Back in March, Little Mix beauty Jesy Nelson delighted her fans by announcing plans to release a documentary to raise awareness for mental health issues, and now she's revealed exactly when we can expect to see it!

Taking to her Instagram page, Jesy, who is due to go on tour with Perrie Edwards, Jade Thirlwalland Leigh-Anne Pinnock in the coming months, told her 5.4 million followers, 'So I can finally announce that my documentary 'Odd One Out' will be airing on the 12th September at 9pm on BBC One. I'm so excited for you all to see this and the incredible inspirational people I have met along the way'. [sic]

Odd One Out will show Jesy working alongside people to cover topics such as social media, body shaming and trolling, something which the Little Mix singer has received a lot of since she shot to fame on The X Factor back in 2011.

Announcing the documentary earlier this year, Jesy told fans, 'Mental health awareness is something we should all be talking about more. Having suffered myself I decided I want to do something about it.

'So I’m pleased to announce I'm making a film with the BBC, telling my own personal story and exploring how social media, body shaming and trolling is effecting the mental health of young people.'

In the video, Jesy could be heard explaining that the subject was "really close" to her heart, adding that one in four men and women will suffer with their mental health and adding that it's a subject she thinks isn't discussed enough.

She added, "I'm making this film because I really, really want to make a change and make a difference to people's lives."

The announcement comes just days after Jesy's boyfriend, Love Island 2017 star Chris Hughes defended his girl after an online troll called her 'ugly' in a super cute snap of the pair chilling over the weekend.

Jesy's documentary Odd One Out airs on BBC One on Thursday 12th September.
