Perrie Edwards has branded her former Little Mix bandmate Jesy Nelson "difficult".
Jesy left the girl group in December 2020, and at the time, claimed living in the spotlight had impacted her mental health.
During an interview on Jamie Laing's Great Company podcast, Perrie slammed Jesy for failing to acknowledge her own behaviour before decided to quit.
"What annoys me is the most, and again I have to be careful how I say this as I don't want to seem like a b**ch, but for me, what upsets me the most is when situations like this happen, when the other person doesn't take any accountability, that boils my blood," Perrie said.
"I am not blaming everything on you, I am not saying that she's this f**king monster and everything was her fault and blah, blah, blah but take some accountability for your actions and realise you were difficult, you did have difficult moments."
Following Jesy's departure, Perrie, Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Jade Thirlwall continued to perform as a trio, before deciding to pursue solo careers in 2022.
The 34-year-old singer also claimed in her documentary, Life After Little Mix, earlier this year she had felt alone in the band and accused the other girls of failing to support her when she was struggling.
Seemingly responding to those claims, Perrie, 32, insisted they did support Jesy.
"Don't put the blame on me and make me out to be something I am not. Yes, I am not perfect and I might not have been there enough or I could have done better I suppose," Perrie fumed.
"But I thought what I was doing was enough, I thought that I tried everything and so then to sit there in further interviews and discuss it publicly and be like, 'I wasn't supported', you were though... you were, so just, again, take some accountability."
Jesy has previously admitted she hasn't spoken to the rest of the group since her departure.
When asked if she would consider a reunion with Jesy, Perrie made it clear that was unlikely to happen.
"Part of me wanted to (reconcile the friendship), until the documentary (came out), and then part of me withdrew again," she admitted.
"This is the thing: I am not a horrible person, I haven't got a band bone in my body, but I can cut you off. I can cut you out of my life like that, if you upset me and hurt me in a way, there's not really any going back," she continued. "I just don't have that the energy for it and as much as I will always love her I don't think I can hack that energy in my space."
