Leigh-Anne Pinnock has spoken candidly about her marriage to Andre Gray – and the perils of a long-distance romance.
The Little Mix star, 32, appeared on the Table Manners podcast and admitted how ”hard” it is for the pair, with Pinnock living in the UK and Gray, 32, in Saudi Arabia as he plays for the Al-Riyadh club.
The British singer revealed the pair typically only see each other “two days a month”.
