Liam Payne opens up about becoming a dad for the first time and admits he’s started watching Judge Rinder with Cheryl and their baby son Bear
LIAM Payne has opened up about becoming a dad for the first time and admitted he's spending a lot of time watching daytime television.
The ex-One Direction star revealed he'd become a fan of Judge Rinder after watching it with his partner Cheryl and their little boy at their family home in Surrey.
Liam’s admission came after he recognised a fan from the hit ITV series as he signed autographs in London.
As a fan approached him for an autograph, Liam said to him: “Were you on Judge Rinder?”
As the man replied that he was, Liam told him: “I saw you, I saw you.
“There’s a lot of daytime TV at home now we’ve got the baby.”
After posing for a picture with his new pal, Liam said: “I didn’t see the end so don’t tell me what happened! Just say you won!”
Liam and Cheryl had previously stayed tight lipped about the birth of their baby boy on 22 March.
The singer was all smiles as he continued to take pictures with his devoted followers and told them Bear was “good” when asked how he was.
On Monday The Sun revealed Liam and Cheryl had chosen the name Bear for their son.
Liam later thanked Bear Grylls who congratulated the new parents on choosing that name.
The ex One Direction star, 23, sent massive respect to the TV survival guru, 42 — calling him “a boss”, and saying he hopes his son turns out to have “an ounce” of his “courage”.
Fans have been expressing their surprise at the name in hilarious posts online all day.
With their first child now in the world, fans are now speculating over whether Cheryl and Liam will tie the knot.
