Justin Bieber is honoring Liam Payne after his death at 31.
The “Yummy” singer, 30, posted a somber tribute to the late One Direction star on Monday, just five days after the latter’s unexpected passing in Argentina on Oct. 16.
Bieber took to his Instagram story and reposted a video of a makeshift memorial created by fans to pay respect to the fallen “Strip That Down” singer.
“Rest easy Liam,” the text over the clip showing handwritten notes, photographs and flowers for the One Direction band member read.
In the video’s voiceover, someone says, “Just remember: you are allowed to grieve as a fan. You are allowed to love someone you’ve never met. You are allowed to admire someone for their art. You are allowed, to cry, to break, to feel like a part of you is gone.”
Payne passed away last week after falling from his third-floor balcony at the CasaSur Palermo Hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina, with experts telling The Post that he appeared unconscious when he plummeted to the courtyard below.
