The late influencer Liam Fitzgerald‘s girlfriend, Jamie Lyn Rin, is publicly revealing the details of her grief in the wake of his untimely death at age 29 following a motorcycle crash.
“Hearing the trauma surgeon tell me you didn’t make it was the most painful moment of my entire life. A moment that still doesn’t feel real,” Rin wrote via an Instagram tribute on Monday, November 2. “I keep wishing this is all a horrible dream, and that somehow I’ll wake up and you’ll still be here.”
Rin announced on Saturday, October 31, that the OnlyFans content creator died as a result of “severe injuries” he’d suffered as a result of the crash, which she said took place “on October 30th at approximately 2 AM.” Very few other details about the crash have been publicly disclosed at the time of publication.
“Having to say goodbye to you was absolutely gut-wrenching,” Rin recalled on Monday. “There are no words for the pain of losing someone you love so deeply and so suddenly.”
She continued, “You were so special to me, Liam. You were the love of my life, my person, and someone I truly believed I had so much more time with.”
Rin looked back on both the highs and lows of her and Fitzgerald’s relationship, referring to him as “the most handsome man I had ever seen.” She praised him for making her feel like “the luckiest girl in the world” throughout their relationship.
“Like all of us, Liam made mistakes, but what mattered was his willingness to grow, make things right, and never give up on us,” she recalled. “He showed through his actions that he wanted to be better, and he never stopped fighting for what he wanted.”
The model revealed she and Fitzgerald had hopes of “leaving Miami” and “moving somewhere quieter” where they could buy a farm.
“There were adventures waiting, memories yet to be made, and so much to look forward to,” she wrote. “A future we were both so excited about.”
Concluding her poignant post, Rin added, “I love you. I’ll always love you. Not a day will go by that I won’t think of you, miss you, and wish you were here.”
The late content creator’s family paid tribute to him earlier this week as well, highlighting his “incredible” work ethic and empathy for those in his life.
“He was talented at just about anything he tried and so proud of the life he was building and everything he accomplished,” his family’s statement read. “He loved filming, creating, and editing videos to share his experiences and inspire others. He wanted us to believe that no matter how hard life gets, you can always get back up and become a better version of yourself.”
His family acknowledged that Fitzgerald “battled with alcohol on and off and knew it was hurting him,” urging anyone facing similar struggles to seek support.
“If you’re fighting that battle, please stay strong, reach out to your loved ones, and ask for help,” his family wrote. “You don’t have to fight alone. Keep going. He wasn’t perfect, and never pretended to be. But he always strived to grow and do better. He had dreams, ambitions, and so much more life to live.”
Fitzgerald built a large following of more than 1 million followers via Instagram. In addition to his OnlyFans subscription content, Fitzgerald offered fitness and social media coaching,
