Liam Payne’s Sister Nicola Remembers Singer: ‘You Were Truly Too Good for This Earth’

Liam Payne's sister Nicola mourned the late One Direction singer, writing that he was "too good for this Earth." Read her tribute.

On Monday (Oct. 21), five days after the One Direction star died after falling from the third floor of his hotel room in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Nicola shared a carousel of photos of herself with Liam and other members of their family on Instagram, including snaps of him interacting with his niece, Ffion. Nicola went on to praise her “brilliant” baby brother and defend him against public misconceptions about his character, writing, “Unfortunately this cruel world is always [too] quick to judge someone from a few 5 second clips, they then think it entitles them to be able to speak like they know you.” In the days since his death, countless friends, fans and family members have posted messages of grief, including all four of the musician’s former bandmates: Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson and Zayn Malik.
