Liam Payne’s sister Ruth shares emotional tribute on six-month anniversary of his tragic death

Ruth Gibbins, the sister of the late Liam Payne, has posted a heartfelt tribute to the One Direction star on the six-month anniversary of his tragic passing.

Liam died on October 16 at the age of 31 after falling from a third-floor hotel balcony in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Ruth marked the somber milestone with an emotional message on social media, expressing the deep grief she continues to feel since his death.

In her post, Ruth shared vivid memories of her brother and described the overwhelming challenge of living without him. "Living without you is impossible, so for now, I exist," Ruth wrote. "I miss you loudly, quietly, and in all the moments in between." She went on to recall moments of joy they shared, like laughing together while attempting to recreate something from YouTube, but acknowledged the sadness that now colors every memory.

Ruth also reflected on the nature of her relationship with Liam, sharing how they would regularly speak about music and his plans. She fondly recalled his pride in showing her new songs and how he would play them during their mini 1D concerts. Ruth expressed that despite the profound loss, she continues to find solace in the memories, hearing Liam's voice in her heart, and feeling his presence in different ways.

Following Liam's death, Ruth had previously shared another emotional tribute on Instagram, speaking about their close bond and the laughter they shared. Liam’s funeral in October was attended by all four members of One Direction, marking the end of an era for the band. However, insiders suggest that the members of One Direction, including Louis Tomlinson, have moved on from the group and are focusing on their solo projects.
