Perrie Edwards put on a rare loved-up display with her footballer fiancé Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain as they enjoyed a romantic getaway abroad.
The singer, 31, and the professional footballer, both 31, announced their engagement in April 2022 after going public with their relationship in 2017.
And sharing an album of fun snaps to Instagram on Friday, the star looked smitten as they acted playful with one anther while at the dinner table with their son Axel, three.
In the pictures Perrie, looked incredible in an emerald halterneck dress which featured a ruched design around the chest.
Meanwhile Alex cut a more casual display as he stepped out in a white T-shirt and black trousers.
In other snaps, the couple continued to put on a romantic display as Perrie was seen laughing the day away in the sun.
Alongside her holiday snaps, she penned: 'Holibobs'.
Her trip comes after how she told Alex that she loved him for the first time early in their romance.
Appearing on the Capital Evening show with Jimmy Hill, the former Little Mix star revealed how she stumbled over the romantic admission.
She said: 'In my real life I can never say exactly what I mean... but I feel like in my music it's different.
'I remember the first time I told Alex I loved him, I was on a night out with the [Little Mix] girls and they were gearing me up - and for some reason I had a pan, right?
'I had a frying pan because Alex told me he liked pancakes so I went out of my way to buy a pan, but we had promo.
'So I'm on a night out, with a frickin' frying pan thinking, 'I'm gonna make his dreams come true, I'm gonna make him pancakes in the morning.'
The singer went on: 'I remember saying to the girls, 'I think I love him... but I think he loves me too' and the girls were like, "Then just tell him".
'They geared me up within an inch of life and I was raring to go.'
But when it came to the big moment, the singer admitted that she was 'speechless'.
She continued: 'I couldn't find the words, I couldn't articulate myself, I was like panicking... my heartbeat was in my head. And I just went, "I think I'm falling in love with you", so aggressively.'
After managing to get her words out, she revealed that Alex said he was in love with her too.
Perrie released her new single titled You Go Your Way last year.
The pair, who now share three-year-old son Axel, matched on celebrity dating app Raya in November 2014 but went on only a couple of dates before Perrie had to embark on a three-month US tour with Little Mix and Ariana Grande.
Due to go away on tour for several months, and worried about putting pressure on a very new relationship, Perrie suggested to her now fiancé that they should pause their budding romance and go their separate ways.
The song sums up the moment in a relationship where you need to be prepared to let someone go and live their life in the hope that the will one day return.
She explained: 'I told Alex, you go your way and I'll go mine and if it's meant to be we'll find each other again when I am back.
'He wasn't happy this idea and made our relationship official there and then! Fast forward eight years and we are very happy, engaged and have our beautiful son.
'I truly believe if you love something, set it free. If it comes back, it's yours. If not it was never meant to be.'
