The recent news follows Jade's Brit Awards triumph where she won best pop act and performed Angel of My Dreams live on stage. She was the last of her Little Mix bandmates to put out material following their hiatus in May 2022 - but it appears it was worth the wait. Alongside her Brits success, Jade has also landed a coveted spot performing at Glastonbury this year. Speaking to People, she said: 'I just knew I wanted to surprise people. I do think I've got quite a chaotic, creative brain, and I only get one shot of doing the debut single. Moment Jade Thirlwall is left speechless by savage The Assembly question 'So why not push the boundaries and do something a bit more out there? I feel like Angel of My Dreams is a perfect introduction into the Jade world. 'I wanted the song to almost sound like a musical masterpiece, and I wanted it to feel relentless. I feel like we nailed the brief, and people are enjoying it. 'I think it's refreshing to have a song out there that doesn't follow the status quo of pop.' Jade's debut has been the most successful of Little Mix, with Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Perrie Edwards struggling with their follow up releases. Leigh-Anne's most recent three singles failed to chart while Perrie's You Go Your Way limped in at number 52. Meanwhile Jesy Nelson - who was first to quit the band - appears to have abandoned hopes of a solo career. She is currently expecting twins with her partner Zion Foster.
