Little Mix star Leigh-Anne Pinnock is starting a solo career after signing a new deal with a PR agency, but has said she will continue her "commitments" with the band.
The 29-year-old singer has inked a new deal with entertainment PR agency Satellite 414, just three months after her bandmate Jesy Nelson announced she was leaving the group after nine years.
The agency confirmed the news on Twitter and welcomed the chart-topper to their talent roster "for solo projects across Music, Film and TV".
The post read: "Huge welcome to Leigh-Anne Pinnock as she joins our SATELLITE414 and Satellite Screen rosters for solo projects across Music, Film and TV."
