Liam Payne sparks rumours that he and girlfriend Cheryl have married in secret after calling her his wife
New dad Liam Payne has once again set tongues wagging that he's married his baby mama Cheryl after repeatedly calling her his "wife" in an interview.
In an interview with American radio show SiriusXM in May, Liam joked about ditching Cheryl and Bear to fly to the US for fast food.
He said: "I left my wife and child at home and I was straight out to In-N-Out Burger."

Hmm. Not the sort of thing you'd normally say about someone who WASN'T your wife, but hey ho.
But then again, SiriusXM are based in the US, and he may have been worried that American listeners would not be happy to hear that he'd had a child with a woman he was not married to.
We don't know, we're just speculating here.
And whilst it hadn't been mentioned since then, we've all been left scratching our heads as he's now done it AGAIN - this time with French website On The Move.
Talking about writing music now that he's a father, Liam reportedly said: "To be honest with you, I don't know yet what it is like to write while being a father, I have not passed through this experience."
He then said: "I have something that I'm preparing with Timbaland and I was writing with Pharrell when his wife was pregnant along with my wife for that matter."

What does this mean? Why would Liam keep telling publications overseas that Cheryl's his wife but not here in the UK?!
Hmm. It's all very intriguing.
