The Girls Aloud star decided to break things off as she felt they were not able to operate as partners anymore, The Sun reported.

According to the publication, sources close to the 35-year-old claim she effectively raised Bear on her own for most of his first year.

They ended things after two-and-a-half years. Insiders alleged their relationship breakdown was due to Liams constant travelling to promote his pop career in the months after their child was born.
