Liam Payne and Cheryl's relationship was at the centre of attention when they first got together after he launched his solo career.

Liam Payne praised Cheryl for making his 'dreams come true' in an emotional public statement a year after they started dating. The overwhelmed One Direction star made the admission to the world shortly after Cheryl gave birth to their son Bear in an adoring tribute to them both.

"I'm incredibly happy to welcome our new baby boy into the world, it's a moment that I will never forget for the rest of my life and my favourite memory I have so far."
