But Safiyya will be thinking about Azaylia a lot over the festive period, and on Christmas Day she will visit her daughter’s memorial garden, which she and her ex, Ashley Cain – Azaylia’s father – created in memory of their late tot.

When asked how she will spend Christmas, the aesthetic practitioner, 37, told us: “I’ll be with my mum, my stepdad and my brother and my nephew, but I always go on my own to Azaylia’s garden.

“I’ll spend a bit of time there on Christmas Day.”

Safiyya recently broke her silence after ex-professional footballer Ashley – who she split from 11 months after Azaylia’s death – announced the arrival of his second child with his new girlfriend.

Ashley, 34, who is also a dad to son Aliyas Diamond, who was born in January, confirmed the birth of son Atlas Diamond Cain in late November, admitting he is “bursting with pride and excitement”.

Speaking exclusively to The Sun at the MBCC Awards in the Hilton Birmingham Metropole, Safiyya sent her blessings to her ex.

She told us: “For me, I know he is an amazing dad, and he always will be an amazing dad.

“He’s just really blessed, and I hope he enjoys every moment of it.”

When asked if she will send a present to celebrate Atlas’ arrival, Safiyya added: “In time. When everything is very new and very early, it’s still taken a lot of time to adjust myself.

“I think step by step, as that journey grows and I become more braver and more courageous, I can welcome more things into my life.”

Ashley and Safiyya – who trained as a dental nurse – started dating in 2017 and they welcomed Azaylia into the world in August 2020.

However, tragedy struck when she was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukaemia at just eight weeks old.

The couple hit the headlines while raising awareness of Azaylia’s plight, but she passed away six months after her diagnosis.

While Ashley is in a new relationship, he has not confirmed the identity of his partner. Safiyya remains single.
