Liam Payne announced his breakup with Maya Henry on ‘Diary of a CEO’ podcast and here's a look at the model who is also a philanthropist

Former 'One Direction' member Liam Payne called off his engagement with American model Maya Henry, announcing that the couple split during the lockdown. Liam announced his breakup on ‘Diary of a CEO’ podcast. The singer mentioned that he was now "single" and "disappointed" in himself for "hurting people". Speaking with host Steven Bartlett about his split, Liam said, “I feel like, more than anything at this point, I'm more disappointed in myself (that) I keep on hurting people. That annoys me. I’ve just not been very good at relationships and I know what my pattern of things is with relationships at this point."

Payne, 28, had popped the question to his former lady love Maya, 21, with a $4M engagement ring in August 2020. The couple had been dating for two years when they got engaged. In September 2019, Payne had spoken about his relationship during an interview on Capital Breakfast with Roman Kemp. "We’re fairly happy at the moment. I’m just past the point of where I’m bothered or not. It’s not worth my happiness; I’d just rather go out and do what I want. I’ve got nothing to hide," he had said.
