The star auditioned for the show for a second time seven years ago with his rendition of Cry Me A River.
Speaking on Heat Radio, he said: “I got a standing ovation from everyone except for Cheryl, which I thought was hilarious.
“She said she was having a row with Simon because he should have stood up for somebody else, so she didn’t stand up for me. But I’m still, I’m angry about that.”
Chezza and Liam became an item earlier last year and have since welcomed their baby boy Bear into the world.
Liam recently referred to Cheryl as his “wife” in a radio interview sparking speculation that the two have secretly tied the knot.
One of the presenters jokingly asked if Liam had travelled to Los Angeles just to go to In-N-Out Burger, after the star admitted he ate as much fast food as he could after arriving in the States.
He replied: “Yeah, exactly. I left my wife and child at home and I was straight out to In-N-Out Burger.”
