Jamie Miller Holds UK No. 1 for a Second Week With “Babydoll”

Share
Welsh singer Jamie Miller

Jamie Miller has remained at No. 1 on the UK’s Official Singles Chart for a second consecutive week with “Babydoll”. In the October 30, 2026 results, the song’s consumption rose 46.88% to 69,840 equivalent units. The new lead follows the previous week’s milestone, when the Welsh singer reached the top of the chart for the first time in his career with the same recording.

Jamie Miller remains at the top of the British singles chart for a second consecutive week. “Babydoll” holds No. 1 in the results announced on Friday, October 30, extending the breakthrough achieved seven days earlier. The chart covers October 30 to November 5, 2026, and takes the song to ten weeks on the listing. The continued lead therefore adds another stage to a climb already underway before its first week at the summit.

The notable detail is not only the unchanged position. Weekly consumption of “Babydoll” increased by 46.88% to 69,840 equivalent units, according to music-market figures. Digital sales account for 9,547 of those units, while 60,293 derive from streams converted into equivalent units. The total does not mean that 69,840 people bought the song, nor does it represent that number of individual audio plays on streaming services.



The distinction matters when interpreting the rise. Sales and streaming-equivalent units describe components brought together under chart rules. They are not interchangeable raw counts of purchases and listens. Jamie Miller’s second week at No. 1 is accompanied by stronger combined consumption, rather than simply the absence of another release capable of overtaking an otherwise unchanged result. The reported increase supplies the clearest measure of that week-on-week improvement.

On October 23, the singer first reached No. 1 after moving up from second place and displacing Taylor Swift’s “Patient Zero”. Seven days later, “Babydoll” had grown substantially rather than falling back. Its second lead therefore continues a result that had already marked the first UK chart-topper of his career. The historical significance of the original ascent and the newer weekly gain are related but separate developments.

Tate McRae’s “Housewife” remains second. It had entered directly at No. 2 the previous week and retains what is so far her highest UK position. Ashe’s “Stop The Wedding” moves from fourth to third, passing Olivia Rodrigo and Chappell Roan’s “Expectations”, which slips to No. 4. The first two places stay fixed while the main movement within that part of the chart takes place immediately below them.

Sienna Spiro’s “Great Expectation” completes the Top Five in fifth place. Jamie Miller also leads the separate British streaming and song-sales charts that week. Those component charts have their own calculation rules and should not be confused with the overall Official Singles Chart. Their results describe additional aspects of the recording’s performance rather than supplying extra units to be added to the combined total already reported.

Miller was born in Cardiff, giving his first No. 1 on October 23 particular significance within Welsh music history. He was the first Welsh artist to top the UK singles chart since Sian Evans featured on DJ Fresh’s “Louder” in 2011. Among Welsh male solo artists, he was the first since Shakin’ Stevens reached the summit with “Merry Christmas Everyone” in 1985.

Those comparisons concern the initial week at the top, rather than a newly created historical distinction on October 30. The latest development is that “Babydoll” retained its position and improved its consumption. Jamie Miller had already developed an audience through earlier releases, but this is his first UK Top 10 single as well as his first No. 1, placing the ongoing run within his own recording career.

The song combines contemporary pop with soul and R&B influences. Guitar, keyboards and brass give the recording a more retro colour than a purely electronic pop production. Miller wrote it with Hayley Warner and Michael Blum, who also produced it. The recording includes musicians on drums, saxophone and trumpet, supplying instrumental detail behind the track whose sales and listening now support the continuing chart lead.

The original release arrived in August, followed by a version featuring actor and singer Antonio Cipriano. Different editions contributed to its overall commercial presence, with digital sales playing a notable role during the latest leading week. The climb began earlier, however: the song moved progressively through the chart during September before reaching the summit in late October. Its No. 1 run followed that earlier development rather than an immediate top-place debut.

The reach of “Babydoll” also extends beyond Britain. It has peaked at No. 70 on the US Billboard Hot 100, a separate market with its own ranking rules. That result does not alter the principal development in the latest British chart: Jamie Miller’s biggest success remains at the summit in the country where he was born, with a larger combined weekly total than when it first reached No. 1.

The following weekly result will determine how long the lead continues. For now, October 30 records two consecutive No. 1 weeks, a 46.88% increase in consumption and 69,840 equivalent units. Behind “Babydoll” are Tate McRae’s “Housewife” and Ashe’s “Stop The Wedding”, while Miller extends the first chart-topping run of his career with a stronger second week rather than surrendering the position after seven days.
