The snap came just hours after Chezza teased her meeting with the 1D singer on Instagram, but it’s not just the two of them in the pic, which you can see below:
Alluding to the media attention the two have attracted over the past week, the caption reads: "My mystery man line up 😜#whosthemysteryman #whoisit #whosworthit.”
Ah, another post that actually tells us precisely nothing. Wouldn’t this all be a lot easier for all parties if Cheryl and Liam actually addressed the rumours directly, so the rest of the world can, y'know, get on with their lives?
Well, Liam may have the answers to our prayers, as shortly after Cheryl's upload, Liam posted this:
Interesting timing, right? It's almost as if they co-ordinated their uploads to get as much coverage as possible.
Weird.
The dating rumours have persisted since the weekend, when sources claimed the pair had been dating since December, and in the days since, the duo have fuelled the rumours on a number of occasions.
First, there was Liam’s new Instagram picture - which was replaced in a matter of days - and then Cheryl’s new-look bio.
We also spotted that Liam had been leaving comments on the ‘X Factor’ judges’ snaps, right underneath our noses.
Will they ever *actually* confirm their relationship? Which of the mystery men is actually "worth it"? Watch this space…
