Liam Payne’s ex-girlfriend Aliana Mawla is remembering the One Direction singer.
The model, who dated Payne in 2022 following his split from his ex-fiancee Maya Henry, took to her Instagram Stories to honor the British musician.
“I’m sorry this happened to you,” Mawla wrote on a photo of Payne at a concert looking out over the crowd. “Will forever love & miss you.”
She also shared a photo of her hand and Payne’s hands, which feature his “L” and “P” tattoos clasped together, writing, “Rest in paradise.”
On Oct. 16, Payne suffered a fatal fall from the third-floor balcony of his Argentina hotel. Buenos Aires emergency services chief Alberto Crescenti told La Nación that he had suffered “serious injuries” that were untreatable once responders arrived at the scene.
“Our role was to head there quickly, give medical attention, and try to resuscitate him, but his injuries were incompatible with life,” he explained to the Argentine publication in Spanish. “Based on what the team saw, there was apparently a cranial fracture and extremely serious injuries that led to his immediate death.”
