Danielle Peazer, Liam Payne’s ex-girlfriend, shared a poignant message on social media just days after attending the former One Direction star’s funeral. Liam, 31, tragically passed away on October 16 after falling from a third-floor balcony in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Danielle, who was in a relationship with Liam from 2010 to 2012, took to Instagram to reflect on the recent events and express her gratitude for the support she’s received during this difficult time.
In her emotional post, Danielle explained how she’s been more private lately, taking a step back from her usual online presence to focus on spending quality time with her daughter, Mia, and her family. She acknowledged that while she has posted less frequently, her actions have attracted more attention, and she thanked her followers for their patience and understanding. “Thank you for being patient with me whilst I take a minute for myself,” she wrote. “I’m grateful for all the love sent my way and am making the most of this quality time with my baby girl and the rest of my family.”
Danielle also shared a heartfelt message for those struggling with personal challenges. She reminded her followers that “everything is just a phase” and offered words of comfort to anyone going through a difficult time. This message of hope resonated deeply with her audience, who have been supporting her since Liam’s untimely passing.
Liam’s funeral, which took place in the UK, was attended by his family, close friends, and several well-known figures, including his One Direction bandmates Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik, and Niall Horan, as well as Simon Cowell and James Corden. Danielle had previously opened up about the shock of Liam’s death, revealing that she wasn’t “mentally strong enough” to process the news at first. However, she later returned to social media with a tribute to him, reflecting on their shared memories and the impact he had on her life.
In her tribute, Danielle emphasized that while Liam was adored by millions as a global superstar, he was also a son, a brother, a friend, and, most recently, a proud father. “His most important role and something he was the most proud of out of all of his monumental successes was that he was a father,” she wrote. She also expressed her sympathy for Liam’s son, Bear, and his family, acknowledging the deep loss they are facing. “The thought that there is a now a child growing up without one of their parents is heartbreaking and unfair,” she added.
Danielle concluded her post by reflecting on her final conversation with Liam, in which he expressed his happiness for her new life with her partner, Sonny, and their daughter. “Receiving a message from you a couple of weeks ago expressing your happiness for the love I found with Sonny and Mia is something I’ll cherish forever,” she said. The heartfelt post was a touching tribute to both Liam’s legacy and the special memories they shared.
