Last updated 19th Oct 2017
This time last year rumours were rife every day about whether or not former Girls Aloud singer Cheryl Tweedy and her boyfriend Liam Payne were expecting their first baby together.
Despite Cheryl or Liam never publicly confirming Cheryl's pregnancy, fast forward to March this year and baby Bear Grey Payne arrived on the 22nd of the month.
Now Cheryl has enjoyed time off with her son, the singer is getting back into the swing of work and has finally opened up about that very secretive pregnancy in a recent interview.
Speaking to Vogue about returning to work life, the 34-year-old revealed she used to play baby Bear music whilst he was in her stomach.
She said, "What’s interesting is that I love music now more than I ever did. The baby loves music too, and I always played it throughout my pregnancy."
