Leigh-Anne Pinnock was the first of the current Little Mix girls to release solo music after the band's hiatus started back in May 2022. Now, following the release of her debut solo song 'Don't Say Love', and several other songs, she's released her EP 'No Hard Feelings' featuring five songs, telling her fans: 'They represent me to the fullest and something in me said they needed to be heard in this way.'

Opening up about her EP, chatting to KISS' Ellie Prohan, Leigh-Anne explained why it was important for her to open up: "Do you know what? To be honest, I'm taking the positives away from it (the EP), for me, it's actually been a healing process.

"I actually feel better for it. I feel better now than I did before anybody knew any of this stuff, and that's my honest... That's being honest.

"I think there was, like, a part of me that felt embarrassed. Like, I wouldn't even have these conversations with my close friends about stuff with my relationship, because I don't know, like, it's this sort of thing that you want to, like, keep and protect. So, yeah, I just did a whole EP about it, and now the whole world knows, but, you know."

Leigh-Anne then had us all in tears as she spoke about her husband Andre Gray, who she married in a beautiful Caribbean ceremony, in June 2023.

Explaining Andre's relationship with the couple's twin girls, Leigh-Anne said: "My husband never known how to be a dad, and like when I see him with my twins, I'm like, how do you even know to be so incredible? Like, because he never he never had that and like, I think I give him a lot of grace sometimes, but when I see how it is with them, it's like aww."

She later explained her reasons for opening up in her music, saying: 'Like, when I go into a studio like I... (say) ‘OK. How do you feel Leigh-Anne?' Blurgh!

"Well, like I'll tell you how I feel and I have to put that in a song. You know, like I just want to write about things that are happening to me in my experiences, and that was something that was just weighing on me, and that that was all I wanted to talk about."

Leigh-Anne released 'No Hard Feelings' back in May, but has promised something exciting in the summer. While we're waiting for new solo music from Leigh-Anne, her bandmate Perrie Edwards has just released her second solo song called 'Tears', and Jade Thirlwall has a now announced a release date for her long awaited debut solo release called 'Angel of My Dreams'.
