British singer has admitted that he still feels a bit "fragile at times" after calling it quits with Cheryl Cole.
Despite being busy with many things in his life, Payne still hasn't recuperated from the trauma that resulted due to the split, Variety reported.
Payne further noted that the split was even harder as they have a son together. The 'One Direction' star, however, said that apart from the split he has several other things to sort out in his life.
He even expressed that being in the public eye is rough because of the criticism that one has to face. The singer stressed that people should remember that celebrities are also human beings at the end of the day and that they also face the same kind of pressure as others do.
The couple first went public about their romance in 2015. A year later, news of Cheryl's pregnancy began doing the rounds, and after a while, they welcomed their first child, Bear, on Mother's Day last year.
The couple, however, broke up in June ending their two-and-a-half-year-old relationship. Reportedly, Payne has moved on and is dating a model Cairo Dwek.
