What We Know About Liam Payne And Maya Henry

Liam Payne and Maya Henry have a complicated relationship. The couple first met in 2015 while the One Direction member was dating fellow singer Cheryl Cole. During their relationship, Payne and Cole welcomed a son, Bear (via Bustle). They dated for three years before calling it quits in 2018. Later that year, Payne and Henry were linked for the first time. However, they kept their romance under wraps for nearly a year. 

It wasn't until September 2019 that the couple confirmed their relationship. However, in February 2020, the pair were rumored to have split. The following month, Henry shot down any speculation about his relationship with Payne with an Instagram post in support of her man.

The couple continued to live happily until August 2020, when Henry was spotted wearing a large diamond ring on her left hand while dining at London hotspot Novikov. Later, Payne's reps confirmed that the duo was engaged. Fans were happy for the pair, but it seems that the pair had a bumpy road ahead of them.

Liam Payne and Maya Henry's engagement didn't last long. Less than a year after their big news was confirmed, the couple called it quits. The One Direction member admitted his single status back in June when he confessed that he was no longer engaged to Henry during an interview on Steven Bartlett's "The Diary of a CEO" podcast," per E! News. When asked if he was single, Payne replied, "I am indeed. I feel like more than anything at this point, I'm more disappointed in myself that I keep on hurting people," he continued.

"That annoys me. I've just not been very good at relationships, and I know what my pattern of things is with relationships, I feel at this point. I'm just not very good at them so I just need to work on myself before I put myself on to somebody else. And I feel like that's where I got to in my last relationship. I just wasn't giving a very good version of me anymore, that I didn't appreciate and I didn't like being," Payne continued. He also explained that he felt "better" to be out of the relationship and although he didn't like ending things, it "had to happen," revealing that the decision to split was "best for both" him and Henry at the time. However, it appears that things may have changed between the couple yet again.

Although Liam Payne and Maya Henry decided to call it quits over the summer, it seems that the couple just couldn't stay away from each other. The Daily Mail reported on August 12 that Payne and Henry are back together just two months after their split. Payne reportedly won Henry back by setting up a series of romantic dates. Sources now tell the outlet that the couple has not only decided to give their romance a second chance but that they've also moved back in together and have worked through the issues that caused them to split.

"They realized that they couldn't live without one another," an insider told the Daily Mail. "Liam started to win Maya back after she returned from the U.K. and eventually succeeded after a romantic gesture," the source added. In addition, the informant revealed that those closest to Payne approve of the relationship. "His friends and family all love Maya because she's such a healthy influence on him, so that probably contributed it," the insider dished.

Many fans are now hoping that Payne and Henry can make their relationship work this time around and that the two will live happily ever after.
