The other ladies, Perrie Edwards, Jade Thirlwall, and Leigh-Anne Pinnock, took to their Little Mix Twitter account to express their friend’s absence. On the day of The Search’s finale, the ladies said, “We’re so sad Jesy won’t be able to join us tonight, but we have such an amazing show in store for you all.”
Can you believe tonight’s the FINAL of @LMTheSearch!! We’re unbelievably proud of all 6 bands and we can’t wait to see the final 4 perform! We’re so sad Jesy won’t be able to join us tonight, but we have such an amazing show in store for you all x pic.twitter.com/JRKL008VXL

The Search, broadcasted on BBC, followed six bands as they competed to join Little Mix on their next tour. Unfortunately, the girl group had to go through with the finale and perform their hit “Secret Love Song” without Nelson.
The three bandmates also missed Nelson’s presence as they hosted and performed “Sweet Melody” at the MTV EMAs on November 8. The ladies virtually brought their joy and charisma from various European cities due to ongoing travel restrictions prompted by the pandemic.
The MTV EMAs also awarded Little Mix with Best Pop and UK & Ireland Act awards. Edwards, Thirwall, and Pinnock accepted the recognition on behalf of Nelson, expressing how they wished Nelson would be there with them.
I miss Jesy, I hope she’s feeling a bit better or at least gets a speedy recovery soon and a well deserved rest 🥺 #weloveyoujesy @LittleMix pic.twitter.com/10KT1TGPVe
