The two are staring into each other’s eyes as a shirtless Louis places a finger tenderly on Freddie’s nose and captioned the post: ‘Lad and dad’.

Hearts melting everywhere!

It’s the second shot of the two, after the One Direction singer first confirmed his son had been born with a Twitter picture that read: ‘Meet my little lad, Freddie.’

Louis and his former fling Briana Jungwurth welcomed Freddie on January 21, with the star telling fans that his baby boy was ‘healthy and pretty amazing‘.

The pair have kept little Freddie to themselves, although Briana posted a picture of the tot on Instagram last week, telling followers that she ‘couldn’t have asked for a better valentine’.

It looks like Louis’ 2016 is just going to get better and better as well, as it is thought that he is the hot favourite to become the fourth judge on the fourteenth season of The X Factor.

William Hill revealed that Louis, who was a guest mentor at judges’ houses with Simon Cowell in 2015, has odds of just 4/6 after fans flocked to place bets.

Louis has always been a favourite of fans of the show and he called his return to the show in 2015, five years after he first found fame there with One Direction, ‘an honour’.
