It's been made no secret that Little Mix star Perrie Edwards is dating Arsenal and England footballer Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, and now the pair have shared a photo of themselves on Instagram.

Despite playing around with Snapchat's popular filters, this is the first time the pair have shared a snap of themselves together on the photo sharing site.

Alex shared the snap of the pair looking very glamorous before they headed off to The BRIT Awards on Wednesday night.

Wearing a cut out black dress, Perrie stood next to her boyfriend who wore a slimline black suit.

It seems Alex is clearly very proud of his girlfriend who picked up her first ever BRIT Award along with the other Little Mix girls.

The group saw off tough competition from the likes of ZAYN and Coldplay to take home the BRIT for 'British Single' for their 2016 hit 'Shout Out To My Ex'.

Clearly taken aback by the victory, Perrie, Jade, Leigh-Anne and Jesy seemed very excitable when we caught up with them backstage, and even thanked their exes for making the single possible...

It was a successful night for the girls. Not only did they pick up an award, they also opened the prestigious show with a very fierce performance of 'Shout Out To My Ex'.

Check it out below:

The girls have now made their way back to America to complete their support tour with pop princess Ariana Grande.

Don't panic though! Little Mix will be back in the UK shortly to prepare for their mammoth 'The Glory Day' tour which kicks off in October.
