Cheryl and Liam Payne will spend Christmas together, the Stack It Up singer has revealed.
Liam opened up about his family’s festive plans and he’s making an effort to see his son over the holidays. Despite their break-up, Liam stressed that he has a strong friendship with Cheryl.
So much so that the pair have put their differences aside to spend Christmas together.
He told This Morning that this is the first year that Bear actually understands what Christmas is so the dad wanted to ensure he didn’t miss out on the milestone.
The Strip That Down singer said, “I’m gonna go down and see Bear and maybe cook a Christmas dinner and just hang out with the family.”
Liam added, “I like to do Sunday roasts, it just brings you back to normality. We’re gonna go down and cook some food and hang out.”
“It’s the first time he really gets Christmas now, and I want to see him actually unwrapping presents this year though," he explained.
"Otherwise it will just be Cheryl by the tree again opening everything,” the dad revealed.
Liam and Cheryl welcomed their son Bear in 2017, but ended their relationship a year after the birth of their baby boy.
“I put it on for bed, sometimes the woman tells him to breathe in and breathe out and he goes, 'ahhh', it's super cute. So I've already got him onto that,” Cheryl said.
The mum has no desire for Bear to become famous. She doesn’t want him to be part of the showbiz world.
She explained why, “You look at every child star and they're all fu**ed up. Name me two who aren't, you'll struggle to find them."
Liam Payne has crushed our hopes of a One Direction reunion (Niall was always our fave anyway)
The singer opened up about the potential reunion and it sounds like the band are nowhere near as close as we were led to believe.
The Strip That Down singer told Jonathan Ross that he can’t see the What Makes You Beautiful singers getting back together for quite some time.
He shared, “All I can say is, through album cycles and single cycles, I see everybody putting songs out at the moment, I don’t think for at least the next two years it’s going to happen.”
When asked if former member Zayn Malik would return, Liam stressed, “I don’t think that’ll ever happen. When he left, it wasn’t on great terms so I don’t feel like it’s a thing.”
The singer said there is no point in his former band member returning if he isn’t happy:
“If he didn’t want to be here, he shouldn’t be here, which is fine. Like I say, good for him, he’s gone off and is doing his own thing and he’s doing really well so I don’t want to mess with his stuff. We did a whole stadium tour without him so I feel like it’s fine.”
Liam admitted that he hasn’t spoken to Zayn since he left the band and he has very little contact with Harry Styles. However, he remains close with bandmate Louis Tomlinson.
He revealed, “I feel like me and Louis always had the most connection through everything. There was a point where me and Louis did not get on at all, we absolutely hated each other.
“He has been really great for the last few years. It’s nice having a brother that you can lean on who knows exactly what you’ve been through,” Liam added.
Our dreams have been crushed. Would you like to see One Direction together again?
Harry Styles has one of the most famous head of hair in the world, so he's probably insured it for a time where he has a dodgy haircut.
The latest change to the singer's locks has somehow shut down the internet, who are divided on whether he pulls off his new (Harry) Style.
He already dropped several bombshells on his fans last week with his Rolling Stone September cover story (sex, mushrooms, One Direction, celebrity friends- you name it) but he's just warming up.
The 25-year-old heartthrob chopped off his luscious locks and is sporting a much shorter hairstyle, featuring BANGS *gasp*. His fans have lost the ability to breathe.
He debuted the new look while taking photos with fans in Italy, and one Twitter user shared an image of her dad meeting the former One Direction star.
While some are arguing that he resembles ex-bandmate Louis Tomlinson, we believe he's now mirroring Charlie Heaton's Stranger Things character, Jonathan Byers.

One fan exclaimed; "Okay but can someone tell me when the f**k Harry Styles cut his hair like, it was so short? How did he Jonathan Byers his hair in like a week."
As the internet debated on whether or not to support the haircut, another pointed out;
"Today I learnt that people will genuinely unstan Harry Styles for styling his hair differently..don't let the door hit y'all on the way out luvs." LET THE BOY LIVE.
The chap could shave his head and superglue feathers onto his scalp and he'd probably still look hotter than climate change.
As one fan eloquently put it, "the fact that Harry always looks hot regardless of what he wears/how he styles his hair amazes me. He really is THAT bitch." Lizzo would approve.
He cut off his ponytail for a good cause in 2015, donating his hair to the British charity Little Princess Trust to provide wigs made from real hair for children who have experienced hair loss.
One Direction swiftly became one of the biggest boy bands of all time following their stint on The X Factor. Niall Horan, Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Liam Payne and Zayn Malik lives were transformed overnight.
Fans followed them everywhere they went, their songs took over the charts and their names were known all across the globe.
They were living the dream, but former member Liam Payne has now revealed it wasn’t all it fun and games.
In an interview withMen’s Health, the Strip That Down singer said he had to drink to cope with the sheer level of fame they were experiencing.
He explained that there were many moments when he couldn’t quite wrap his head around what was happening to him.
“When you’re doing hundreds and hundreds of [concerts] and it’s the same 22 songs at the same time every single day, even if you’re not happy, you’ve got to go out there,” he shared.
“It’s almost like putting the Disney costume on before you step up on stage and underneath the Disney costume I was pissed quite a lot of the time because there was no other way to get your head around what was going on. I mean it was fun. We had an absolute blast but there were certain parts of it where it just got a little bit toxic.”
“It’s difficult when you have the level of fame that we had in the band. There have been a lot of people in trouble with mental health that aren’t really getting the help that they need and I think that’s a bit of a problem in our industry.”
One thing's for sure; Liam Payne doesn't waste any time when it comes to his romantic life.
He may have only split with Naomi Campbell this month after some outrageous Instagram flirting, but the former One Direction star has already been dining with another supermodel.
The 25-year-old singer was spotted heading in to a Berlin restaurant to meet Victoria's Secret Angel Stella Maxwell. He's really punching above his weight there…
Stella Maxwell was dating Twilight actress Kristen Stewart until last December, and the 28-year-old bisexual actress is thought to be single currently.
The model and Payne both attended Coachella on the same weekend, so perhaps that's how they met?
The Strip That Down singer's brief romance with renowned veteran supermodel Naomi Campbell cooled down before the festival; it's claimed she "got bored of him". Ouch.
While they may be on a very extended 'break', Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson became millionares after chugging out album after album in a short space of time.
First of all, 1D sales are beyond insane. According to RIAA, One Direction has sold $13.5 million in digital singles, which is basically in downloaded singles alone.
Their album sales are also on the high end of the spectrum; 2013’s Midnight Memories was that year’s best-selling album, selling a whopping 4 million copies worldwide.
Let's not forget the merch, shall we? Piles of cash came in from their 2014 Where We Are Tourin particular. It became the highest-grossing tour of the year with $290.2 million.
Their 2013 Take Me Home tour also made $114 million, and 2015’s On the Road Again Tour made $208 million. So they've got plenty to brag about.
Bear in mind, the money had to be divided in five as well as siphoned off to their management and those who worked on set and on tour with them. STILL, it's cold hard cash.
Their merch strategy was out of this world; they could have sold a dirty old sock and fans would pay millions for it. You can still find merch of the bands actually..might get some more?
Their This Is Us movie earned a casual $8.9 million on its opening day alone, so there's that too. We confess, we went to see it, Twice.
One Direction also made sure to work with brands to get endorsements, such as Toyota and Pepsi.
Apart from all that coin he made in the infamous boy band, Harry also had his self-titled debut album and movie roles as part of his earnings.
His self-titled musical offering sold well, with one million copies being bought to be exact, and his solo tour making $62 million
His role in Dunkirk presumably paid well, and his modelling for GUCCI tailoring also gave him a handsome salary.
His L.A. home was only recently put on the market for $7.495 million, so he's got some money tied up in real estate property, and a $6.8 million NYC apartment, as well as his $3 million London home.
Which means…according toCelebrity Net Worth, our boy Harry has a total of $75 million to his name.
We just shed a single tear for the state of our financial independence…
'After the show they left together in the back of a blacked-out green Range Rover and Liam was seen putting his arm around Naomi's waist,' the source continued.
Maybe they're just pals? However, we're keeping our fingers crossed for a new celebrity romance.
2019 has already been a whirlwind. January is officially 51 weeks long, and the only thing keeping us entertained during this dark time are random AF celebrity couplings.
From the weirdness that was (possibly) Kate Beckinsale and Pete Davidson, now there rises a newer, just as odd pairing; Naomi Campbell and none other than LIAM PAYNE.
*Gasp* Cheryl's ex-beau and baby daddy to Bear has been leaving flirtatious notes on the supermodel's Instagram, which is the modern day equivalent of a love letter.
This ain't the first time there has been flanter between the duo; almost a week ago, Mr Payne posted this image to Instagram of himself seductively gazing at himself in the mirror.
The iconic veteran model commented; "Beautiful Soul", to which Liam replied, "takes one to know one." PHEW.
It's getting hot in here, alright. There's quite an age gap, but who are we to judge?
Let's see where this one goes, shall we? *Puts binoculars on*
“Cheryl is trying to put on a brave face, but she’s really dreading being lonely this year. She’s really struggling at the moment, being on her own,” a source claimed.
The Love Made Me Do It singer prefers to be in a relationship and is really feeling that loneliness as Christmas approaches.
There’s no doubt Liam will be there on Christmas morning as the parents vowed to take their parenting responsibilities extremely seriously, no matter what.
The former X Factor judge and Liam Payne went their separate ways in July 2018, but they have both agreed that their son’s happiness will always be their number one priority, regardless of their relationship status.
“They’re really serious about co-parenting and have always said they’d try to be there together for all the big events like Christmas and birthdays,” the source explained.
We’re sure Bear will help wash his mum’s worries away this Christmas.
Cheryl’s ex-husband Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini has denied recent claims the singer has made about their relationship.
And by his words, it seems he is still bitter about the way things ended.
Cheryl recently opened up about her love life in an interview with The Times, revealing that Liam Payne was the only faithful partner she had ever had.
But Jean-Bernard says her statement is untrue and is hurt that she would ever say he is a cheater, reports The Sun.
“I never cheated,” he told a close friend. “And I did everything I could to keep my marriage as it is sacred to me.
“Trust me, if I had cheated it would have been on the court papers.”
The Frenchman went on to say that Cheryl has a habit of always playing “the victim.”
“She should stop trying to blame me and the others for her failed relationships. She is trying to look like the victim in every way possible. It’s always everybody else’s fault.
“It’s the same thing with her weight loss. That wasn’t my fault either but she needs to blame somebody.”
The Girls Aloud singer married Jean-Bernard in July 2014 after knowing each other for about 12 weeks.
It's hard to contain the excitement, as the lads have kept us waiting for three years and counting.
One Direction broke fans hearts around the world when they announced a hiatus in 2015.
Though we'd love to see some new music from the group, we are remaining sceptical – each of the boys have done very well for themselves since their break.
