Perrie has launched her debut solo single, 'Forget About Us'

Perrie has released her debut single, 'Forget About Us'.

The Little Mixer's first solo offering, it was co-written by Perrie with Ed Sheeran, songwriter David Hodges, and Steve Solomon.

Perrie says: "I look back on past relationships and do think happily about those times. Do I want to be there now? No. It didn’t work out that way and if it was supposed to be it would have happened. Relationships have been a huge part of my life and they've made me who I am now. I think it’s a nice sentiment to be honest about and it’s super relatable."

Of her solo endeavour, she adds: "Going into sessions as a solo artist now and being able to say what I want and I feel is just the most amazing experience. I never had the confidence to do that before, but this process has allowed me to believe in myself and explore all my different emotions and different parts of my life."
