They look so happy 😍
Last updated 27th Jun 2022
After Little Mix started their hiatus when their 'Confetti' tour ended, many thought we might not hear so much from them, but of course, that's not the case. We've already started to see some solo music activity from Leigh-Anne Pinnock and she's also shared some very cute pics of her twins with fiancé Andre Gray.
Taking to Instagram to celebrate Andre's birthday, Leigh-Anne posted two adorable pics of the couple with their young twins saying: 'Happy Birthday Super Dad! You were born to do this ❤️ @andregray_'.
The first photo shows the pair holding their toddlers wearing matching white vests under a palm tree, while the second pic shows them wearing matching nappies lying on Andre's chest.
And that wasn't all, fans were treated to another pic of the babies in Leigh-Anne's Instagram Story, which appeared to be taken around the same time as the first pic, with Leigh-Anne and Andre holding the babies in the air. Please post some more pics Leigh-Anne! 🙏
Fans have yet to see the twins' faces, find out their gender or their names, but just last month, towards the end of the 'Confetti' tour, Leigh-Anne shared another adorable photo of the family of four. The kids were looking great in Little Mix hoodies, while Leigh-Anne and Andre were beaming backstage with their little ones.
