Watch the moment Cheryl and Liam first met – she was 26, he was 14!

Who knew back then they’d end up making a baby together

| Updated:

We can all agree that Cheryl is in fact pregnant with Liam Payne’s child, it ain’t no food baby!

Come on Chezza, just come out and say it!

Cheryl met boyf Liam back on X factor in 2008, when she was a judge and he was auditioning.

Liam, with his Justin Bieber-like hair, stood in front of Simon Cowell, Louis Walsh and of course, Cheryl and sang a rendition of Frank Sinatra’s Fly Me To The Moon.

Warning! It’s very awkward to watch now you know that he put his Little Thing in her Love Machine.

During the song, Cheryl can’t take her eyes off him and Liam even gives her a cheeky wink – it is clear there was a spark from the get-go.

Cheryl commented on the performance: “I like you. I think you’re really cute.”

Little did she know she’d do a lot more than like him!

She added: “I think you’ve got charisma.”

Liam then 14, was told by Simon that he had “potential” but that he was “missing a bit of emotion and a bit of fun”.

He made it to judges houses, but was unsuccessful. He returned two years later to sing again, where he gained huge success with One Direction.

Cheryl was blown away again, this time by his rendition of Cry Me A River.

Chiam announced they were dating earlier this year on Instagram, not long after rumours first started.

Pregnancy speculation was confirmed when Cheryl stepped out at a charity bash showing off her bump.

A source told The Sun: “Cheryl has told close friends and family the very exciting news that she is expecting her first child.

“She is absolutely ecstatic.

“She doesn’t want to speak publicly about it for a number of reasons, particularly due to some of the battles she has gone through in her personal life in recent years.

“Obviously everyone wants to hear it come from her but she is keeping quiet for now.

“At the event last night she was proudly showing off her bump and telling everyone how happy she was.”

We are so glad!
