Cheryl Tweedy was joined by her Girls Aloud bandmates as she attended the funeral of Liam Payne.

A month after the talented singer's tragic fall from a Buenos Aires hotel, stars convened in Buckinghamshire to pay their respects.

Alongside Cheryl, who shares son Bear with Liam, were Nicola Roberts and Kimberley Walsh, as well as celebrities such as Liam's One Direction colleagues Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson, and Zayn Malik. Rochelle and Marvin Humes were in attendance, along with Simon Cowell and DJs Scott Mills and Jordan North.

Liam's girlfriend Kate Cassidy attended too, as a horse-drawn carriage carried Liam's coffin, decked with floral tributes reading 'Son' and 'Daddy'.

Following Liam's passing, Cheryl expressed her grief on Instagram: "Liam was not only a pop star and celebrity, he was a son, a brother, an uncle, a dear friend and a father to our 7 year old son. A son that now has to face the reality of never seeing his father again."

The 41 year old shared her immense concern for their child's future encounters with the media: "What is troubling my spirit the most is that one day Bear will have access to the abhorrent reports and media exploitation we have seen in the past two days. It is breaking my heart further that I cannot protect him from that in his future", reports Chronicle Live.

"I am begging you to consider what use some of these reports are serving, other than to cause further harm to everyone left behind picking up the pieces. Before you leave comments or make videos, ask yourself if you would like your own child or family to read them."

Taking aim at some of the more invasive reporting on Liam's passing, she concluded her remarks: "Please give Liam the little dignity he has left in the wake of his death to rest in some peace at last."
