Liam’s ripped physique comes after a lifestyle overhaul.
Two years ago, Liam revealed he was left looking bloated after going through a ‘wild booze and pills phase’.
Liam, who said he struggled to stay sober on tour, revealed: ‘There were a few pictures of me on a boat and I was all bloated out and I call it my pills-and-booze face.
‘My face was 10 times bigger than it is now. The problem was, the best way to secure us was to lock us in our rooms, and what is in the room? A mini-bar.

‘So I had a party-for-one that seemed to carry on for years. It was wild but the only way you could get frustration out.’
Liam went on to reveal that he slipped back into bad habits during lockdown, and became reliant on alcohol, which led to him putting on weight.
Detailing the impact it had on his waistline, he continued: ‘I put on so much weight, I was eating badly and describing it as a bulking period — “I’m doing it for a movie role! It’s all good!”
‘That’s the best excuse if anyone asks if you’ve put on weight. Say it’s for a role, coming out 2022.
‘I put a lot of weight on. What got me, I did one performance on TV with the BAFTAs and I was disappointed with myself. I didn’t look how I wanted to look.
‘In your own self you know how you feel about it. Obviously they say the camera adds ten pounds and it definitely did. I realised I’ve let myself go in this.’
After the country came out of lockdown Liam worked hard on his physique, getting back into the gym and cutting down on his alcohol consumption.
