Liam Payne and girlfriend Cheryl have kept pretty quiet about their relationship. But now Liam is breaking his silence, opening up to Rollacoaster magazine about Cheryl, who’s expecting the couple’s first child.
Liam and Cheryl began dating late last year but first met in 2010 when Payne was competing on The X Factor.
It seems they’ve definitely kept the romance alive. According to The Sun, Liam told Rollacoaster, “Obviously I have the most beautiful girlfriend in the world and she’s absolutely amazing. She’s been my dream girl since I was younger. She’s so ace.”
Oh my god, did he just say “ace”? Excuse me while I go add Brittish accent to my must-have list for potential husbands. Swoon.
His admiration for her might even be better than his accent because what’s better than a man who supports his girl? “She is a wonderful, wonderful person and it’s amazing to have someone who can relate to so much of things—someone who’s taken greater steps than me. Her solo career was amazing. She’s been in the industry for 14 years now.”
This happy couple is about to get that much happier, though. They’ve got a baby on the way, super exciting news that has yet to be officially announced. But in February, fans got a peek at Cheryl’s baby bump in a photo shoot for L’Oreal and The Prince’s Trust.
Liam is just 23, so he’s still learning the ropes when it comes to welcoming a baby into the world. But thankfully he has the help of Cheryl, 33. “She fully supports me. We’re super happy. It’s a very personal, precious time for us.”
How much longer do we have to wait for baby Payne to arrive?
