Speculation Cheryl is expecting started way back in May – when she appeared at the Global Gift Gala in Paris.

Standing close to Liam, who she’s been dating since February, Cheryl’s tummy looked slightly more rounded with fans speculating she was pregnant.

The rumours continued after she attended the wedding of Liam’s sister Ruth, covering her stomach in a long, grey dress and sticking to water throughout the evening.

In September, Cheryl’s mum Joan only added fuel to the fire when The Sun Online revealed her buying a maternity pillow from Mothercare in Newcastle.

At the start of October, a brief appearance in Paris at a L’Oreal party seemed to show Cheryl hiding her tummy with a detailed, black jumpsuit.

Then, following her perfume signing in London, The Sun Online revealed pictures of Cheryl with a very rounded tum.

Motherhood has always been in Cheryl’s plans.

In 2012, she told GQ: “I know that’s what I was put on the earth to do – to be a mother.

“I’d love kids, I’m obsessed with babies.”

Cheryl also revealed she’d spent a long time thinking about names she likes, adding: “Of course I’ve thought about names, a million times.

“I like Alfie for a little boy.”

The pictures of Cheryl outside of The Sanderson Hotel came in the same month Cheryl was granted a divorce from her now ex-husband Jean Bernard Fernandez Versini.

When the decree nisi was granted, it began a new stage in Cheryl’s life – leaving her free to build a happy home.

At the time, a source told The Sun: “She is so pleased now that the divorce has been settled and she can move on with her life, and leave JB to get on with his.”

Since Cheryl’s divorce, Liam appears to be on cloud nine – posting loved up tributes to Cheryl online.

After her signing on Thursday, he tweeted: “@CherylOfficial so jealous of everyone who got to spend the day with my girl today grrrrrrr!”

Just hours later, there was even a hint that marriage could be on the cards.

Singing along to MAGIC!'s Why You Gotta Be So Rude while at Zedd’s concert in Las Vegas, Liam croons into the camera: “I’m going to marry her anyway.”

Since meeting Liam, Cheryl’s been the happiest she’s been in a long time.

Her old foe Louis Walsh even admitted he thought she’d finally found her happy ending.

He said: “I think Liam and Cheryl are going to work. He’s a nice guy and he’s in love with her – he’ll make her happy.”
