Liam Payne shows off his abs after topless workout – leaving fans drooling
LIAM Payne has shown off his ripped abs in a topless selfie today - leaving fans drooling.
The pop star sported black shorts with socks and trainers as he worked up a sweat in his home gym.
Liam, 27, was accompanied by his adorable French Bulldog puppy who stared adoringly up at him.
The ex One Direction singer captioned his shot on Instagram: "When your puppy decides to jump into your progress pic!"
It comes after he recently shared a cryptic post on Instagram following his split from his fiancée Maya Henry.
In the early hours of a Sunday morning three weeks ago the singer headed to his Instagram stories to muse on the state of his relationship.
The star - who split from Maya, 21, last month - shared a series of posts and tagged his ex, telling her he "loved" her.
Writing in white text on a plain white background, the star mused about the importance of keeping loved ones "close" after making "mistakes".
"Don't let someone go if you really want to love them even if you have to learn to love them through your own mistakes," Liam wrote.
"Let your instinct tell you that you need them and keep them close we are always running out of time we never gain it."
I love you, we calm....
In a follow-up post soon after, he joked: "F*** Me I'm Wise," before tagging his ex in another solo post alongside a prayer hands emoji.
He concluded the series of posts in what appears to be a message directly to Maya: "I love you, we calm."
Liam shocked fans last month when he confirmed his split from Maya, explaining that he needed to "work on himself".
Liam and Maya confirmed they were engaged in August last year after Liam popped the question during lockdown with a £3 million ring.
