The former One Direction member fell from the third floor of CasaSur Palmero Hotel in Buenos Aires shortly after 5pm on Wednesday evening.
Liam Payne 's poignant last post with his 'mini-me' son Bear has resurfaced following the singer's shock death.
The pair have continued to amicably co-parent and both have chosen to keep their son out of the public eye, keeping his face from view.The star welcomed his seven-year-old son, Bear Grey, with his then-girlfriend Cheryl Cole in March 2017, before the couple split the following year 'We are extremely lucky that Bear has the life that he has in what me and his mum have done for him,' Payne said.
Declaring his 'incredible happiness,' he wrote that he was 'completely in awe of his incredible mother and how she has been the whole way through this', adding she has 'really made his dreams come true.'Nonetheless, parenthood caused fault lines in their relationship which could not be overcome: 14 months after Bear was born, the couple announced their separation.She wrote: 'We are sad to announce that we are going our separate ways.
A source told the publication: 'Cheryl and Liam worked really hard on their relationship – they had troubles earlier this year and were able to get through them. 'Chez kind of made the first move on me if I'm honest. She tickled my hair. I thought"oh you're into this". And now look... a few years later...' he told Radio 1 Breakfast Show host Nick Grimshaw.
And a few weeks later in March, Liam shared a poignant video showing the father-and-son walking through a park together hand-in-hand 'There was always going to be a little bit of tenseness in the way we sort ourselves out, but tell me a relationship in the world that doesn't go through a spot like that?'
Describing Bear as 'a lovely, lovely boy', he praised his ex-partner, saying, 'She is the best mum in the world, I couldn't ask for someone better.' Cheryl – who has reverted to her maiden name – has always been vehemently against drug use after losing a childhood friend, budding footballer John Courtney, to a heroin overdose in 2005 when he was just 21.
'More than anything, I want to say thank you to and his mum for giving me a little bit of freedom to go and get well in that moment because I had to,' he said in a YouTube video. Payne also recently made several rare comments about his little boy, as he commented again on how big he was getting. 'I see him two times a week, three times a week sometimes. And I make sure when I see him, he has 100 percent of my time. I make sure that I'm not on my phone or dicking around somewhere else.'
However, in 2022, the couple officially went their separate ways and just days before Liam's death, Maya had begun to take legal action against the star, accusing him of obsessive contact and 'weaponizing' his fans against her. His final Snapchat posts showed him posing with girlfriend Kate, only minutes before his death, after reportedly falling around 5pm .
The family of singer Liam said on Thursday that they were 'heartbroken' by his death, adding that the former One Direction star will 'forever live in our hearts'. One image showed both Liam and Kate pausing for a mirror selfie together as well as another post where he looked into the camera and wrote: 'Lovely day in Argentina'
Tributes have been paid to the singer, with pictures showing shocked fans gathering outside the hotel after police cordoned off the area, with forensic investigators in white protective suits and blue gloves seen entering and leaving. After becoming one of the biggest pop groups in the world, with five albums and four world tours, they went on indefinite hiatus in 2016.
