Liam Payne, the famous singer from One Direction, posted a super cute picture of his son Bear, who is now six years old.

Fans are shocked to see how big he has gotten. Liam doesn’t often show off his family on social media, but every now and then, he gives us a peek at his son. Bear’s mom is Cheryl from the British girl group Girls Aloud, and they had him in March 2017.

Bear’s going to be seven soon, and it looks like he wants to be just like his dad and mom, who are both stars. On Instagram, Liam, who is 30, shared a photo of Bear in a bright yellow coat looking at a big poster of his dad. The caption was really sweet: “I want to be on a billboard one day Daddy.” People who saw the picture couldn’t get over how much Bear has grown, reports The Mirror Online.

One person wrote: “HOW IS HE SO BIG? ” Someone else said: “He’s so big, it seems like he was born yesterday.” Another fan said: “Bear is an amazing boy he’s his father’s biggest supporter.” And someone else couldn’t handle the cuteness, saying: “Oh no that’s so cute I can’t,” while another was surprised, asking: “He’s already that big? ? ? ”

Last year, Bear’s mom Cheryl, who is 40, said that Bear finally realized his parents are pretty well-known. Even though Liam and Cheryl aren’t together anymore, they both make sure to keep Bear’s life private while they take care of him together.

Cheryl and Liam Payne’s son Bear knows his parents are famous, but they’ve never shown his face to the world. Cheryl wants him to have a normal childhood. She told British Vogue: “I don’t want people recognizing him on the street. But he’s twigged that I’m famous. The other day he said, ‘How lucky am I to have famous parents? ‘ I said, ‘It doesn’t matter.’ He goes: ‘Yeah. But it’s pretty cool.”

Cheryl also shared that Bear is growing up fast, saying: “We blinked and we’re here almost seven.” Liam had always wanted to be a dad and hoped for a quiet life with Cheryl. But their relationship didn’t work out. Liam even said that becoming parents “ruined” their relationship, but in a good way. Now, they live near each other so they can both spend time with Bear.

“She is the best mum in the world. I couldn’t ask for someone better,” he shared on Logan Paul’s podcast Impaulsive. Liam added: “I get to take my son to school one or two times a week and it’s the best thing. The relationship we have now as friends has only grown more. We broke up for a reason and now she gives me full autonomy of my life and to do what I do and I know he’s [Bear’s] taken care of. He is all she cares about and I couldn’t ask for more. They live like three minutes from my house. I always glue myself to where he is. My life now is his. My money is his. He’s a lovely, lovely boy. We’ve been blessed.”
