LITTLE Mix's Jade Thirlwall left London's O2 Arena in high spirits last night after her band made history by winning Best British Group at the Brits.

The 28-year-old appeared in a celebratory mood as she was pictured hilariously grabbing her chest and pouting while getting into a waiting car.

The Touch hitmaker looked sensational in a white sequin gown and styled her hair in long braids.

Jade kept up her hilarious antics as she stuck her tongue out and threw her hands in the air.

The Wasabi singer was joined by bandmates Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Perrie Edwards in the car as they left the venue following a big night for the girls.

The trio made Brit Award history last night as they became the first ever girl band in the awards' history to win Best British Group.

The girls' win left their fans in tears as they thanked their former bandmate Jesy Nelson while accepting the coveted gong.

Pregnant Perrie started: “Guys we have just made history. I am really emotional.”

Admitting they had to write down their speech because two of them had "baby brain", Leigh-Anne said: "We have been together for ten years, we have been through so much, we have had so much fun.

"We want to thank our amazing fans and of course Jesy."

In a powerful moment, she continued: "It's not easy being a female in the UK pop industry. We have seen white male dominance, misogyny, sexism and lack of diversity.

"We are proud of how we have stuck together, stood our ground and surrounded ourselves with strong women and are now using our voices more than ever."

Jade then weighed in on Little Mix becoming the first ever girl group to win the award and said: "The fact that a girl band has never won this award really does speak volumes.

"So this award isn’t just for us, it’s for the Spice Girls, Sugababes, All Saints, Girls Aloud, all of the incredible female bands - this one’s for you!"

The moment left their fans very emotional, with one writing: “When they mentioned Jesy I burst into tears like I’m not even joking #brits”

Another added: “AM CRYING SO MUCH OVER LITTLE MIX SPEECH AND THEY MENTIONED JESY!! MY RECORD BREAKERS! FIRST GIRL GROUP TO WIN BRITISH GROUP AWARD EVER!!”

While someone else wrote: “I love how they thank Jesy, I'm crying”.

It was their first Brit win without Jesy, who quit the X Factor-formed girl group in December, saying the high-profile role had "taken a toll" on her mental health.

It was their third Brit in total, after they won best single in 2017 for Shout Out To My Ex and best video in 2019 for Woman Like Me featuring Nicki Minaj.

In comes after Leigh-Anne and Perrie announced surprise pregnancies this month.
