Louis Tomlinson Promises Liam Payne He’ll Be A Great ‘Uncle’ To His Son Bear In Tribute

Louis Tomlinson is mourning the loss of his former One Direction bandmate. Following the tragic passing of Liam Payne, who was found dead after falling from a hotel balcony in Buenos Aires on Oct. 16, Louis took to social media to pay tribute to his friend. “I feel beyond lucky to have had you in my life but I’m really struggling with the idea of saying goodbye. I’m so grateful that we got even closer since the band, speaking on the phone for hours , reminiscing about all the thousands of amazing memories we had together is a luxury I thought I’d have with you for life. I would have loved to share the stage with you again but it wasn’t to be,” he wrote to Liam. “I want you to know that if Bear ever needs me I will be the Uncle he needs in his life and tell him stories of how amazing his dad was.”
