Payne, 31, passed away on October 16 after a fatal fall from a third-story balcony at his hotel in Argentina, according to local authorities. He is survived by Bear, his only child, whom he shared with ex-partner Cheryl Cole.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Liam Payne\u2019s essage for his son:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In the wake of his untimely passing, a heartfelt Snapchat video, originally shared on Payne\u2019s 31st birthday in August, has resurfaced, offering a touching glimpse into his relationship with Bear. In the video, Payne excitedly spoke about his son, expressing his joy at being a father.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cI didn\u2019t get any dad socks yet,\u201d Payne quipped, smiling at the camera. \u201cBut I am going to speak to my son in a little bit, which I\u2019m really excited about. Bless him.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Payne, who embraced fatherhood after Bear\u2019s birth in 2017, was known for speaking fondly of his son, even though he and Cole made the decision to keep Bear out of the public eye.

He\u2019s a big boy, and he looks like a mini-me, as if we need any more me in the world.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In a previous interview, Payne recalled an emotional moment that highlighted the deep connection between him and his son. \u201cHe did something really cute this week that I have to mention. He was like, \u2018Oh, we need here now, Daddy.\u2019 Bless him. Made me want to cry,\u201d Payne said, expressing the joy and pride he felt as a father.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Payne\u2019s sudden death has left fans and loved ones devastated, with tributes pouring in from around the globe.
