Little Mix's Perrie Edwards has spoken out about her good friend Cheryl Fernandez-Versini's romance with Liam Payne saying she is 'very happy'.

If anybody knows what it’s like to date a One Direction boy it’s Perrie. The star dated former 1D member Zayn Malik before their relationship ended, so we expect she has been giving Cheryl some trusty advice.

Rumours of the unlikely pair started to speculate when Liam changed his Instagram picture to a cosy snap of the two, before the seemingly loved up couple were spotted out in London on a number of romantic dates.

Now, Perrie has spoken about the romance claiming her pal Cheryl ‘is very happy’ now she’s dating the One Direction hunk.

The 22-year-old, who went out for dinner with the X Factor judge just before Christmas said “Cheryl is a good friend of mine, she wants to do whatever makes her happy.”

Before adding, “I’m happy for her, whatever makes her happy I think is fine.”

Perrie enjoyed a two-year whirlwind romance with former One Direction man, Zayn Malik, which saw the pair get engaged before calling their romance off in 2015.

Meanwhile, after two weeks of showing off their new romance on social media, Cheryl and Liam have been quiet on the sites over the last week, with the former Girls Aloud star’s last post being a rather cryptic message which read ‘I fall in love with souls, not faces.’

Perrie is currently touring the UK with her Little Mix girls on their highly anticipated ‘Get Weird’ tour, which is getting rave reviews from fans attending the gigs.

Fans can expect big things from the girl’s arena tour which includes all of their hit singles, and a few surprises along the way.
