Since giving birth to her son Bear Payne back in March 2017, Cheryl and her ex-boyfriend, One Direction singer Liam Payne, have kept their son out of the spotlight, only sharing photos of his hands and feet on their social media accounts.
But as Cheryl looked back on 2018 like the rest of us, the 'Love Made Me Do It' singer delighted her fans by uploading three cute snaps of her little one to her Instagram Story. As well as remembering Bear's first birthday in March, Cheryl uploaded an adorable snap of her son 'learning to jiggle'.
The former X Factor judge later uploaded another photo of her son, this time showing Bear wearing a large pair of headphones. She captioned the shot with, 'More juggling lessons'.
In between documenting her highlights of 2018, which included her comeback to music and the opening of Cheryl's Trust Centre, Cheryl then delighted fans again by uploading a super cute snap of Bear playing football in the garden.
So cute! 👶
After a year of dating and a rather secret pregnancy, Cheryl and Liam welcomed Bear in March 2017, with the pair announcing their happy news on social media.
Sharing a photo of himself cradling his son, Liam wrote, 'My close friends and family know there are very few times when I'm left speechless... wow! 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. I'm completely in awe of his incredible mother and how she has been the whole way through this, she's really made my dreams come true. We haven't named him yet but he's already capturing hearts including mine. I feel very blessed.' [sic]
Despite their split in the summer of 2018, Cheryl and Liam have remained friends and continue to co-parent baby Bear.
