Little Mix's Jesy Nelson pulled a prank on a CBBC presenter by pretending to storm out of an interview.

Clearly in a mischievous mood, the pop star decided to get up and walk off the set of Friday Download when the host asked her about her boyfriend Jake Roche.

The star's bandmates seemed to be in on the prank, appearing to be genuinely concerned for their friend when she appeared to burst into tears during the show.

Presenter Harvey seemed to start the drama when he asked Nelson: "You wear quite a lot of hats right, Jesy?

"Who else wears a lot of hats? Jake from Rixton. Your boyfriend, right? You have 'his and hers' hats, no?"

Seeming to take offence to the reference to her boyfriend, Nelson responded: "Why have you got a problem with me wearing hats? I've got my own style, I don't just copy my boyfriend."

The star then jumped up from her seat and left the studio, saying: "You know what, I'm not doing this guys."

Bandmate Leigh-Anne Pinnock followed her, adding: "That's really out of order, y'know."

Seeing how horrified 16-year-old presenter Harvey was, the girls quickly backtracked, letting everyone in on the joke.

Little Mix, who won The X Factor in 2011, are currently promoting their forthcoming album, Get Weird.
