LIAM Payne has confessed that he felt "desperate" to find his place as Cheryl formed a close bond with son Bear.
Liam admitted he struggled to find his place when his son was born, and he has claimed that Cheryl's bond with the baby was greater.
The singer, 24, revealed their unique bond left him wondering how to get 'through fatherhood' and form his own relationship with Bear, who was born in March last year.
He told Hashtag Legend Magazine: "A mother and child is the most beautiful thing to watch, but they're the closest thing ever - and you'll never be as close.
"A lot of dads feel put out in that sense, I didn't really feel put out but I was like, 'where's my place?'
"I was desperate to find out what I was meant to do."
The former One Direction star, 24, said he was going to be in big trouble when he got home.
During a chat with Capital North East, Liam was talking about the possibility of performing at Newcastle's famous Hoppings venue and bringing his girlfriend along.
He said: "Let's get me and Chez will do it.
