There you have it! We can't wait...but the best news is that they'll be performing the single for the first time on the 16th October 2016 on The X Factor! You'll then be able to download the track straight after!

Did Little Mix Just Confirm That Their Next Album WILL Have Songs About Zayn On It?!

Check out all the speculation that occurred when the artwork leak happened a few days prior to the announcement...

The Sony Music account which is supposed to have revealed the details is from China's microblogging site Weibo, which is like a fusion of Facebook and Twitter.

The account is verified, which makes this even more mysterious as Little Mix are signed to Syco/Colombia!

This new 'reveal' comes after one of the extras from their video shoot accidentally posted a little too much info on Instagram before quickly deleting it… but not before some eagle-eyed fans had managed to screen grab it.

Yep, according to Jesus Palacios, the girl’ new single will be called ‘Shout Out To My Ex’ – and the man himself bears a passing resemblance to a certain Mr Malik… so could this be the break up song we’ve been waiting for?

The girls have previously hinted that their next album will be about love – and that it would be “pretty obvious” who the tracks were about – and we already can’t wait!

But what do you think about this alleged new artwork?
