Liam Payne had left behind an astonishing estate worth millions after his sudden death.
The One Direction alum's ex Cheryl Cole will be overseeing his estate alongside music industry lawyer Richard Mark Bray after Liam passed away without leaving a will.
According to court documents, Liam's estate in the UK is approximately worth $32.2 million after debts settlements and expenses.
Cheryl – who is the mom of Liam's 8-year-old son Bear – and Bray will be managing the estate with limited access until a general grant is made.
In the meantime, she and the attorney are not allowed to distribute any funds from the estate.
