blabby

Can't keep secrets

Blabby describes someone prone to talking too much, especially about things they shouldn't share.

A blabby person can't keep secrets and tends to gossip or reveal confidential information: Don't tell her anything—she's too blabby.

The word is informal and mildly disparaging, suggesting loose lips rather than malice.
