Danielle Peazar (2010-2012)

The pair enjoyed a very brief reconciliation the following year, but soon called it quits for good.

Sophia Smith (2013-2015)
Liam and Sophia originally met when they were both in school, but didn’t date until 2013, splitting in October 2015.
He told The Sun On Sunday at the time: 'I’m absolutely devastated to have split with Sophia, but in order to do right by somebody, sometimes it’s better not to do what your heart wants, but to do what’s better for them.'
The split came as a shock to fans as just weeks before the boyband hunk admitted that the pair were talking about marriage.
In an interview with Attitude magazine, he said: 'We have talked about marriage, but 22 seems a bit young for us. Sophia needs to go off and do what she wants to do.
'I don’t want her to be one of those stay-at-home girlfriends who doesn’t really do much.'
