She's been around the world more than once since releasing her first single, but this '80s pop icon was closer to home when she dropped on Monday.

She’s been around the world more than once since releasing her first single, but this ’80s pop icon was closer to home when she dropped on Monday.

The iconic Mancun singer looked unrecognizable as she enjoyed shopping on London’s Regent Street with her husband, Ian Devaney, 59.

Spotted at a DJI store, where she was purchasing drones, the 58-year-old looked relaxed in a brown double-breasted jacket.

She paired the blazer with a pair of cuffed blue jeans and lace-up boots before accessorizing it with a gray scarf and dark blue beanie.

Meanwhile, her husband cut a smart, casual figure in a gray jacket and black jumper as they walked hand in hand down the street – but can you guess who she is?

It’s none other than Lisa Stansfield!

The Manchester native was catapulted to stardom with her 1989 hit All Around the World before going on to sell records worth £20 million worldwide.

He has released eight albums, duetting with artists including Queen and George Michael, as well as performing on the soundtracks of iconic films The Bodyguard and Indecent Proposal.

He has won numerous Brit Awards and Ivor Novello Awards and received two Grammy nominations, as well as pursuing acting, appearing in 2008’s The Edge of Love alongside Keira Knightley and the 2014 drama Northern Soul.

All Around The World earned the singer two Grammy nominations and her first solo album, Affection, is her best-selling album to date.

However, he does not have good memories of the song.

Lisa revealed in 2018 that she is “obsessed” by her appearance in the 1989 music video.

Speaking on an episode of Lorraine, the singer confessed that she doesn’t like watching the video again, even though the song is her most successful single to date.

The Search For A Star winner admitted: ‘He had a fat, weird, funny face. It was done in a hurry. And 30 years later, it still haunts me.”

Revealing that she is still grateful for the opportunities she had, she added: “People tell me about my music: ‘It got me through college, it saved my marriage, it helped me come out.'” It’s wonderful to be a part of someone in a big way.”

However, the industry does have a downside, as Lisa admitted that she struggled to cope with fame.

“It got to the point where I couldn’t leave the house or go to the stores, it made me nervous,” she explained. “We (Lisa and her husband Ian Devaney) ended up living in Ireland for 14 years to get away from that.”

Lisa married music producer Ian in New York in 1998 after working together since the mid-1980s.

The couple first met when they were in school and both starred in a school play.

Then, several years later, they met and formed the band Blue Zone with Andy Morris.

The band split up when Lisa went solo, however they continued to work together as Lisa provided vocals and Ian and Andy worked on production.
