Liam Payne provide every penny of my £50 million fortune to my son Bear.

SHE has been fiercely private about her motherhood, giving fans only brief glimpses of her son Bear since his birth in 2017.

But now Cheryl Tweedy’s ex-boyfriend Liam Payne — the boy’s father — has opened up about their lives as co-parents following their split a year after the boy was born.

In his most candid interview to date, the former One Direction singer admitted that becoming a father was difficult for him.

And, despite Bear’s earlier arrival in the world, he said Cheryl, who is ten years his senior, assisted him in adjusting.

“She haemorrhaged quite badly giving birth, so she was asleep for the first day,” Liam, 28, explained. It was just me and a baby in the room, and I had to look after it.”

“She is the best mother in the world,” he added. I couldn’t have asked for a better person. He is everything to her, and I couldn’t ask for anything more.”

Liam and Cheryl had a two-year romance beginning in 2016 — eight years after he auditioned in front of her as a judge on The X Factor.

Their budding romance was first revealed after they were seen holding hands at the Brit Awards.

Cheryl revealed a year later that she was expecting their son. She didn’t say anything.
