The singer revealed this during a recent episode of The Jonathan Ross Show.
Alex is currently signed to Turkish football team Süper Lig club Beşiktaş, which means he lives in Turkey – and Perrie finds it “hard.”
She confided in Jonathan, saying, “I can’t lie, it is hard.”
“When he was playing for Liverpool and based in Manchester, it was so easy to do the back and forth but Turkey is a little bit further and he doesn’t get a lot of time off.
“I’m trying to launch a solo career whilst having a two-year-old so it is a lot to juggle but we make it work for the ones we love don’t we?”
The singer added, “We’ve never lived together anyway. The whole eight years we’ve been in a relationship we’ve never actually lived together.”
Perrie and Alex confirmed their relationship in 2017, and four years later, they welcomed Axel into the world.
The couple got engaged in 2022, but they are yet to confirm whether a date has been set for their wedding.
Despite living thousands of miles apart, Perrie says they rarely row.
She made the admission while talking to Jonathan about her solo music. Perrie has co-written a song with Brit Awards winner RAYE, which is about her relationship.
Perrie said: “Full disclosure, me and my partner don’t argue, we’re very laid back and very chilled.
“But at the same time, I can be a little bit of a petty b**** and I can’t help it.
I don’t know whether it’s my star sign – cancer. I’m very stubborn, I’m very emotional but not in the best way.
“I will hold a grudge for anything he might say. I just can’t help the way I am, I’m just like that but we just started writing a song about it and I just thought the lyrics were super relatable.”
Until now, Perrie was the only member of Little Mix to fully share her own solo music with fans.
But the Geordie’s debut solo single Forget About Us is released on Friday (April 12) and it comes two years after the girl band split.
Jonathan will be seen asking Perrie if there is any chance of Little Mix reuniting during his ITV chat show.
.
Not ruling out a reunion, she replies: “I’d definitely never say never. We just love each other so much. We thought we’d been together for 12 years since we were babies and we just wanted to do our own thing and see what happens. We’d definitely love to get back together in the future.”

Little Mix’s Perrie Edwards reveals she is also expecting
Perrie Edwards – “So happy to be on this wild journey with my soulmate”
It’s such exciting news from Perrie Edwards, isn’t it? She announced her pregnancy with footballer partner Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain on Instagram, sharing a heartwarming photo of the two of them cradling her baby bump. It’s quite a wonderful coincidence that her announcement came just six days after her bandmate Leigh-Anne Pinnock shared her own pregnancy news. It seems like there’s a lot of joy and anticipation in the air for the Little Mix family!
“So happy to be on this wild journey with my soulmate,” wrote the 27-year-old.
“Me + Him = You 🌎♥️
“We can’t wait to meet you baby Ox!”
Edwards and Oxlade-Chamberlain have been together since early 2017.
Congratulating the couple, Pinnock wrote: “Arghhhhhhhh so so so happy for you both. And so bloody happy we get to go on this journey together! Love you so much.”
Little Mix’s Jade Thirlwall also sent her best wishes, describing herself as “the luckiest auntie”.
It’s nice to see Jesy Nelson showing her support for her former bandmate, Jesy Nelson, by liking Perrie Edwards’ pregnancy announcement post. Despite her departure from the group in December, it’s clear that there’s still a bond between them, and it’s heartening to witness their continued camaraderie.
