Saturdays' Mollie King not moving to India with boyfriend David Gandy

The Saturdays singer Mollie King has laughed off reports that she will relocate to India with her boyfriend David Gandy.
Rumours that the 'All Fired Up' singer was set to leave the UK emerged when her model lover revealed a desire to invest in property abroad.
"My parents called me the morning the story broke and asked me when I was going to tell them!" King told The Mirror. "The truth is I'm such a homebody.
"Me leaving home and moving 20 minutes away from my mum was far enough to be honest. So the thought of going any further is very unlikely.
"I woke up to loads of messages on the phone from people saying, 'OMG, what is this about you moving to India?'... all my Twitter feed said was, 'Please don't move to India, we'll miss you!' I'll blame David for that one as it definitely wasn't me who said anything!"
King explained that she had become more appreciative of family and loved ones after two momentous events in the past year - bandmate Una Healy's pregnancy and the death of her godmother due to cancer.
"Una's really excited about becoming a mum and we can't wait to be aunties. We're all like, 'Come on Una, push it out'," she said. "It hasn't had a knock-on effect in terms of being broody, although we are looking forward to meeting her."
On the passing of her family friend, she added: "It is one of those things that was such a horrible experience for the whole family and will change everybody's lives.
"It's my biggest fear that someone close to me like my mum or dad should get ill... I think until you know somebody very close who it happens to, you think it's something that will never happen to you. So when it actually does, you realise no-one is invincible."
King began dating Gandy back in April 2011.
