LONDON, July 10 — Cheryl Fernandez-Versini and Liam Payne announced a new addition into their family by sharing a picture of their newest member on Instagram: a puppy.
Singer Fernandez-Versini shared an adorable snap of the puppy perched on Payne’s chest as he lounged on the couch with the caption, “Our new family member… he is beyond cute… the dog is adorable too… @toosmallforteacups thank you.”
Abbie Sisson, who helped care for the puppies before they found their new home, also expressed her excitement at the new adoption on Instagram.
Fellow X Factor judge Simon Cowell earlier told The Sun, “I saw them together and we had a really nice dinner. They were on good form.”
“They're like two little chipmunks madly in love. Literally, they were so cute,” Cowell added.
22-year-old Payne met Fernandez-Versini, 33, when he auditioned for X Factor UK in 2008 and met again in 2010 when the judges helped form One Direction. The pair began dating earlier this year.
