Liam Payne and Sophia Smith dated from 2013 to 2015. Look back at their past relationship in photos.
Liam Payne and Sophia Smith weren’t together for too long, but their former romance is still remembered by fans.
After staying friends for a few years, the former couple started dating in 2013. During a previous interview, Liam gushed to Attitude magazine about how they fell for each other.
“I didn’t actually go out with her [when we went to school],” the “Teardrops” artist explained. “I used to see her at school and we’d kind of chat. I asked her sister for her number. She was very shy and didn’t give much indication that she liked me, so I just assumed that she wasn’t interested, as well as thinking, she was way too hot for me anyway.”
The exes broke up in 2015, and Liam tragically died in 2024. Click through the gallery to see pics of the exes when they dated.
