The 36-year-old singer raises Bear, two, with former partner Liam Payne, and praised her son as her biggest motivation as she appeared on Children In Need on Friday.

The ex Girls Aloud star made the charity appearance to introduce an emotional clip about a family who have been supported by a bereavement centre in Newcastle.

Bear’s dad Liam, meanwhile, recently admitted he regards his ex as ‘the most important person in his life’.

The former couple split last year after a two-and-a-half-year relationship.

Liam, 26, also said in his book Straight Talking that becoming a father in his twenties ‘messed him up’.

“Becoming a dad at such a young age, it’s such a difficult thing,” he said.

“And I think I built fatherhood up so much in my head that it kind of messed me up to start with. I started in a bad place with it.

He went on to say: “[Cheryl] is one of the most, if not the most, important people in my life.

“I’m lucky I have someone who understands what I’m going through.”
