Leigh-Anne Pinnock has revealed she is taking time away from social media following the devastating loss of her beloved dogs, who both passed away within weeks of each other.
The Little Mix star opened up to fans in an emotional Instagram post, sharing that she is giving herself permission to grieve and process the overwhelming emotions she’s been facing in recent weeks. The singer, who is also a mum to twin daughters with husband Andre Gray, accompanied her post with tender photos of her children, offering a rare glimpse into her private family life.
“Life is very much lifing right now so it made sense to sod off for a bit… giving myself time and space and just feeling every emotion,” Leigh-Anne wrote.
While she didn’t go into detail about the circumstances of her dogs’ deaths, it’s clear that the loss has hit her hard. Her heartfelt message struck a chord with fans, many of whom flooded the comments with support and sympathy, praising the singer for her honesty and vulnerability.
In her post, the 32-year-old reflected on the pressure to always appear strong, particularly as someone in the public eye. “Sometimes you feel like you have to always be the strong and positive one to hold everything together, but it can be exhausting,” she admitted.
Leigh-Anne has been open in the past about balancing the demands of her career with her family life and mental health, and her latest message is a powerful reminder of the importance of taking a step back when needed.
The pop star has had a whirlwind few years, becoming a mother of two, launching her solo music career, and continuing her work as an advocate for racial equality. But in this moment, she’s choosing to prioritise healing, and fans are right behind her.
There’s been no word on when she plans to return to the spotlight, but Leigh-Anne’s message was clear: right now, she’s focusing on family, self-care, and allowing herself to fully feel the grief of losing two treasured companions.
As she takes this well-earned break, fans will no doubt be sending love and support her way, and waiting patiently for her return when she’s ready.
