Singer Perrie Edwards has opened up about her fear of being alone and her struggle to get on to a train to visit footballer boyfriend Alex-Oxlade Chamberlain in Manchester.

"Even now, my boyfriend lives in Manchester because he plays for Liverpool so when he moved, it was c''p and then once this started happening. I still can't get the train on my own, it freaks me out and makes me feel really claustrophobic. I feel uneasy," she told Glamour magazine.
