Liam Payne is planning something special for Cheryl on her birthday, with his partner turning 34 on Friday (30 June).

Speaking on US radio station Hot 99.5 with DJ Toby Knapp, the former One Direction star said his girlfriend has already "got everything" which is why she needs memories rather than gifts. To mark the occasion, Payne is planning a low-key get together.

"We are going to have a little get together thing for her which will be nice. She needs more memories and stuff like that rather than presents, she's got everything. If she wants something, she'll get it," the 23-year-old singer said.

"Now I've got to think of memories and things that will bring us all together. It's all happened so quickly and it's the most beautiful thing I've ever been a part of. Making my son, it's incredible. It's a really special time."

He also revealed that his son Bear has been exposed to a lot of one particular television show – Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

"We haven't really started lullabies yet but he loves the telly and my Mrs has got the Kardashians on all the time at the moment," he said. "I don't mind watching a little bit of the Kardashians but I don't want him looking at it and being like 'Oh yeah, that's what we should do'."

Meanwhile, fans of the couple are going gaga over an adorable photo that Payne shared of his child on social media. The couple welcomed their first child together on 22 March.

Payne took to Instagram on Wednesday (28 June) to share the cute image that shows him and his bundle of joy flaunting their matching Yeezys. Unfortunately, fans will have to wait to see what Payne's son Bear looks like since the image the singer has shared only shows the father-son duo flaunting their footwear.

"Like father like son.❤️#yeezy #fatherandson," the 23-year-old Payne wrote alongside the photo.

"THIS IS SO ADORABLEEE," one fan wrote, while another said, "This is amazing".

Like father like son.❤️#yeezy #fatherandson
