Liam PayneThe late revered ‘One Direction’ singer died in an unfortunate accident in Argentina in October 2024 at the age of 31. Since the artist died without a will, the fate of the million dollars was in question. With updated probate documents, the high court agreed to name the singer’s 9-year-old son as the sole beneficiary of the $41 million real estate. Here’s a closer look at Liam Payne’s son becoming a real estate beneficiary.
Liam Payne’s son will inherit a million dollar fortune
Liam Payne’s son, Bear Gray Payne, who he shares with former ‘Girls Aloud’ star Cheryl Tweedy, will inherit real estate at the age of 18 under UK law and will be held in trust until then, according to The Sun. The singer did not intend to, was not married or had a civil partnership. Last year, Tweedy and solicitor Richard Bray were named as administrators to collect and preserve his estate in a grant issued in Newcastle.
Rumors about the beneficiary of Liam Payne’s real estate
Payne and Tweedy welcomed Bear in 2017, and a year later, the couple split. The ‘Night Changes’ singer was with his girlfriend Kate Cassidy before his death. Anyone looking to claim real estate after they die has six months under probate rules. Cassidy was not a direct beneficiary, as they did not tie the knot. Moreover, he insists that he never asked Payne for money before it was revealed that he did not have the rights. “And disbelief [asked him for money]. Yes, it’s annoying, but it’s only about thick skin, and I’ll never let anyone tell me what my relationship with Liam was like,” she said in an interview with The Sun, adding, “The only two people who really know how strong the relationship was is me and Liam.”
