Do We Spy A Bump? Cheryl Looks More Pregnant Than Ever In This New Photo
Rumours of her pregnancy have been circulating for weeks.
Is she or isn’t she?
There’s been no official confirmation or denial of a pregnancy from Cheryl’s camp as yet, but the world has been on Cheryl Bump Alert for the last couple of weeks. Rumours that the singer could be expecting a child with One Direction star Liam Payne have been circulating for at least two months now, and neither Cheryl or Liam have done much to quash them.
Now, a new photo in The Sun which shows Cheryl relaxing at a Paris Fashion Week event last week, shows the closest thing to a baby bump we’ve seen yet. The picture, reportedly snapped while Cheryl and other guests at a L’Oreal event were preparing to pose for an official shot, shows Cheryl standing to the side, with a large bump clearly visible. View it here.
Other photos from the same event, all of which were published last week, do show a hint of a bump, but nothing quite so obvious.

Then of course there are these snaps, showing Liam and Cheryl walking to a waiting car:

The X Factor judge all but disappeared from the public eye over the summer, stepping out just once, for Liam’s sister’s wedding in June. She also disappeared off social media entirely for three weeks, returning to Instagram last week to share some snaps of her L’Oreal gigs at PFW.
Cheryl Just Took A Pretty Extreme Measure To Stop Those Pregnancy Rumours Flying
Just two weeks ago, Cheryl’s mum Joan Callaghan was spotted making purchases in her local Mothercare, which of course sent the rumour mill into overdrive – until it was noted that Joan has four other children and “a lot of grandchildren,” any of whom could be the reason for the Mothercare trip.
Cheryl and One Direction’s Liam have been openly dating since early February, just four weeks after Cheryl’s split from her husband of two years, Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini, was confirmed. Since the split, Jean-Bernard has reportedly refused to sign any divorce papers, and is contesting a clause in the divorce contracts which forbid him from speaking publicly about his marriage to Cheryl.
