It read: “Our hearts are heavy as we mourn the loss of our beloved Camryn, a radiant force whose voice, coy, and bright spirit touched so many. Whether beneath the waves or on stage, she met life with fearless energy and boundless kindness. In the quiet between waves, her memory will surface—bright, bold, unforgotten.”

“Please keep her family and friends in prayer as they navigate this difficult time. Camryn will live on in our hearts forever.”

According to reports, the artist died tragically last week after being struck in Fort Myers, Florida. The star, who went on to tour with One Direction, began her career at just eight years old when she started sharing her talents on YouTube.

Camryn, who was born in Denver, Colorado, in 1999, toured with Cody Simpson and Greyson Chance in 2011. She joined One Direction as a support act for seven US dates on their 2012 Up All Night Tour. The band were a clear fan of hers as they brought her back to complete 63 more shows during their 2013 Take Me Home Tour.

She previously opened up on the experience as she told Teen Vogue: “Going into the tour, I was an unknown artist. It’s a great feeling to be walking around and someone coming up to me and saying, ‘Hey, you did so well!’. It was really exciting for me when that happened for the first time.”

The official obituary described Camryn as “beloved” as a “daughter, sister, fiancée, granddaughter, and friend”. It states she died “far too young, and long before her light was ever meant to leave this world ”.

She was remembered as a “vibrant, fearless, and deeply loved young woman whose compassion, humour, and bright spirit touched every person blessed to know her.”

It comes after Liam Payne’s sister Ruth said ‘the best was yet to come’ in heartbreaking admission following Liams tragic death.

The One Direction star tragically died after falling from his third floor hotel balcony while in Argentina last October. Liam, who was only 31 at the time of his death, left behind a devastated family and a son, who he shared with former pop star Cheryl.

In the emotional post, Ruth told her followers that she was “missing him so much”. She said: “”Oh mate, the best was yet to come. You’re missing so much.”

Ruth’s post comes soon after she shared another tribute on the one year anniversary of Liam’s death. On the anniversary, she shed light on her grief, as well as shared stories about her sibling. A year on, she said she’s been “paralysed” by the grief as she still attempts to navigate her life without Liam.
