A representative of Liam Payne confirm that the singer, 28, and his fiancee Maya Henry separated for the second time more than a month ago, according to information from People.
Henry, 22, has yet to comment on the breakup, although she recently commented on a fan-tagged photo of Payne with another woman and wrote:
“I love all the fans but please stop sending me these pictures of my fiancé involved with another woman. This is not me and it’s hard enough knowing this has happened without seeing it. Enough is enough.”
Due to this comment from the model, there has been strong speculation on social networks that Liam was unfaithful with the Instagram model. Aliana Mawla is the woman in the photograph.
The former One Direction singer was first linked to Henry in 2018. The two confirmed their romance in September 2019 and Payne popped the engagement question to Henry in August 2020.
Later, the two called off their engagement in June last year and Payne said on The Diary of a CEO podcast that he “just hasn’t been very good at relationships.”
But it wasn’t long before they were spotted together two months later in St. Tropez and finally returned to the red carpet as a couple that October in London.
In March, Payne attended the Taste the Future Luncheon at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills with Henry and said that they were still engaged.
“She’s still my fiancée,” the “Strip That Down” singer said at the time. “We’re still here together, and we’re very, very happy right now. Probably the happiest we’ve ever been.”
“I think we went through a lot in COVID,” Payne continued at the event, which he co-hosted. “I feel like we’ve come out the other side a little bit stronger.”
He also said that as a “couple who’s been through Covid together,” they spent most of their quarantine together. “Most couples who have been married for years fought, right?” he added. “So, I mean, we’re still very happy to be here together today.”
Payne shares his 5-year-old son, Bear Grey, with his ex Cheryl, whom he dated from late 2015 to July 2018.
