Liam and Cheryl were in a relationship from 2016 to 2018. They welcomed their son Bear in 2017. Following the news of Liam’s death last month, Cheryl issued a heartbreaking statement.

She said on her Instagram account: “As I try to navigate this earth-shattering event, and work through my own grief at this indescribably painful time, I’d like to kindly remind everyone that we have lost a human being.

“Liam was not only a pop star and celebrity, he was a son, a brother, an uncle, a dear friend and a father to our 7-year-old son. A son that now has to face the reality of never seeing his father again.”
