Jade Thirlwall grabs interviewer's papers after Jesy Nelson engagement question

Little Mix star Jade Thirlwall snatched an interviewer's question sheet and threw it away after he asked about Jesy Nelson's rumored split from her fiance.

Jesy was hit with rumors she had split from her fiance Jake Roche, from band Rixton, last week (ends13Nov16) after she unfollowed him on social media and has been spotted without her engagement ring in public a few times.

During Little Mix's promotional tour of Australia, her bandmates Jade and Perrie Edwards were asked by Fitzy & Wippa on Australia's Nova 96.9 radio station about the state of Jesy's relationship and they refused to comment and instead deflected the question by talking about how shocking the line of questioning was.

"Why isn't Jessie wearing her engagement ring in Sydney?" questioned one of the presenters said and Jade cheekily responded, "That's brutal that!" before grabbing his sheet of questions, scrunching them into a ball and throwing it away.

"That is brutal! Just coming out with that, jeez! Next question sir," Perrie lightheartedly added and after one of the host's responded by saying they didn't choose the question, she said, "What are you going to do without your paper now, smart a*s?"

Jesy and Jake have remained tight-lipped about their relationship, but on Monday (14Nov16) Jake cryptically deleted all of his tweets except two which read "a**ehole" when put together. He also uploaded three pictures of a black cloud to Instagram.

They got engaged last year (15) after a year of dating. He got down on one knee onstage at Manchester Arena in England as Ed Sheeran serenaded them, but they haven't got far with wedding planning because of their hectic work schedules.

"I wish our wedding plans were moving forward, but no," she told the Daily Mirror in August (16). "Things have been so full-on for us for the past year, we just haven't had any time to do anything."
