Cheryl reveals she 'HATED being pregnant' with son Bear: 'I didn't enjoy it'

Cheryl has confessed that she really struggled while being pregnant with son Bear, admitting she ‘hated’ the nine month experience.

While she loves motherhood, the former X Factor judge revealed that her pregnancy was a very difficult time for her. But she insists that starting a family with boyfriend Liam Payne has been the ‘best six months’ of her life.

‘I hated being pregnant. A lot of stuff went on and I just didn’t enjoy it,’ she told The Sun.

Adding: ‘It changes your life completely but in the most amazing way. But I’ve had the best six months of my life. Really.’

Cheryl has been notably absent from the public eye since falling pregnant but will make her return to the spotlight on The X Factor this weekend as she helps Simon Cowell at the judges’ houses stage.

‘I didn’t stop for 14 years — literally on the roller coaster,’ she said. ‘And then when I got pregnant I thought, “Right, I just don’t need this stress.” So I relaxed.’

But Chezza admits she is thankful for her extended break.

She added: ‘It’s been actually over a year but it’s been perfect for me because it’s reset the mind-frame.

‘And I feel actually better coming back. I feel more relaxed, I just feel I’ve sat into my own skin. I feel so good.’

While she isn’t planning on rushing back to full-time work just yet, she has admitted that she is quietly working on her pop comeback for next year.

‘It has been so long — the fans are very patient,’ she admitted.

‘I’m thinking about it but I just want more time with Bear at the moment, you know. I’m just loving that, to be honest.

‘I’ve got the luxury of being able to spend more time with my newborn child and I think I’m going to take that for what it is.

‘But I do have plans and I am receiving songs and music and stuff at the moment.’

It’s good to have you back, Cheryl.
