Cheryl, 33, is expecting her first child with boyfriend Payne, 23, and "The X Factor" judge Walsh believes having a baby will make her truly happy, reported Daily Star.
"I think Cheryl and Liam starting a family will make her really happy. I honestly think she deserves to be happy. And I think this will make her happy over and above what her career does. Liam's a nice guy. I have nothing bad to say about them," Walsh said.
"I don't think being a mum will affect her career at all if she doesn't want it to. It's never too late. I only wish her the best.
