Former One Direction singer Liam Payne and "Girls Aloud" star Cheryl have parted ways.
The news comes just one day after Cheryl's 35th birthday.
"Cheryl and I are sad to announce that we are going our separate ways. It's been a tough decision for us to make. We still have so much love for each other as a family.
"Bear is our world and we ask that you respect his privacy as we navigate our way through this together," Payne, 24, posted on Twitter.
