Liam - who split with ex Danielle Peazer back in May - confirmed news of his and Sophia's romance during an interview with Yahoo's OMG! earlier this week, explaining that they had hadn't been together long.
However, she faced the wrath of One Direction fans after attending the party with Liam, forcing him to speak out in defence of their relationship on Twitter.
He tweeted: "Always sad to get on here to read horrible stuff about someone you care about. There is that old saying tho if you ain't got s**t nice to say then f**k you."
We don't think that's quite how the saying goes Liam, but we get the gist.
