LITTLE Mix star Leigh-Anne Pinnock has revealed just how romantic Andre Gray’s proposal really was when he asked her the big question last weekend.
Making an appearance on her bandmate’s new show, Served! With Jade Thirlwall, Leigh-Anne went into detail about how she became engaged during lockdown.
At the beginning of the clip, Jade, 27, says: “Oh look at you, you engaged beautiful woman!” as the camera pans to Leigh-Anne, who still looks like she’s in shock.
Jade continued: “So Leigh-Anne was proposed to yesterday and it’s been a long time coming hasn’t it?”
Laughing, Little Mix star Leigh-Anne replies: “Babe, I know, it really has!”
Guest drag queen on the show, Shea Couleé, then goes on to ask the pop star how Andre proposed.
Leigh-Anne replies: “He basically set up this outdoor cinema, so there was a walkway of fairy lights and candles and I was like, ‘this is a bit much for an anniversary, what’s going on here?’
“So we started watching a film, and then halfway through it cut out and our song started playing, and then there were videos and pictures of us and there was this book on the screen that said, ‘four years and forever counting’, and it kept opening up with pictures of us and stuff.”
Leigh-Anne, 28, continues: “And then it just said, ‘will you marry me?’ and he was on one knee.”
As Shea Couleé admits she’s trying not to cry, Leigh-Anne adds: “I’m crying again,” as Jade asks: “Why do I feel so emotional?”
Sadly, the Little Mix ladies can’t celebrate in person but Jade was keen to have Leigh-Anne on her MTV show, which started on May 28 and sees her join forces with a different drag queen in one almighty fun, colourful and camp cook off.
Of course, Leigh-Anne told Jade the news before she and footballer Andre posted it on social media.
Sharing a couple of snaps from the precious moment, Andre wrote: “Let the caption speak for itself this time. Hasta la muerte.”
Leigh-Anne had earlier paid tribute to her partner as they marked four years together.
Sharing a sweet photo of them kissing on an isolated beach, she gushed: “Happy Anniversary baby… how has 4 years gone so fast!
“All I know is I’m another year more crazy about you. I couldn’t love you harder if I tried .”
