Over the past year Ashley, 31, Safiyya, 34, and their families have honoured Azaylia’s life a number of ways.

They created a beautiful memorial garden to go and visit, set up a foundation in her name and love to share pictures and videos of Azaylia to remind everyone how remarkable she is.

Tomorrow will mark one year since the former couple, who split last month, lost their baby girl and they plan to do something extra special for their daughter.

Safiyya said: “While we usually try to celebrate her life, this day will be sad.

“We’re going to make the day as special and as beautiful as possible.

“We’ll release three doves to represent mummy, daddy and Azaylia and we’ll bring the family together at her resting place, shed some tears and make our prayers.”

Today Ashley started a 100-mile run to pay tribute to his daughter.

He started the challenge at Azaylia’s grave in Nuneaton, and will finish at Trafalgar Square in central London.

The star shared an update on his Instagram earlier this afternoon.

He told his 1.8m followers: “25 miles deep! ‘Cancer is the biggest killer of children in the UK’

“We’re running for change!

“I love you 𝑨𝒛𝒂𝒚𝒍𝒊𝒂 🫶.”

Azaylia was born in August 2020, then in October she was diagnosed with leukaemia.

Ashley and Safiyya documented their journey throughout on Instagram, but in April 2021, they decided to take Azaylia home after being told she had “days to live”.

The couple did manage to raise over £1 million in less than 24 hours to get Azaylia over to Singapore for life-changing treatment.

However their dreams were shattered when they were told that her tumours had spread and that it was too late.

Sharing the heartbreaking news, Ashley shared on Instagram: “Rest in paradise princess. I will always hold you in my heart until I can hold you again in heaven.”

 Safiyya added: “You are my Angel my heartbeat my soul, RIP my precious baby, you will always be with me like a handprint on my heart.”
