One Direction Baby! Cheryl Cole Confirms She's Pregnant With Liam Payne's Kid

Feb. 23 2017, Updated 3:40 p.m. ET

It's official! Cheryl Cole formally announced her pregnancy in a photo shoot for L’Oreal and The Prince’s Trust, published by The Daily Mirror.

While the British singer and TV personality debuted her subtle baby bump back in November, she didn't confirm the pregnancy with former One Direction member Liam Payne until now.

The Daily Mail tweeted out the cover featuring Cole, 33, cradling her rapidly growing belly on February 23, with "Tomorrow's Daily Mirror front page."

"Cheryl & the bump!" the headline reads, with Cole posing in a long-sleeve black dress.

This is Cole's first child. She met Payne, 23, when he auditioned on the U.K.'s The X Factor in 2008, on which she was a judge. He was just 14 years old at the time. In 2010, Payne auditioned again and that's when One Direction was born.
Cole was previously married to Ashley Cole from 2006 to 2010 and French restaurateur Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini from 2014 to 2016. Maybe she and Payne will walk down the aisle some time soon?
