Although the 'Bedroom Floor' singer is madly in love with Cheryl Tweedy - the mother of his baby son Bear - he admitted marriage may not be on the cards for them.

Speaking to Daily Star Online, Liam said: "I don't know if I'm the wedding-y type of guy. Weddings feel a bit weird to me. I don't know. Who knows? We'll see."
