Leigh-Anne Pinnock wows in a racy black dress as she leads the glamour with husband Andre Gray at MOBO Awards after opening up on his ‘betrayal’

Leigh-Anne Pinnock led the glamour alongside husband Andre Gray at the MOBO Awards in Manchester on Thursday evening, putting on a united front after she opened up about his ‘betrayal’. 

The former Little Mix star, 34, looked sensational as she joined her footballer partner, also 34, on the red carpet at the Co-op Live Arena. 

Leigh-Anne turned heads in a racy black floor-length dress, complete with mesh panels, daring cut-outs, and a figure-hugging silhouette as she posed up a storm for cameras. 

Letting the dress take centre stage, she accessorised with gold jewellery and styled her dark tresses in a sleek ponytail.

Meanwhile, Andre cut a stylish figure in a black jacket with leather panels and tailored trousers, cosying up to his wife for snaps. 

Also in attendance were Ryley Isaac, Nia Smith, Richard Blackwood, Estelle, Misha B, Stella Quaresma, Renée Downer, Jorja Douglas, Eve, Olivia Dean, Kojey Radical, and Slick Rick.

Leigh-Anne’s appearance at the event comes after she revealed she had been betrayed by her husband. 

The singer tied the knot with her footballer beau Andre in June 2023 after welcoming their twins together in August 2021.

Speaking to Paloma Faith on her Mad Sad Bad podcast, Leigh-Anne said: ‘I went through a bit of a weird time with my husband actually and I think that sort of not being totally honest and losing trust and that kind of betrayal. 

‘I think like heartbreak is wild, like it’s awful and especially someone that you’re so madly in love with and that they can hurt you.’ 

The singer explained how footballer Andre realised he was being ‘selfish’ after he moved abroad to Greece to play for Aris Thessaloniki. 

She continued: ‘Well, I think that person has to want to change and he did. 

‘And I think you can go through things in relationship, but if they aren’t willing to change for you, forget it. 

‘They have to do the work and they have to turn it around because again it’s not you, it’s not on you. 

‘He went to therapy and I think for us what really helped for us, he started playing abroad and he had more time to himself to kind of look and realise that everything that he was doing was not how you make a relationship work, it’s not. It’s selfish.’

She also said the footballer ‘went out of his way’ to change for her, which led to her learning the ‘power of forgiveness’.

When she was asked what she has learnt about heartbreak, Leigh-Anne admitted she was still with the person who broke her heart. 

She said: ‘Some people might say, oh well why are you still with them? or why are you still giving them another chance? I guess that can be seen as a weakness and not putting yourself first but I think only you know what is truly right for you.’  

Leigh-Anne went onto say the couple got through the ‘struggles’ and now they are in a ‘really beautiful place’.

She continued: ‘If that person can really show that they want to change, you cannot change somebody but if they go out of their way to change themselves I really do think that kind of tells you everything you need to know.

‘For me personally I had to go through these struggles and things in our relationship to get to the point where we are now, which is a really beautiful place.’
