1D’s Liam’s split with girlfriend
We didn’t want to believe the rumours but they seem like they’re true. One Direction’s Liam Payne and his girlfriend Sophia Smith have called it quits (as reported by celeb gossip sites)! Insert crying emojis here.
While the usually vocal and Twitter-happy boy band member has been majorly quiet on social media, fans are still holding on to hope that #Sophiam is still going strong.
Directioners were first introduced to the couple two years ago and later discovered that Sophia and Liam had gone to the same high school and had had feelings for each other since then. They’d been friendly enough but Liam hadn’t been sure she wanted him to make a move and so he hadn’t bothered. Liam had confirmed before in interviews that the two had been thinking of marriage but figured they were a little young to make such a move just yet, but unfortunately that doesn’t seem like it’ll be happening after all.
Some fans had taken time to warm up to the idea of Liam dating Sophia not too long after breaking it off with his ex Danielle Peazer, whom he met when she was a dancer on the X Factor, the competition that brought his band together and made them big. But just about all Directioners had eventually fallen in love with the cute couple calling them #RelationshipGoals and cooing over every Instagram snap Liam shared.
If you’ll excuse me I’ll be in a corner somewhere crying, hoping this isn’t true.
