Jokingly challenging Jack to a boxing match in retaliation, Liam, 27, said: "Someone I happened to be with that was the person that he mentioned at the Brit Awards went in on him for saying that joke at the Brits.
"I take it as a joke, it is what it is, but she was not happy. Jack, you got me in a lot of s*** that night. So me and you are going to do a charity boxing match."
A source added to The Sun newspaper's Bizarre column: "Naomi marched up to Jack and said, ‘You really are a naughty boy'. The pair joked about it and she saw the funny side of it."
As Liam and Winnie arrived on stage, host Jack quipped: "Now it's time for our next award. To present it, a supermodel and supermodel Naomi Campbell's current squeeze.
"His surname's Payne, which is what he'll be in a world of if he crosses her — it's Liam Payne and Winnie Harlow."
Naomi, 50, reportedly ended her four-month romance with Liam - who is now engaged to Maya Henry - after growing "bored".
An insider previously explained: 'Liam and Naomi had a lot of fun together, they got on well and had a laugh. But it just wasn't meant to be. They are going to stay friends – there are no hard feelings with either of them."
