Cheryl’s fans will be delighted to see her back in the limelight again following the birth of her first child, a son Bear, in March this year. The singer has kept a low profile while spending time with her newborn, but is now slowly getting back to work. Last weekend Cheryl made a sensational return to the catwalk as she modelled for L’Oreal in Paris Fashion Week, joining a host of celebrity ambassadors, including Helen Mirren and Jane Fonda.
The star also sparked excitement when she stepped out in Paris ahead of her catwalk appearance. The new mum was photographed in the French capital looking stunning in a long, black dress and a gold, circle-shaped ring on her wedding finger! There has been no news of an engagement from either Cheryl or her boyfriend Liam Payne.
