Cheryl Cole Pays Tribute To The Father Of Her 7-Year-Old Son
About an hour later, Cole took to Instagram to share her own tribute to Payne. Additionally, Cole shared a photo of the late singer lying in bed beside their son. In a subsequent side, Cole wrote:
“As I try to navigate this earth shattering event, and work through my own grief… I’d like to kindly remind everytone that we have lost a human being,” Cole wrote. “Liam was not only a pop star and celebrity, he was a son, a brother… and a father to our 7 year old son. A son that now has to face reality of never seeing his father again.”
Cole explained that “what’s troubling” her spirit is the fact their son will one day “have access to the abhorrent reports” being written about his father amid his passing.
“…I beg you to consider what use some of these reports are serving, other than to cause further harm to everyone left behind picking up the pieces,” she added. “…Please give Liam the little dignity he has left in the wake of of his death to rest in some peace at last…”
