Liam Payne pays tribute to 'super mum' ex Cheryl on Mother's Day

Former One Direction star Liam Payne has paid tribute to his “amazing” ex Cheryl on Mother’s Day.

Payne praised “super mum” Cheryl, 35, who is mother to his son Bear.

"Happy Mother’s Day to these two amazing super mums not sure what me and the little man [Bear emoji] would do without you xx," he wrote.

He included a photo of Cheryl cradling her baby bump during her pregnancy.

Bear, two, was born in March 2017.

Payne, who went on to forge a solo career after One Direction, started dating Cheryl, who recently starred as a judge on BBC show The Greatest Dancer, in 2016. The couple split in July last year.

Payne, 25, is rumoured to be dating 48-year-old supermodel Naomi Campbell.
