Jesy Nelson has pulled out of Little Mix's promotional tour of Japan.
Little Mix's Twitter post
The 'Black Magic' singer has been struck down with a "horrid" ear infection and ordered to stay at home, leading her bandmates Perrie Edwards, Jade Thirlwall and Leigh-Anne Pinnock to travel to Asia without her.
She tweeted: "Hey guys unfortunately I have a bloody horrid ear infection that is not allowing me to fly and see you beautiful Japanese mixers xjesyx.
"I am so gutted that I'm not gonna be able to come over and see you guys again I love you all very much & I can't wait to see you again soon.(sic)"
The 24-year-old star's bandmates said they were "gutted" to be doing the tour without her.
Alongside a picture of the trio looking sad on the plane, they wrote: "Gutted our beautiful Jesminda wont be in Japan with us BUT we wouldn't miss this trip for the world! So excited! x.(sic)"
The news comes a few weeks after Jesy left a party celebrating the launch of Little Mix's new album 'Get Weird' in tears.
It was claimed the singer had had a row with her fiance Jake Roche, but she later insisted she was just feeling "emotional" after a few drinks.
She said: "Everyone gets drunk and gets emotional."
Her bandmate Perrie added: "It's relatable. Everyone cries when they get drunk.
"We all need a cuddle. I love it when we stick our heads together as a four. We were in the middle of a nightclub and having a moment."
