Cheryl Fernandez-Versini and new boyfriend Liam Payne wore matching black outfits for another night out on the town together.

The pair, who have only recently confirmed their relationship, were spotted holding hands as they headed to Salmontini restaurant for dinner on Wednesday night.

Even though they’ve only been dating for a few months, the couple were joined by the One Direction star’s mother Joan Callaghan for the evening.

While the pair are yet to publically discuss the relationship, they have both shared a number of snaps on social media.
