She announced the news via Instagram

Edwards is already mum to a four-year-old Axel, alongside footballer father Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

The 32-year-old singer announced her second pregnancy in September via a heartwarming video alongside her fiancé.

In a new post on Instagram, Perrie revealed that she has given birth to her second child, a little girl.

She shared a photo of the back of the little one's head, alongside her name: "Alanis Valentine."

Friends and fans of the star have taken to the comments section to congratulate the new parents.

Kimberley Walsh of Girls Aloud wrote: "The best news so happy for you all."

While Cassie Lomas penned: "Congratulations to you all,  can’t with [sic] to meet her."

The birth of Perrie's second child comes after she revealed in an appearance on the We Need To Talk podcast that she previously suffered two miscarriages.

“I had a miscarriage very early on with my first ever pregnancy,” she said.

“I remember finding out I was pregnant [but] I started bleeding not long after, and I went to hospital and I had the scan and they were like, ‘There’s no baby.’

Perrie revealed that after the birth of Axel, she suffered a miscarriage at 24 weeks.

“We went for what was a 20-week scan, but we were actually 22 weeks, and that was just the worst day of my life. Like, horrendous," she said.

“I just knew something was wrong in the scan. I’ve never experienced an out-of-body experience where everything goes in slow motion.”
