Girl group Little Mix have spent the past few months working hard on their next record and they have revealed that the Christmas period will be their only time off. 

Speaking to British magazine Star, songstress Leigh-Anne Pinnock explained that it will be great to just relax and have a full day off as that's quite rare these days: "[I'm] 100 per cent [excited for Christmas]. It's time to unwind, leave all your troubles for one day and just have fun and relax."

Member Jesy Nelson added that as soon as the festive period has passed the group will head back into the studio to finish off their third album: "Because straight after Christmas we're back in the studio working on the album."

When asked what they're hoping for under the tree this year, Pinnock admitted that a new computer game would be welcomed: "The Sims! I was obsessed when I was younger and 'The Sims' 4 is out!" Jade Thirlwall added: "Anything to do with Disney. I'm a huge Disney fan!"
