Cheryl looked heartbroken as she attended the funeral of her former partner, Liam Payne, on Wednesday 20 November, and no doubt she will be retreating back home over the coming weeks to grieve in private.

The Girls Aloud singer and her young son reportedly live in a Buckinghamshire village and they have done so since 2019. But despite the £3.7 million property being acquired after Cheryl and Liam broke up, the One Direction star contributed to the purchase, as reported by the Mail Online.

The agreement stated that Liam James Payne was one of the lenders along with Accord Mortgages and Cheryl Ann Tweedy would be the registered owner.

This generous move means that Cheryl and Bear have a lasting legacy from Liam, who died in Buenos Aires on 16 October.

The publication went on to write that the singer lives there alongside Bear and her mother and the property is three stories tall with four bedrooms, as well as an office and gym.

Cheryl has also chosen to keep Bear's identity under wraps, only sharing rare photos and videos of her son from behind or with his face obscured.

At Christmas time one year, Cheryl showed off more of the house than ever before. One photograph shared on Instagram showcased a beautiful fireplace decked with candles, foliage and Father Christmas ornaments. Another snap captured the star's beautifully decorated stairs where the banister had been adored with faux pine leaves and baubles.

Liam and Cheryl had been in a relationship for a year when they welcomed their son Bear on 22 March 2017.

Liam announced their split in July 2018 on X, formerly known as Twitter, and he confirmed they would continue to co-parent their son.

"Cheryl and I are sad to announce that we are going our separate ways. It's been a tough decision for us to make," he wrote.

"We still have so much love for each other as a family. Bear is our world and we ask that you respect his privacy as we navigate our way through this together."
