Little Mix singer Leigh-Anne Pinnock will reportedly be one of the guest judges on the upcoming third series of RuPaul's Drag Race UK.

The new series has already been filmed ahead of its premiere on BBC Three later this year, with regular judges RuPaul, Michelle Visage, Alan Carr and Graham Norton all returning alongside a different guest each week.

According to the Daily Star, Pinnock has now followed in the footsteps of her bandmate Jade Thirlwall by appearing on the panel.

"Producers have wanted Leigh-Anne to be a guest judge for a long time, so they were thrilled she was finally able to do it," a source told the newspaper.

"Everything was very hush-hush and she wasn't able to tell many people she was doing it.

"Leigh-Anne is a massive fan of the show, so she was the perfect guest judge. She was in her element. And, of course, the contestants loved getting to meet her."

Recording of the third UK series is thought to have been followed up by the filming of the new international all-stars show.
