The singer, 32, who is set to release her debut solo EP, admitted ‘I can’t do it anymore’ while discussing the difficulties of long-distance romance.
Leigh-Anne and Andre, who married last summer, only see each other around two days each month due to his gruelling football schedule and her work commitments.
The former Little Mix star revealed she has to be in the UK due to working on her new music while also raising their twins, two.
Leigh-Anne explained: ‘We have a long distance relationship. He lives in Saudi, he plays football there.

‘So for the last two years we’ve been apart, basically, seeing each other for maybe two days a month. It’s been hell to be honest.’
When asked if he is likely to move away again when his current work contract ends, Leigh-Anne confessed: ‘I can’t do it anymore. I can’t do it. I think we have to wait and see.’
Speaking on the Table Manners podcast, Leigh-Anne was questioned on if she resents Andre for living so far away while she cares for their children.Â
She said: ‘I try not to because I know what he’s doing it for, he’s doing it for us. But it’s so hard though, having two two-and-a-half year olds.’
Speaking about his contract in Saudi Arabia, she continued: ‘It actually ends this summer so he’s home next week. I’m so excited.
‘Then family – valued, beautiful time. But we don’t know [what’s next]. But that’s the thing about being with a footballer, you don’t know where you’re going to be.
‘I can’t move with him anywhere because obviously I can’t have a career where he’s going to go. I have to be local to home.’
Leigh-Anne is set to release her EP, No Hard Feelings, on Friday and she will celebrate the launch with an concert at Lafayette in London on June 11.

When asked why she isn’t releasing a full album, she said: ‘I don’t think I was ready to put an album out.
‘The music I’m trying to do is so different from anything in Little Mix, I think I would have been naïve to think everybody would come along with me.
‘I really do feel like I’m trying to build a fan base and build something new.
‘I think this EP for me is about solidifying who I am as an artist and letting people know who Leigh-Anne is.’
It comes after Leigh-Anne dropped her fourth single Forbidden Fruit earlier this month and in its lyrics, hinted that she cheated on her ex to get with Andre.
Forbidden Fruit follows Stealin’ Love as the second single from her upcoming debut EP, No Hard Feelings.
Leigh-Anne described the song as having ‘sweaty, sultry, reggae dance vibes’ and revealed it tells the story of when she and Andre first met.
And, if Forbidden Fruit’s lyrics are anything to go by, Leigh-Anne was less than faithful to her ex on her journey to forever with Andre.
