Despite tying the knot in June and being together since 2016, their initial marital year has thrown them some curveballs, especially since Andre transferred to Saudi Pro League team Al-Riyadh last September while Leigh-Anne stayed back in the UK. Having risen through teams like Shrewsbury Town, Luton, Brentford, Burnley, and Watford, Andre had most of his career rooted in England until a stint in Greece with Aris Saloniki in July 2022.
Eventually, at 33 years old, he then made the bold move to Al-Riyadh. While Leigh-Anne could've followed many WAGs by moving to the United Arab Emirates to support her man, she chose to focus on her burgeoning solo music career post- Little Mix fame. This tough decision led to them living miles apart, a challenge that Leigh-Anne didn't shy away from discussing.
Speaking about their long-distance love this year, the 32 year old confessed: "We have a long distance relationship. He lives in Saudi, he plays football there. So for the last two years we've been apart, basically, seeing each other for maybe two days a month.
It's been hell to be honest." Andre's stint with Al-Riyadh and a whopping pay.
