Liam Payne and his girlfriend Sophia Smith were spotted cuddling in matching outfits at an NBA basketball game in London's O2 arena last night. Liam Payne and his girlfriend Sophia Smith looked happier than ever together, despite rumors that Liam had ditched his girlfriend at One Direction band mate Zayn Malik's birthday party, leading fans to worry about a break up.

Liam Payne and Sophia Smith wore matching black outfits to the NBA basketball game staged in London, between the Brooklyn Nets and Atlanta Haws. The One Direction singer opted for a black T-shirt and black jeans, while his girlfriend wore all black pleather pants, heels, and a trendy turtleneck. Sophia wore her long, brown hair down.

Liam and Sophia spent most of the game cuddling and whispering into each other's ears. This young couple looked very loved-up considering rumors that Liam didn't treat his girlfriend right at Zayn Malik's 21st birthday party last weekend.
