Liam Payne's sister opens up: Heartfelt tribute to late star
Liam Payne's sister has broken her silence, posting a heartfelt entry in which she addresses her late brother. Ruth Gibbins reminisces about their unique relationship and the hardships the singer faced.
The aftermath of Liam Payne's tragic death continues to resonate. On Wednesday, a member of One Direction passed away tragically due to a fall from the third floor of the Casa Sur Palermo hotel in Buenos Aires. Despite the immediate intervention of medics, the rescue attempt failed, and the artist died at just 31 years old. The autopsy revealed that the cause of death was "multiple organ injuries" and "internal and external bleeding." The examination identified a skull fracture and 24 other serious injuries that led to his immediate death.
The event shocked not only fans of Liam Payne but also his loved ones. On Friday, his father appeared in front of the hotel where the musician died, laying flowers at the altar created by mourners. Cheryl Cole, with whom the singer had a son, posted an emotional farewell to her former partner.

On Saturday, one of Liam's sisters, Ruth Gibbins, broke her silence by posting a lengthy entry addressing her brother. She begins by expressing disbelief at what has happened.
(...) Liam is my best friend, noone could ever make me laugh as much as him, doing his impressions always had me creasing and he loved seeing how much of a laugh he could get - she writes, adding that she partly learned to drive thanks to her brother:
He moved out when he was 17 to chase his dreams, its this that forced me to finally pass my driving test during the xfactor live show weeks because I couldnt stand the thought of not being able to get to him

Further on, Ruth recalls the early days of Liam's career.
I used to love picking him up from work when it all started, especially after concerts, speeding us away from venues or appearances, Liam plugging in his phone to show me the new songs for albums. Liam loved 1D, he loved his brothers and we talked about it so much.
Liam knew he could call me anytime, any day and I would pick up or that I would always fetch him if he needed to just come home - she continues, adding that she always knew her younger brother would be famous:
Liam was born with music in his veins, it was clear from a very young age he just had that quality that would make him a star
