiders have pretty much confirmed Jesy taking time off for a few months to work on her mental health.

it wasn’t mid-week, though? their pr guy randomly announced it on twitter before the big week of promo + aside from the kylie battle, the silence has been just as much of a talking point.

 

like i said, i hope i’m wrong but it’s all just a bit suspect. i wouldn’t be surprised if the jonathan ross promo gets pulled.

No what I meant was an official announcement. I can understand why they haven’t done it yet considering since during Confetti’s release week they had to promote it, having an “official” announcement midway would dampen in, that’s what I meant, not the small announcement from their PR.

If she was to leave this would be the first time a group I like has done that :(

 

While it would be sad Jesy has to take care of her health first, mental & physical.

Jesy brings a lot to the group. She’s the one who I’m drawn to the most whenever they do choreography she’s the most natural dancer.

 

 

Oh Christ please let's not go down the road of comparing people to each other.

 

Yes. They all have amazing personalities, vocals and dance abilities.
