'Little Mix' singer Perrie Edwards engaged to Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain

Perrie Edwards and footballer Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are engaged to be married.

The Little Mix singer and the professional football player announced the news on Saturday, June 18.

Edwards shared a series of photos of the romantic beach proposal, and a first look at her engagement ring on Instagram. "Last night the love of my life got down on one knee and I said... YES!" she wrote, tagging Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain on the post.

Little Mix bandmates Jade Thirlwall and LeighAnne Pinnock were among the many friends who left congratulatory messages for the announcement. Thirlwall left a comment of happy emojis, while Pinnock said, "Best news! So happy for you both."

Billboard reported that the new trio's latest release was Between Us—a stacked greatest-hits project, which dropped in November. In December, they said they had plans to take a little break after their spring tour, but that they'd be back: "Little Mix are here to stay."

Meanwhile, Edwards and Oxlade-Chamberlain are parents to a baby named Axel, who was born on August 21, 2021. (ANI)
