Little Mix’s Perrie Edwards reveals she’s had throat operation

The singer already has a scar on her stomach from previous surgery

Perrie Edwards has revealed she’s had surgery to deal with problems with her oesophagus.

The Little Mix star, 25, shared a pic to Instagram on Thursday saying she consoled herself with her favourite pudding after the procedure.

Perrie shared a snap of herself in a restaurant with an empty plate, writing: “Only I would have an operation then ask to be taken to the ivy for my favourite chocolate bomb dessert!

“My oesophagus can’t come between me and my love of food. What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.”

In the picture she is still wearing her hospital wristband while sporting a make-up free face.

She later shared a video to her Instagram story of her mother sleeping (and snoring!), saying she wanted to “keep an eye on me” and “make sure I’m okay tonight”.

The star wrote: “My mam wanting to ‘keep an eye on me’ and ‘make sure I’m okay tonight’. Bless her.

“She’s had a long day. I swear if she doesn’t stop snoring ama have to start swinging. I love her. (sic).”

Perrie revealed she ended up giving her mum “a nudge” because her snoring was keeping her awake.

She quipped: “She’s not amused. Not 1 bit! I had to give her a nudge. I couldn’t take the snoring.”

The star has a large scar across her stomach which is the result of surgery she had as a child on her oesophagus.

She previously told Now magazine: “My [biggest body-hang up] is my scar on my stomach.

“When I was little, my oesophagus was too small, so I had to get it operated on to help me eat properly.

“I had to have lots of operations, so that’s why I don’t want to show it.”

“Thanks for all the lovely messages & Im sorry to miss some of our gigs! Love u mixers Perrie [sic].”
