'She converted me' - Liverpool midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain on life in lockdown with Perrie Edwards

Liverpool midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has outlined what life is like in lockdown with popstar girlfriend Perrie Edwards.

The duo have appeared on social media a number of times since the United Kingdom went into self isolation due to the threat of coronavirus, keeping their fans' spirits up with a number of fun videos.

Oxlade-Chamberlain reserved special praise for his girlfriend on in a Instagram live Q&A with Colossal Sports Management.

He said: "She has been tremendous during quarantine. She's proper housewifey. She's been cleaning up, cooking every day. The meals have been unbelievable. She doesn't get annoyed at me playing the Playstation. She's top I love her."

And the 26-year-old didn't stop there, going on to praise the Little Mix star's cooking and admitting she's converted him to Sunday roasts.

He added: "She made a chorizo pasta the other day and it was banging. Also, like Sunday dinner, I'm not a Sunday dinner sort of person but she made it and she converted me."

Last week week, Perrie opened up on life in self-isolation with her footballer boyfriend.

She told Kiss Breakfast: "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'."

Asked whether the pair had rowed with one another, she added: "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!'"
