Lottie Tomlinson shares sweet tribute to late mother Johannah Deakin

Back in December, we were all left devastated when it was announced that Louis Tomlinson’s mother, Johannah Deakin, had tragically passed away following a short battle with leukaemia at the age of 43.

As well as Louis, Johannah was survived by 18-year-old Lottie, 16-year-old Felicite, 12-year-old twins, Daisy and Phoebe, and 3-year-old twins, Ernest and Doris.

Since Johannah’s tragic death, successful make-up artist Lottie and her boyfriend, Tommy, have been widely praised by One Direction fans, with Lottie seemingly putting her glittering career on hold to care for her younger siblings.

Regularly Snapchatting her day-to-day life, Lottie and Tommy are often seen playing with the toddler twins as well as treating the older siblings to meals out as the family club together to get through their tragic grief and heartache.

Lottie has now jetted off on a well-deserved holiday with her boyfriend, but melted her followers’ hearts when she shared a sweet tribute to her beloved mother.

Sharing a picture of a printed photograph of herself with Johannah and Daisy and Phoebe propped up in her hotel room, Lottie explained: “I take her everywhere with me x”.

The starlet was met with praise and support on social media, as fans tweeted how proud Johannah would have been of all of her children:

Lottie’s holiday comes shortly after Louis returned from Los Angeles to his family home in Doncaster to spend time with his younger siblings, explaining that he opted to miss the BRIT Awards on Wednesday night in favour of being with his brother and sisters as he felt that he should “treat them”.

Louis previously took to his Twitter page share his undying gratitude to his fans for their ongoing support for himself and his family following Johannah’s passing, admitting that she’d be incredibly proud of the love that he and his siblings have received.
