Liam just won’t take his son on tour as he couldn’t bear to hurt Cheryl

-

LIAM Payne has been letting his hair down in the wake of his split from Cheryl, hitting Drake’s star-studded bash to mark the rapper’s latest album release.

Drake hosted the likes of Justin Timberlake and Lily Allen at the London party, with newly single Liam spotted leaving the bash too.

It Liam insists he would never take his son Bear, one, away on tour as he wouldn’t want to separate the tot from his ex, Cheryl.

The One Direction star, 24, and Cheryl, 35, pictured above, announced their split at the beginning of July.

In an interview with People Magazine Liam said he wants his son to have a stable home life.

Liam, whose hectic work schedule has been rumoured to be one of the reasons behind his break up from Cheryl, says he would never go on the road with little Bear. The Strip That Down hitmaker knows the importance of a mother and baby’s bond, telling People magazine: ‘Babies want their mum; I would never have wanted to get in the way of that.’

He insists his time apart from Bear during his jet-setting promo work for his solo career has only strengthen­ed his bond with his son, saying: ‘It was actually easier to go out on the road just knowing he wanted his mum. Now he looks at me and points at me like, “Here’s this fun guy!” He knows.’

Speaking to Elliot Holman on Total Access earlier this year, Liam said: ‘People have an issue with me going out to work. I know there are a lot of parents out there who are working really hard for their kids. Unfortunat­ely, when you have a child, life does not stop, you have to carry on.

‘For me, the main thing is this, I can either sit round at home and be a bum and enjoy the success I’ve had so far and teach my son absolutely nothing and all the wrong morals or I can go out and work really hard for what I want and do some amazing things and through the success show him what you can do with your life if you try.’
