Perrie Edwards and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are yet to confirm their romance – but Instagram seems to have other ideas.

The Little Mix star’s latest post to the social media site shows Arsenal footballer Alex laughing whilst sat down next to Perrie’s Pomeranian pup and his pooch at a dinner table.

Why is this post so exciting?

It’s the first time Perrie has shared a pic (which just happens to have been taken inside her home!) of Alex on her Instagram page, and it comes just one week after they started following each other.

Not only that, but it came on the same day Perrie and Alex were snapped at a north London cafe enjoying a low-key dinner together, reports The Sun.



Perrie and Alex are rumoured to have been dating since November, and it’s been reported that they’ve enjoyed a number of top secret dates ever since.

It’s no surprise they might want to keep their budding romance on the down-low, given Perrie’s incredibly high-profile relationship with former One Direction singer Zayn Malik, which ended in the breakdown of their engagement in 2015.

But let’s get one thing straight: don’t go calling Perrie a WAG, okay?

‘Perrie wants to keep her love life private and also doesn’t want to be regarded as a stereotypical football WAG,’ a source told The Sun.

‘It’s early days and they’re still getting to know each other. Alex fully supports her as he too wants to be known as a footballer, not dating a pop star.’

It might be just us but this love story has a significant whiff of another certain girlband member who fell in love with a footballer circa 1997. We’re looking at you, Posh and Becks.

Twenty years later, could history be repeating itself?

Meanwhile, Perrie’s Little Mix bandmates Jade Thirlwall is just as loved up as the blonde beauty seems to be, having posted a number of enviable pictures of a romantic holiday with beau Jed Elliott.

The pair seem to have been enjoying their time in the sun, posting bikini snaps, swimming pool selfies and photos of their stunning surroundings on both of their Instagram pages.

And despite being in X, Jade clearly couldn’t tear herself away from her love of a cuppa’ as they also shared a sweet snap with fans showing them both drinking a nice cup of tea in their private pool at nighttime.
