Liam Payne

One Direction’s Liam Payne made his music debut when he auditioned for The X Factor in 2008. After being eliminated from the show, he auditioned again after two years and was invited to join four other contestants to form the all-male singing group, One Direction. One Direction went on to gas up the music industry. Since 2010, the band has sold more than 20 million albums all over the world. However, the English-Irish pop boy band went into hiatus, and after, Payne signed a recording deal in North America with Republic Records.

In 2016, Payne started dating English singer and dancer Cheryl, a member of the singing group Girls Aloud. They have a son, Bear Grey Payne, who was born in March 2017 when Payne was just 24 years old. Unfortunately, he and Cheryl broke up in 2018. He started dating model Maya Henry in 2019, and a year after, they got engaged.
