Cheryl (yes, it's just the first name these days), made her first television appearance in months on The One Show, taking part in a special 'childhood' themed episode of the show.

The star was revealed as the new face of Childline earlier today and revealed on The One Show that she just wants to 'help young people' after suffering in her teenage years.

Despite rumours swirling that Cheryl,33, is expecting her first child with Liam Payne, 23, she didn't confirm or deny reports. However, she did mention that she was 'doing great' and was sporting a much more fuller figure in a beautiful black jumpsuit.

Cheryl took the time to reflect on her own childhood growing up in Newcastle, revealing that she was very 'depressed as a teenager' and really relates to the young children and adults that call Childline seeking help and support.

"I would not go back to my teenage years for love nor money.

"I really want to help young people, the next generation to have hope and opportunity."

Adding that her home life that was far from perfect, Cheryl added: "I grew up with nothing. Life isn't perfect. It isn't the Instagram photos and what you see on social media. You are going to have hardship.

"I would have told myself to relax and not to worry so much, to talk about how you're feeling. Whatever you're going through, you will get through it."

Cheryl then left the hour-long special early, leaving fellow guests Dame Esther Ransden and Sir Chris Hoy to take over the guest slots. However, before she left, Alex Jones and Matt Baker were keen to address the paparazzi waiting outside.

Cheryl insisted that she's got such a tough skin these day that she "Doesn't give a damn...come at me bro."

Was that a thinly veiled dig to all those questioning whether she is expecting her first child? It could be...

Here's what viewers thought:

Welcome back Cheryl! How we've missed you!

What do you think? Do you think Cheryl looked blooming marvellous?
