On Saturday morning, publicist Simon Jones posted a statement from the group on Twitter which said: “Jesy is unwell and will not be appearing on tonight’s final of Little Mix The Search.
“She will also not be hosting or performing at tomorrow’s MTV EMAs.”
The BBC One talent show Little Mix The Search has seen six bands compete for a place on the Little Mix 2021 tour.
Last month, a live episode of the show was postponed after members of the crew tested positive for Covid-19.
The band – Nelson, Perrie Edwards, Jade Thirlwall, and Leigh-Anne Pinnock – were not among those who tested positive.
Little Mix formed on The X Factor in 2011 and have become one of the country’s biggest-selling girl bands.
They left Simon Cowell’s Syco Music for the RCA label in November 2018.
Cowell later launched another version of The X Factor, called The Band, to rival the girl group’s The Search.
