Brit singer Leigh-Anne Pinnock has spoken highly of how supportive Wolverhampton-born footballer fiance Andre Gray has been from the time they met.

According to UK's entertainment website, Female First, the Little Mix singer revealed that the couple always spoke openly about their experiences of racism. And how she loves how pro-black he is. "Andre is like my backbone. If I didn't have someone like that through this experience, I don't know what I would have done. We've always had amazing talks about [experiencing racism], from when we've met. I love how pro-black he is. It's inspiring for me," said Pinnock.

Meanwhile, Pinnock feels being black is her power. "There's only so much you can take of feeling like you are the invisible one, or you're being overlooked. Being black is my power. There had to come a point where I see this as my power and I now do," she explained.
