The Little Mix singer is gearing up to release her new single If He Wanted To He Would and her debut solo album.
It comes after she revealed for the first time she had two miscarriages, describing the most recent as the "worst day of my life".
Speaking on the We Need To Talk podcast with Paul C Brunson, Perrie said her first miscarriage before the birth of her son Axel in 2021, occurred very early in the pregnancy.
"I remember finding out I was pregnant. Obviously, I started bleeding not long after, and I went to hospital and I had the scan and they were like, 'There's no baby.'
"And I was like, 'Oh, I've made this up. Maybe I got a false positive or something'.
"I remember being on my own at the appointments."
She went on to describe Axel - her son with fiance Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, a former England footballer - as her "rainbow baby", a term for a child born after pregnancy loss.
Less than a year after Axel's birth, she became pregnant again.
"I was rehearsing for the last Little Mix tour, and I thought, 'I don't feel good'. Every symptom under the sun. I was like, 'I think I'm pregnant,'" she said.
But by 24 weeks, after Edwards had started planning the nursery, doctors told the couple the baby had no heartbeat, in what the singer said was the "worst day of my life".
Brave Perrie Edwards reveals devastating miscarriage at six months & shares heart-breaking detail of how she'd already planned baby's bedroom
She said: "It's weird, because the first time it happened, I think because it was so early, I was like, 'Oh, that's hard'.
"But I think when you're 24 weeks and you've planned out that room and all these things, it's really hard. And nobody knows other than immediate friends and family."
Perrie, from South Shields in Tyneside, has been with former Liverpool and Arsenal midfielder Oxlade-Chamberlain since 2017 and they became engaged in 2022, the same year Little Mix went on hiatus and around the time she suffered her second miscarriage.
The group also included Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Jesy Nelson and Jade Thirlwall.

The celebrity-approved way to wear your silky scarf this summer – and it's not how you think
Check out the Zara piece that makes the trend even easier - and it's under £40. SCARF STYLE The celebrity-approved way to wear your silky scarf this summer – and it's not how you think IF there's one accessory trend every fashionista is coveting this summer, it's the square scarf. The humble neck scarf has become one of the most versatile and affordable wardrobe updates of the season, with the high street selling styles to suit all scarf fanatics. Traditionally, they have been worn on the head if you're a Hollywood icon, or, more commonly, around the neck. Tie yours in a chic Parisian knot or go for bandana-style - the 'cowboy twist' is making a huge comeback this season thanks to Western influences of hit Netflix shows like Yellowstone. 9 One fashionista at Copenhagen Fashion Week showing how to wear a floral printed silk scarf the new way Credit: Getty 9 The scarf as a belt is a true Y2K fashion trend, along with Capri pants and kitten heels Credit: Getty But more recently, we've spotted celebrities from Alexa Chung to Jennifer Lawrence and Kylie Jenner wearing their silk scarves in the most unexpected way. How? Celebrities have been spotted wrapping silky squares into chic belt-like statements, or worn loosely slung around hips, turning this classic item into a fresh, boho-meets-glam style move. 9 Alexa Chung, wearing a gold chain-printed scarf as a belt to elevate her casual outfit Credit: Getty (Photo by Neil P. Mockford/Getty Images for Gucci) Whether tied over jeans, draped with tailored trousers or cinching a flowy dress, this waist-wrap trend is the newest way to let your scarf do the talking. We're quite simply obsessed. Here, fashion stylist Lauren Goodwin-Grafton takes a look at the most stylish and affordable silk scarfs on the high street. 9 Blue Satin Chain Print Scarf With Ring, £22, River Island Credit: Scarf, River Island - BUY NOW This blue chain-print scarf from River Island features a gold ring that takes the hassle out of tying it around your neck when getting ready. The ring is removable, so if you do want to tie it around your waist, it works perfectly. It's a great multi-functional piece and the chain print gives it a luxe look that feels way more expensive than £22. 9 Tomato Placement Satin Square Scarf, £11, Next Credit: Scarf, Next - BUY NOW If graphic prints are your thing, then this scarf will be right up your street. La Dolce Vita tomato prints have been popping up everywhere this summer, and this is a great way to embrace the trend through an accessory. Plus, it will add a pop of colour into an otherwise neutral outfit, and it also comes in a gorgeous tablescape print. For just £11 each, these are such a steal - bravo, Next! 9 Patterned Cotton Scarf, £6.99, H&M Credit: Scarf, H&M - BUY NOW Looking for something a little more low-key? Pick up this paisley printed style from H&M and you'll be on to a winner.

It comes in a Western-inspired print, too, which will double up perfectly for any cowgirl-themed dress codes! 9 Leopard Print Satin Printed Multiway Head Scarf, £18, Friends Like These at Next Credit: Scarf, Friends Like These - BUY NOW Animal print has been a fashion staple for the last couple of years - and it looks like it's here to stay for A/W. This fun, twisted pattern feels more elevated than a traditional leopard print. Plus, it's super-versatile, featuring shades of beige and black - it's essentially a neutral that'll work just as well in your summer suitcase as your winter wardrobe. 9 Wide-Led Mid-Waist Scarf Jeans, £35.99, Zara Credit: Jeans with Scarf, Zara - BUY NOW Want more bang for your buck? This pair of jeans from Zara come with a pre-tied crochet scarf, which taps perfectly into the boho trend. These are ideal because you know that the scarf is going to be big enough to wrap around your waist, so there's no faff. And you can obviously untie the scarf and use it to jazz up other outfits, if you like. A new pair of jeans and a trendy scarf for under £40? Yes, please! 9 Striped Satin Scarf, £12.99, Mango Credit: Scarf, Mango - BUY NOW This scarf from Mango is great if you're looking for something a little more chic. The burgundy stripe will take you well into autumn, as it's set to remain one of the biggest colours of the season.
