Written by News on 22/10/2018
Liam Payne has called for women to be treated with more respect following “demeaning” media speculation about “every female member” of his staff.
The former One Direction singer turned solo star made the comments on social media following a report linking him to a “mystery girl”.
In response, Payne said: “My team is full of talented, smart professional women. I find it wrong that they are reduced to being linked to me romantically in the press just for simply standing next to me.
“Isn’t it time we treat women with a bit more respect?”
He continued: “So far the press have done this with every female member of my staff it’s demeaning some are in relationships and it complicates there work environment when they do this to them … I think it stops here.” (sic)
His comments were greeted with praise from fans.
Payne, 24, split up with singer Cheryl, 35, earlier this year, just over a year after the birth of their son, Bear.
They told their followers that separating had been “a tough decision for us to make”.
