Little Mix star Perrie Edwards got engaged to her footballer beau Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain in June 2022 and has gradually opened up about her wedding plans.
Almost two years on from her engagement, Perrie Edwards has shared some insight into her wedding plans with football star Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, who now plays for Beşiktaş in Turkey.
The Little Mix star got engaged to her beau in June 2022 after six years together - and 10 months after they welcomed their baby boy Axel.
Alex popped the question during a luxury getaway and the ‘Sweet Melody’ hitmaker has revealed that she’s on her way to planning her wedding.
Despite it being two years since the pair got engaged, they have yet to settle on a date for their wedding. But that doesn't mean planning isn't underway.
Speaking to Grazia in 2023, the mum-of-one said that Alex was keen to lock in plans about their special day as she admitted she’s finally got some details ironed out.
“There’s so much going on right now,” explained Perrie, “I’m in the studio, whilst also having my fiancée being like, ‘When are we going to start planning the wedding?’
“Again, it’s like starting the business! Where do you even start with a wedding? It’s a lot. We spoke about it whilst we were on holiday, and I’ve got a really good idea of what I want now.”
Perrie and Alex began dating in 2016 but went public with their romance the following year.
They welcomed their first baby boy in August 2021, just days apart from Perrie’s bandmate Leigh-Anne Pinnock who welcomed her twins with her fiancé Andre Gray.
Following Little Mix’s hiatus in December 2021, the girls have been working on solo music with both Perrie and Leigh-Anne dropping solo tracks in 2023.
“My label have told me to just go with the flow and enjoy discovering what my sound is going to be,” said Perrie, “The fact there’s no deadline in my life just makes me the happiest person. I feel so lucky to just be having fun.”
Perrie's debut solo single 'Forget About Us' dropped on the 12th of April 2024.
