Little Mix's Perrie Edwards on life in lockdown with boyfriend Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain

Perrie Edwards has opened up about what she has been up to while self-isolating.

The Little Mix singer and her boyfriend Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain have opted to isolate in London amid the coronavirus outbreak.

The Liverpool Echo reports the pair decided to stay in the capital after the Premier League season was suspended until at least April 30.

Speaking to Kiss radio, Perrie said: "I have a house – well, my boyfriend and I have a house in Manchester and a house in London, so we were originally in Manchester together and then we decided to come to London.

"I kind of wish we’d stayed in Manchester rather than London ‘cos there’s more to do there, like in his house.

"But we have got a lovely house in London with a little garden so Hatchi’s alright. It’s just weird, isn’t it? Not being able to leave the house, because I have been isolating for ages now."

Asked what she has been up to while of precautionary self-isolation, Perrie told: "I haven’t been doing any exercise! I’ve been watching loads of Netflix, I started Money Heist which is unreal.

"I’ve been singing a little bit, I’ve been cooking a lot because my boyfriend is never full, like try isolating with an athlete!

"Trying to ration your food and every five seconds 'I’m hungry! I’m hungry again. Can I have some food now?' I’m like, seriously?

"I’ve been baking, which I never do. I baked a banana bread cake the other day.

"It’s the best cake nobody will ever be able to taste. We were FaceTiming all our family like 'if only you could taste this right now'.

A video shared to popular app TikTok earlier this month, which showed the couple dancing in unison, quickly went viral.

In response to the clip, Perrie added: "And TikToking – I absolutely love TikTok, I can’t believe I haven’t had it until now."

The popstar was also asked whether the pair had had any rows during isolation. The 26-year-old said: "I’m probably this close to burning, or just cutting straight through the wire of the PlayStation.

"There’s going to be a situation here.

"Honestly, even just sat in the lounge trying to Netflix and chill there’s just 'It’s behind you mate behind you urghhh'.

"I’m like 'Stop with the PlayStation for two seconds!'"

Little Mix are set to release their new single entitled Break Up Song this Friday.
