Little Mix star Leigh-Anne Pinnock has marked the first birthday of her adorable twins with fiancé Andre Gray by sharing a collection of never-before-seen photos. Leigh-Anne, 30, celebrated the milestone by opening up her photo album as she happily reflected.

The doting mum, who hasn't revealed her babies' names or their genders, posted pictures from her labour as well as snaps of herself breastfeeding the tots as she told her Instagram followers: "My life has a whole new meaning."

In one photo singer Leigh-Anne blew a kiss to the camera as she lay in her hospital bed in a gown with her footballer beau, 31, by her side. Referring to their twins as their 'cubbies' the Black Magic and Wings hitmaker said she was "filled with so much emotion."

"I never knew how this was going to change my life, being a mum to two incredible little bubbas." Leigh-Anne added: "I am so so grateful and so lucky that I get to wake up to their smiles every morning . My life has a whole new meaning. I have been given a miracle and I will never have the words to express how thankful I am for it."

Fans and famous friends rushed to comment on the sweet post including proud dad Andre who wrote: "We are so lucky." He messaged: "'Never be able to repay you for giving me them, cant thank you enough for that and for being the most incredible mother to my babies, we are so lucky."
