Liam Payne reconciles with ex-girlfriend

One Direction star Liam Payne has reportedly revived his relationship with ex-girlfriend after parting ways earlier this month. The pop singer sparked rumours he had ended his romance with former school mate Sophia Smith earlier this month after he wrote a number of heartfelt posts to her on micro-blogging site Twitter suggesting he wanted to give their love another shot.

He wrote, "Can`t be without you... Worse thing I ever did was let you go... No (sic) all I got left is the thought of you." Now the romance is back on track after the two were spotted holding hands on a shopping trip in Birmingham, Thursday, reports contactmusic.com. Payne is currently back in his native Britain as part of the band`s ongoing world tour.
