Perrie Edwards is reportedly preparing to marry Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain in Portugal over the weekend (13-14.06.26) .
The Little Mix star, 32, accepted a proposal from the footballer in 2022 after five years of dating and she recently revealed she was in the final stages of planning her big day and she recently tried on her wedding dress for the first time - now a new report suggests the couple are flying their friends and family out to the Algarve for an "intimate celebration".
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Perrie has been planning their big day for some time and now she cannot wait for it to come ...
"She is flying to the Algarve with Alex, along with their family and closest friends. It is a very intimate celebration. It is everything Perrie and Alex have ever wanted."
Last month Perrie - who is mother to son Axel, four, and daughter Alanis, four months, with Alex - confirmed her wedding was approaching and she's been very busy getting everything organised.
She told 1883 Magazine: "There’s so much in both my personal and professional life [coming up] – my wedding! I tried on the dress the other day and I’m so happy with it."
She added: "It’s so exciting, I can’t wait ... I feel very fulfilled in my life right now, and I’m very happy with the balance. But yeah, a lot is going on, babies, dogs, planning my wedding."
Last year, Perrie admitted the couple booked a venue for 2026 but they ended up cancelling because they had second thoughts and decided it wasn't right.
She told Glamour magazine: "We did have it planned, and I booked a venue for next year. I viewed in March, viewed it again in June, and I hated it.
"So now we're all in a bit of a frenzy mare. My mam's stressed. We're all stressed.
"Because I want to get married, but I don't know where now. I haven't even sent out 'save the dates'. But I do really want to get married soon. I can't wait to get married."
In the interview, Perrie also talked about her relationship with Alex and credited him with being a huge support after they lost two babies.
She said: "We are very lucky to have each other. We love each other so much. He was just so worried about me, and I think he felt the lack of control, like there was nothing he could really do.
"But him just being there, and being by my side through the whole thing, just made it so much better. I kept asking him: 'Are you okay?', and he's like: 'It's not about me,' and I'm like: 'Yes it is though'."
