The soon-to-be arrival of little baby Chiam was pretty much the most exciting news we'd heard since the fact that Liam Payne and Cheryl were an actual couple – and it looks like it may have already happened.
While the pair never verbally confirmed their pregnancy, Cheryl publically revealed her bump several times – and she may now FINALLY have given birth.
As heat went to press on Friday, we were hearing that Cheryl was already in a posh private hospital in central London preparing for the birth (read more in this week's mag) – and Cheryl's Girls Aloud bandmates, Sarah Harding and Kimberly Walsh, might have just hinted at the news.
Kimberly posted a pic of her and Chezza on Instagram with the caption: "Love this pic of me and Cheryl,' while Sarah captioned her montage: '#kissestothemissus #good #times."
And Sarah followed it up with a pic of her and Chez having a kiss while on tour, writing: "THAT kiss… #OldTimesSake #GA #110 #Tour"
Many fans have taken this to be an oh-so-subtle attempt at congratulating her without actually saying anything. Sneaky.
One wrote: "@KimberleyJWalsh is this a sneaky way of saying Cheryl has just given birth @CherylOfficial" and another: "@KimberlyJWalsh subtle Miss Walsh very subtle."
All this comes after a source told us: "Cheryl has made it very clear to Liam that she wants and needs him around now. The baby comes first, above and beyond everything. There will be no clubbing in London in the next few months!
"Cheryl wants the very best for her child, and that means a full time adoring father - so Liam knows he's on nappy duty and night feeds.
"And of course he agrees; he’s so excited about being a dad! He’s been getting tips from [One Direction bandmate] Louis [Tomlinson], who’s been telling him how exciting those first few weeks with a new baby are."
