I’m an ex-Premier League ace with £18m in career earnings – I married Little Mix star and started a new life in Greece
FORMER Premier League star Andre Gray has swapped London for Greece - but had to leave behind his Little Mix star wife.
Leigh-Anne Pinnock is one-third of the pop group and has recently launched her solo career.
And her busy schedule meant she was unable to join husband Gray when he joined Aris Thessaloniki last summer.
The striker signed for the Greek side on a free transfer following his release from Watford.
Gray, 32, spent five years at the Hornets and scored 21 goals in 126 games for the club, with his last season spent on loan at QPR in the Championship.
He established himself in the top flight with Burnley initially, having fired them to promotion with 23 Championship goals in 2015-16.

Gray enjoyed a meteoric rise from the National League to the Prem in just two years and with it came a handsome fortune.
The former Luton and Brentford star is believed to have earned £18million during his career - a good return for a player released by Shrewsbury at the age of 19.
He began dating Pinnock in 2016 and the couple got married in Jamaica this summer following a three-year engagement.
The happy couple said 'I do' in front of friends and family, including Little Mix pal Jade Thirlwall.
