Are Liam Payne And Cheryl Ready For Babies?

Liam Payne and Cheryl are “trying for a baby”.

The Girls Aloud singer started dating One Direction hunk Liam late last year, but things have “got very serious” quickly since they came out as a couple in February.

And now the pop pair are looking to take their duet to another level – with Chezza keen to swap the Sound of the Underground for the pitter-patter of tiny feet.

Of course, former X Factor judge Cheryl – who was formerly married to footballer Ashley Cole - may want to finalise her divorce from current hubby Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini first.

But, according to a source in The Sun: “It’s very serious now and they have been talking about starting a family.”

Liam’s band are currently on a “hiatus” while Cheryl quit the X Factor this year – meaning they’ve been able to spend as much time as possible together without working getting in the way.

Cheryl recently admitted the pair have been “going to a few concerts, playing on the Xbox and eating cheeseburgers” while a pal of Liam’s suggested he has barely picked up a guitar” since they became an item.

Last week Cheryl attended the wedding of Liam’s sister Ruth and endeared herself to his family by wearing an uncharacteristically loose-fitting, drab outfit to avoid upstaging the bride.

A source added: “Her dream is to become a mum – she wants to get her divorce to JB out the way and be able to have a complete fresh start.”
