Leigh-Anne Pinnock has thrilled fans by confirming that a Little Mix reunion is a certainty. According to music-news.com, while speaking on Heart Breakfast this Friday, the singer insisted the Brit Award-winning group will “100 per cent” return to the stage.
The girl group, consisting of Pinnock, Perrie Edwards and Jade Thirlwall, began an indefinite hiatus in 2022 to pursue solo projects. However, Leigh-Anne believes their impact on pop music makes a comeback inevitable.
“How could we not? We are at that legacy point now,” she told hosts JK and Kelly Brook. “I think so many people would be gagging for that.”
While the desire to reunite is shared by all three members, the “Black Magic” singer noted that timing is the only hurdle. The trio are currently focused on their individual careers, with Leigh-Anne releasing her debut solo album, My Ego Told Me To, this week. “We are all still exploring our individuality and going on our own journeys,” she explained. “We need time for that.”
The singer also touched on the group’s relationship with former member Jesy Nelson, who departed in 2020. Leigh-Anne revealed that she, Perrie, and Jade reached out to Jesy following the news that her twin daughters were diagnosed with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA).
“It’s just devastating,” Leigh-Anne said, praising Jesy’s bravery. “We’ve all reached out to her. Obviously, me, Perrie, and Jade remain super close as well.”
