And the family have dedicated themselves to make Azaylia’s final resting place as beautiful as possible, with Ashley sharing their hard work on Instagram tonight.
In a video taken after dark, multi-coloured lights can be seen glowing around the plot.
There are also several brightly-coloured rainbows shining, and lanterns hanging where Azaylia’s headstone will be.
Ashley captioned the short clips: “We’re making it magical for you baby.
“Goodnight, Princess.”
Safiyya shared a similar clip, telling followers: “The lights are on.”
Yesterday, family rallied around to help tidy the plot, removing deflated balloons and old flowers that had been left by well-wishers.
The devoted parents decorated the spot with orange ribbons, stuffed animals from Azaylia’s favourite film, and fresh flowers – as well as the beautiful lights.

The outing came after Ashley bravely shared his emotional eulogy to Azaylia, which he delivered at her funeral last week.
The star broke down in tears as he paid tribute, ending the speech by singing her favourite Disney song from The Jungle Book.
He and Safiyya were sure to give Azaylia the send-off she deserved, and were moved as locals lined the streets to pay their respects as the horse-drawn carriage carrying her coffin passed.
At the beginning of April, heartbroken Ashley and Safiyya revealed that doctors had told them they could no longer treat Azaylia’s leukaemia, which she was diagnosed with at just eight weeks old.

The family had just raised over £1million for her to get specialist treatment in Singapore when they were delivered the heartbreaking news, with medics finding tumours throughout her body – including on her brain.
In the weeks that followed, Azaylia needed several blood transfusions as she started to cry blood, and suffer nosebleeds – with purple bruises also appearing on her body as her illness meant that her blood could not clot.
She stopped breathing several times and began to suffer seizures in her final days, with Safiyya and Ashley providing their daughter round-the-clock care alongside their close family members.
Azaylia passed away at home on 24 April, with Ashley and Safiyya both paying emotional tribute as they broke the news on social media the following day.
