Little Mix's Leigh-Anne Pinnock announces she's pregnant as she debuts bump in sweet video
Little Mix's Leigh-Anne Pinnock has joyfully announced her pregnancy, revealing the news with a video featuring her hand resting on her baby bump. The star shared the update on Instagram, stating, "As one chapter ends, another begins," and included the pregnant woman emoji in her post on July 8, 2026, at 5:43 PM, with an update at 6:09 PM.
The 34-year-old singer posted a video from a recording studio, where she wore a shirt tied above her tummy, with a close-up shot showing her hand on her baby bump. The post was set to Leigh-Anne's new song "Heaven," featuring the lyrics: "All I need's right here."
Bandmate Perrie Edwards was quick to congratulate her, commenting with four love-heart eyes emojis, while Fleur East added, "Ahhhhh! Amazing! Congratulations."
Leigh-Anne is already a mother to twin daughters with her husband, footballer Andre Gray, whom she married in 2023. Their twins were born in August 2021, and the couple has chosen to keep their children's names and faces out of the public eye to protect their privacy.
Earlier this year, Leigh-Anne explained her decision, saying, "I remember when they were born, I was going through this online hate thing and really seeing the toxicity of social media. I mean, I probably would've still decided to not show their faces anyway, but that just kind of confirmed it for me. I want them to be able to make that decision." She further stated, "I want them to be able to [choose] if they want to be famous or not, because once they're out there, they're out there and I think that's such a big thing."
Leigh-Anne's happy news follows just weeks after her bandmate Perrie and Celtic midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain exchanged vows at the Igreja Matriz de Estoi church in Estoi, Faro, Portugal, in June. The ceremony was attended by approximately 70 friends and family members. Perrie, who owns a holiday home near the church, wore a white lace dress and gold earrings, walking into the church with her father Alexander, followed by her mother Debbie and six bridesmaids in blue silk dresses. After the ceremony, a plume of multicoloured smoke was released as Perrie and Alex left the church hand-in-hand, surrounded by loved ones, before heading to the village square for drinks. Leigh-Anne was present at the wedding, though their other bandmate, Jade Thirlwall, could only attend part of the celebrations due to her performance at Spain's Primavera Sound Festival.
