Liam Payne has hinted that he might miss his son Bear's first birthday
There's been speculation for weeks that Cheryl and Liam Payne's relationship is 'under strain' with reports surfacing that the 24-year-old dad has been seeking legal advice about their alleged split.
However it has now come to light that Liam might miss baby Bear's first birthday because he'll be in Japan!
Yup.
The former boyband member posted a photo from his One Direction days and wrote: "This time next week I'll be on my way to Japan! I've got some amazing memories from Japan, can't wait to be back #TBT"
While hundreds of thousands of fans have rushed to gush about the X Factor stars, we couldn't help but notice that Bear's birthday is next week - March 22nd.
If Liam is in Japan next week does that mean he'll miss his little ones first birthday?
This isn't the first time he has missed out on a milestone, last year he was "really, really sad" not to spendhis first ever Father's Day with his son.
In other Chez and Liam news it was previously reported that the pop star couple will not buy their son any presents for his first birthday. A source told the Daily Mail: "They’re planning an intimate family party for Bear’s first birthday with just their immediate family members from both sides.
"They didn’t want to have a big party, they want to enjoy the day with their close family. They have asked for no presents as they don’t want to spoil Bear."
We can't wait to see what the couple get up to for Bear's first birthday and hopefully we'll finally get to see his face.
