Cheryl Cole Responds to Rumors About Liam Payne Split

Cheryl Cole is addressing rumors that her split with Liam Payne had to do with her mother.

The 35-year-old entertainer took to her Twitter to defend her mom after the couple’s recent breakup.

“I hate responding to stuff esp at such difficult times but I cannot sit here and listen to such nasty, false articles regarding my mam,” Cheryl wrote.

She added, “I don’t know why they involve her in stories about me. I can assure you she has absolutely nothing to do with any of it. I am a grown woman who is capable of dealing with my own life. She is a soft and kind woman who doesn’t deserve to be dragged into something that has nothing whatsoever to do with her.”

Cheryl and Liam announced their split after over two years of dating. They share one-year-old son Bear.
