Ashley Cain's girlfriend says 'words can't explain the heartache' after Azaylia's death

Ashley Cain's girlfriend has shared her "heartache" after their daughter Azalyia tragically died.

Azaylia, who was just eight months old, lost her battle with leukaemia over the weekend.

Taking to her Instagram Stories on Tuesday morning, Azaylia's devastated mum Safiyya Vorajee, 34, said her grief "hurts so deep inside" as she shared a heartbreaking message to her baby girl.

In a text post with white font on a black background, Safiyya wrote: "Morning time not seeing your beautiful smile hurts so deep inside.

"Azaylia, you're so beautiful, so pure. I miss you so much words fail to explain the heartache.

"I am so proud of you, every day I will carry you in my heart.

"I know you're looking down on me and all the lessons you've taught me I will keep that with me forever.

"Thank you for everything baby girl xxx."

On Sunday Ashley and Safiyya shared the devastating news that Azaylia had died.

Writing on Instagram, Ashley said: "Rest In Paradise Princess.

"I will always hold you in my heart until I can hold you again in heaven."

In her own tribute, Safiyya wrote: "You are my Angel my heartbeat my soul, RIP my precious baby, you will always be with me like a handprint on my heart."

Azaylua was diagnosed with a rare form of leukaemia two months after she was born in August last year.

A few weeks before she died, the couple had been told she had just days to live.

Ashley had raised £1.5million in donations from the public to fly Azaylia to Singapore for specialist treatment but before they could go, a CT scan revealed that nothing more could be done for her.
