LITTLE Mix singer Leigh-Anne Pinnock has announced a HUGE new career move, just days after Jesy Nelson’s single release.
The mother-of-two took to her Instagram to reveal she has been busy behind the scenes working on a project that is set to be released to her fans later this year.
Leigh-Anne, 31, looked casual in her dressing gown as she sipped on a cup of tea and held up her new memoir, titled BELIEVE.
The star glowed as she advertised her new book to her fans, which she revealed is due to hit shelves in October.
Looking stunning with minimal make-up, and letting her natural curls flow down her back, she told fans she was “so excited” to release it.
“I’m so excited to announce BELIEVE – my first ever memoir – out October 26, 2023 and available to pre-order now,” she penned.
“Ever since we won The X Factor back in 2011, I feel like I’ve been in a whirlwind. I’ve had some life-changing moments that up until now, I’ve never really had the chance to process.
“Maya Angelou once said: ‘You can’t really know where you are going until you know where you have been.’
“So with this in mind and before I embark on this new journey, I want to respect my past; my life, my heritage, family, identity and most importantly, embracing & believing in my own power.”
Her friends and fans flooded the comments section of the post to congratulate her, and gush over the new release.
“Woohoo,” wrote her bandmate Perrie Edwards, alongside a clapping emoji, while Jade Thirlwall replied with a series of emojis.
“Leigh-Anne, I’m so happy for you!” a fan said, while a second agreed: “SO PROUD OF You. Cannot wait to read this!”
It comes just days after former Little Mix bandmate Jesy Nelson released her latest solo single.
Jesy, who first found fame with her bandmates on Simon Cowell’s The X Factor in 2011, stepped away from the group two years ago.
The star revealed she wanted to focus on her mental wellbeing – but the exit prompted a barrage of online abuse and an uncomfortable fall out with the other three members.
Last week, the star released her latest solo single, Bad Thing, which tackles issues including mental health and domestic violence.
After the release, Jesy revealed she hasn’t spoken to her former pals since the split more than two years ago.
She explains: “No, we haven’t talked since then. Never say never, but I honestly wish them the best on their solo journeys now, which is so exciting.”
