Former Little Mix singer Perrie Edwards says her breakup with Zayn Malik was “hellish” and describes the experience as involving significant public heartbreak, according to multiple reports. The outlets characterise Edwards’ comments as rare and direct, focusing on how the split played out in the public eye.

One report also includes Edwards’ claim that “there was a bit of an overlap” between her relationship ending and Malik’s subsequent relationship. The same reporting frames her remarks as an admission that the timing may not have been entirely clean-cut. The articles do not indicate that Edwards provides additional verifiable details, such as specific dates or documents, but they present her statements as her perspective on events.

Across the sources, the key points remain consistent: Edwards discusses the emotional impact of the breakup, and she addresses the timing of the end of her relationship in relation to Malik moving on. The reports present her comments as statements made by Edwards, without corroboration in the articles themselves.
