Ruth Gibbins has revealed a tattoo that seemingly pays tribute to her late brother Liam Payne.
The 35 year old shared a photo collage to her Instagram account on Friday (02.01.26) as she looked back on 2025, and one of the images shows an inking on her arm that reads "11,372 days".
It is believed that references the number of days Liam was alive before the star died after he plunged from a third-floor hotel balcony in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on October 16, 2024, at the age of 31.
A toxicology report revealed that Liam had traces of alcohol, cocaine and a prescription antidepressant in his system.
Also in Ruth's photo collage, she showed a tattoo of three hearts behind her right ear that symbolises herself, Liam and their sister, Nicola Payne.
And there was a shot of a robin perched on a wooden fence in the series of images. It is thought that the bird visits individuals who have lost a loved one.
Ruth captioned the post with: "2025."
Towards the end of December last year, Ruth admitted she "feels like all of him is being removed" after learning that a part of Liam's old school - St Peter's Collegiate Academy - in Wolverhampton, West Midlands, England, is being knocked down.
Taking to her Instagram Stories, she penned: "Hearing part of our senior school is being knocked down and having such clear memories of Liam waiting by my locker to ask for money off me all the time, feels like all of him is being removed from the planet, all the places we've been are changing and he's not here to change with them.
"A thousand tiny losses every single day."
Also that month, Liam's 26-year-old girlfriend Kate Cassidy broke down in tears as she said that her future flames "will have to accept" that she will "always love" the late One Direction boy band member.
In a TikTok video, Kate - who had been in a relationship with Liam for two years before his death - said: "I want to make something clear. Whoever I end up with in my future will have to accept the fact that I will always love Liam.
"I will always talk about Liam. I will always laugh about Liam, I will always cry about Liam."
She continued: "Let me tell you something, Liam Payne was my boyfriend. He wasn't just this famous figure to me.
"It hurts so bad because I am just criticised all the time for speaking about my boyfriend that passed away, the person that I loved and still do love.
"I would never settle for anyone in this lifetime who did not feel comfortable enough with me speaking about Liam.
"Liam was a very big part of my life. He was my best friend, somebody I really thought I was going to spend the rest of my life with, and, obviously, I know one day I'm going to have to move on. I want to get married one day. I want to have kids.
"When a person dies, they die twice, once when they actually die and the second time when you stop speaking about them. I'm not going to have Liam die twice on me. I will love him forever."
