Liam Payne's ex-girlfriend, Danielle Peazer, has opened up about her struggle to come to terms with the singer's tragic death at the age of 31. She expressed on Instagram that she isn't 'mentally strong enough to face the reality of what has happened' since the heartbreaking news broke.

The former One Direction member died after falling 45 feet from the third floor of the Casa Sur Hotel in Buenos Aires. This incident has led to an outpouring of tributes from fans and celebrities alike.

In her emotional post, Danielle, who dated Liam from 2010 to 2012, shared her feelings of distress and grief. She stated, 'In time I will share more, but right now I don't feel mentally strong enough to face the reality of what's happened.' This period has been particularly difficult for her due to negative remarks from online trolls.

Describing the situation as a 'heartbreaking time,' Danielle added that she needed to grieve privately. She wrote, 'Like all of us, I too am grieving and need to take some time to do that privately.'

In her message of gratitude, Danielle thanked those who have reached out with condolences, saying, 'Thank you to anyone who has taken the time to call, text, or DM sending condolences and offering support. I'm so grateful and it's helped more than you know.'

The couple first met during their participation on the X Factor in 2008. Although they broke up in 2012, they briefly rekindled their relationship in 2022. Currently, Danielle is in a relationship and has a daughter named Mia with her partner, Sonny Jay.

Following the announcement of Liam's death, other notable figures, including Cheryl, Liam's former partner and mother of his child, Bear, also shared their grief and memories. She expressed her sorrow over the loss and asked the public to remember Liam for who he was beyond his celebrity status.

She said, 'As I try to navigate this earth-shattering event, and work through my own grief at this indescribably painful time, I'd like to kindly remind everyone that we have lost a human being.'

The incident surrounding Liam's death unfolded when police were called to the hotel following reports of an aggressive individual. Reports suggest Liam was acting erratically before the tragic fall. Shocked fans have gathered at the hotel, mourning the unexpected loss of a beloved artist.

This tragic event has sent shockwaves through the music world, with various artists from One Direction expressing their condolences and memories of Liam. As his friends, family, and fans come to terms with this significant loss, it highlights the importance of mental health and the impact of online bullying during difficult times.
