Cheryl Fernandez-Versini 'spent Valentine's Day with Liam Payne in the Maldives'

Cheryl Fernandez-Versini and Liam Payne reportedly spent Valentine's Day together in the Maldives. The pop duo are said to have gone to extreme lengths in order to keep their burgeoning romance a secret, with Cheryl flying there via Kimberley Walsh's wedding in Barbados, while Liam traveled to the sun-drenched holiday destination from London. A source said: "It was great for Liam and Cheryl to go on their first big holiday away together. The Maldives was the perfect spot as there was little chance of fans spotting them and it gave them a chance to spend time together. "It was really hushed up and they went to great lengths not to be spotted when they flew in. "Some of their closest friends didn't even know they had been away, let alone on holiday with each other. "They had an amazing trip and it really made them believe they had something special together." Although their relationship is still in its infancy, Cheryl, 32, and Liam, 22, are already said to be "loved up". The insider told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "Being able to completely unwind away from the world's eye is not something that a member of the biggest boyband of the world and one of the UK's biggest style icons get to do often. "So they made the most of being in their stunning surroundings. It's early days but they are extremely loved up. "They enjoyed it being just them but now they can be more open about it, they are excited to see where things go from here."
