Cheryl Cole shows off her baby bump in an advertisement for the L'Oreal and The Prince's Trust, finally revealing even without saying a word that the pregnancy rumors were true.

A lot of speculations began last September when Cole was spotted having a noticeably rounder face and figure. However, neither she nor Liam Payne, whom she is dating, has confirmed nor denied the rumors, preferring to talk about their work and other engagements when interviewed.

The Sun revealed that Cole is eight months pregnant, quoting an unnamed source, who reportedly said, "Cheryl is confident, proud, and very ready to become a mum."

Although spotted regularly in public, Payne and Cole have kept mum about their relationship to the media. As such, it comes as no surprise why the couple is keeping quiet about the exact date of birth and gender of the baby. Similarly, they have made no announcements yet as to what they will be calling their child.

This will be the first child of Payne and Cole. According to The Sun, pair first met when the former auditioned for the British talent show "X-Factor" in 2009, where the latter served as the judge. Payne will later become a member of "One Direction" through the show. The two started dating in 2015.

Payne will be the second "One Direction" member to become a father. Louis Tomlinson, his bandmate, has a baby with U.S.-based stylist Briana Junwirth, who gave birth last January 2016.

Payne is currently busy with recording his solo album, his first outside "One Direction." The band is currently in hiatus as its members pursue solo careers. Meanwhile, Cole is involved in various charity works. She is currently setting up her own charity organization, also with The Prince's Trust.

Her appearance in the advertisement is part of the "All Worth It" campaign of Loreal and Prince's Trust, intended to empower young people. Helen Mirren is also part of the ad campaign.
