Discussing how it’s going the behind-the-scenes, Jade said: ‘It’s been really interesting, because we’ve had to learn to do that ourselves, in terms of getting along and seeing the bigger picture, it’s making groups and seeing the energy. 

‘It’s quite hard getting the groups to gel.’

The singer also admitted that she wasn’t expecting her groups to click like she did with her Little Mix bandmates, when they were formed on the X Factor in 2011.  

She continued: ‘We’re not naive enough to think that’s going to happen with another group we put together, we really need to get it right and look out for them and help them all.’ 

Little Mix: The Search begins on Saturday, September 26th on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
