Liam Payne posted the most adorable Valentine’s Day picture of his son, baby Bear – and says he now has to compete for girlfriend Cheryl’s affections!
Beside the shot of his 11-month-old, the singer wrote: “Happy Valentine’s Day @cherylofficial and everyone. Looks like I’ve got the big guy to compete with now.”
The mini T-shirt read: “Bear is Mummy’s little Valentine”.
Cheryl replied with a string of emojis including love heart eyes and crying with laughter.
The former One Direction star’s 15.3 million followers were thrilled at the personal shot, which doesn’t feature Bear’s face.
One wrote: “Awwww that’s so cute”. Another added: “God This is so cute!! The caption, everything! Love you Liam!”
A third added, “THAT’S TOO CUTE LIAM! STOP KILLING US WITH THAT CUTENESS”.
Cheryl and Liam, 24, who had Bear last March, have been together for two years, after meeting ten years ago on the set of X Factor, where the Geordie was a judge, and Liam was auditioning.

According to reports, they’ve struggled to spend time together as Cheryl is in the UK with their son and Liam is jetting around the world to promote his solo music.
However, they put on a united front at the BRIT Awards on Wednesday night, shutting down all those pesky split rumours.
They gave a tactile and loved up display on the red carpet, followed by a naughty joke about their sex life during the live show.
When host Jack Whitehall interviewed the couple about Liam’s performance of a song from the Fifty Shades Freed soundtrack, he cheekily asked if they had a safe world.
Cheryl quipped: “Don’t stop!”
However, some people then began to wonder if the duo’s amorous display was just a publicity stunt following the rumours.
Well, Cheryl was NOT happy with that suggestion!
She tweeted on Thursday morning: “Oh stop, no one cares who’s been speculatively arguing or not in their relationships. Use your platform to put something productive in your columns.”

Referring to her Prince’s Trust Cheryl’s Trust Centre in Newcastle, which launched on Tuesday, she added: “I opened a centre this week that could help thousands of youth!!!!”
The former Girls Aloud star signed off by tweeting: “…Oh and your ‘stunt’ theories are just ludicrous and a bit weird.”
So, there we have it!
Nothing to see here, people, all is fine between them!
