This is the first time we’ve ever seen Bear Payne.
Yesterday, Cheryl was spotted carrying her son, Bear, while calling over to close friend and former Girls Aloud bandmate, Kimberley Walsh’s house.
In these images, which are the first ever to appear of the little boy, it’s still only a quick glimpse with the back of the toddler visible. Cheryl or Bear’s father, Liam Payne have not shared any images of the toddler on social media yet, as they want to try and keep him separate to their showbiz lifestyles.

In a second image, we can see Kimberley arriving at the door to greet the pair and she looks ecstatic to see the little man with a head of curls. Awww.
Cheryl split from Liam Payne in July of this year.
A near-identical message on both Cheryl and Liam’s Twitter confirmed that Bear, their young son, is their ‘world’ and that they still have ‘so much love’ for each other.
Their full statement reads:
“We 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.”

The pair are continuing to co-parent their son, with both of them spending quality time alongside the toddler.
