She was just starting to see her dreams becoming reality for her R.I.P.
Jo-anne Whyman why did she not exit Grenfell Towers as soon as fire started?
@Irene Davo Why do you keep asking this? What do you think? Have you ever been on the 20th floor of a building on fire? Do you realise this video is about a human being who died and that the people who mourn her are coming here to watch and celebrate her life? Have you ever lost anyone you love? There are many better questions than the one you keep asking.
And again RIP you don't rest in peace in the masterpiece.
She had so much talent at the age of 24. R.I.P😭
R.I.P to my beautiful cousin Khadija.. I'll give anything just to see your smile again 😪
Sarah Conteh I am so sorry for your loss, she was a lovely woman, and the world lost a very talented artist.
Sarah Conteh Rip xx
Sarah Conteh RIP LMAO
URWLCM did u just put lmao u have no respect
Sarah Conteh I'm so sorry for your loss 🙏
This is heartbreaking 💔
RIP Khadija Saye. I cried the whole way through this video. I'm glad she got to see her dream blossom a little before her life was taken.
Thank you for humanising the people of Grenfell
In floods of tears after watching this, she was captivating....I've wasted my 35 years , she made the most of her 25 years 😭😭😭
So much life and spirit. I can't believe she's gone.
+Rosco Pico it wasn't literal obviously...
+Rosco Pico ... no
Am I the only one that's creeped out about how real her presents feel yet she's not here?
onedream321 larger than life itself
onedream321 wonder why she did not leave Grenfell as soon as fire started?

Rosco Pico I mean presence 😁
'presence'
I hate when we lose beautiful people like her this is so sad..
Cried all the way through this. I love photography and hope to do it at university in order to follow her footsteps. Such an aspiring character, thank you Khadija.
This is just sad, she had her whole life ahead of her rip beautiful.
It hits home once again that those were real people living in there... What a wonderful human being. 💚
I knew a few people from this tower, all good, people who are dearly missed
I'm Gambian still proud of you, you gone but never forgotten, RIP
❤
This gave me goosebumps. Rip.
She looks so nice I'm gonna cry she must have been an amazing person
I still can't believe that she died. She had her while life ahead of her and it was taken away from her way to soon by this tragic fire. Rip Khadija. 😭😫😥😢
How devastating to see a young woman do so well in life, and be on the brink of an amazing journey. just to have it all cut short. It makes me cry . She was an inspiration to young people.
So much talent and now it's gone forever. I hope these 3 people will own those pictures forever and pass them on to their next family members
It would be so nice. I just got this video to watch. Still grateful. She was my distant cousin. I live in the USA.

this is so sad wtf:(( rip you brave clever lady
Tahj Brown weather you believe that "it was gods decision" or not, what happened at grenfell tower was horrible!! what sort of god would let so many people suffer like that? it was so easily preventable! it had nothing to do with god it was the governments fault! if they had spent that 8.7 billion on making grenfell safer instead of making it look nice none of this would have happened!
Please don't chat rubbish god didn't cut cost to use cheap terrible cladding man did that.
The first time I watched this was when it was uploaded to Facebook. I cried. Just watched it again and I cried through the whole video again. It’s so sad to know someone so full of life and potential had her life taken away, along with her Mother’s and many others. My heart really aches. Life is truly unfair. Life is fragile. Rest In Peace Khadija
RIP to the Grenfell victims :( their lives were cut short by greedy councils and government agencies :(
Rosco Pico enlighten me then ?
Rosco Pico I don't think you fully understand how this tragedy happened. The cause of their deaths were cos of cheap cladding that caught fire around the building and many people were trapped. This all could've been avoided had the council not put them up or removed them hence it's there fault. That's why there's an enquiry going on.
Rosco Pico maybe they had no choice and couldn't afford elsewhere?
Rosco Pico can't believe you just said that you're so cold. Regardless if 'they' travelled around Europe you shouldn't generalise each and every person there that night. Some could've been genuine and it's not your call to judge who was and who deserves it. These poor souls lost everything including their lives and your here making judgement. You should be ashamed. Hopefully now they can rest in peace and the councils and those responsible should soon be held accountable.
Rosco Pico the very "engine" of this great country is the people and places the government doesn't make it great. If it does then that's your opinion and not everybody agrees. However when I was referring to greedy councils and government agencies it was because of the cheap cladding they put up that had caused the fire and there were over 40 other tower buildings across the countries including hospitals with the same fire risks. They were responsible for their deaths and they should be called greedy and much more. If you don't agree then that's up to u.
Oh this breaks my heart watching this ;( I drive past the Grenfell towers and just feel so sad, but seeing a face behind the chard tower block just really makes me sad. Just when her life was going somewhere and she was achieving! Life is unfair.
This video expresses how khadija loved life had a passion for art her dreams just about to open right before she passed
Rest in peace khadija saye and mother Mary mendy 😔
She was my distant cousin. My mom & grandma we’re so upset. I’ve only met her twice ( I live in the USA).
Even though I was not close, it’s hard watching this. Normally I watch this during the anniversary but I felt like looking at it.
I’m an artist too (drama/film) but to see her almost reach her dream and then just leave. It hurts so damn bad.
I know we weren’t close but I’m so inspired by you Khadijah. I love you. ❤️
I really want to cry!
It's so sad seeing her whole future being taken away! She will always be remembered.
R.I.P your art lives on just like your sole. U will never be forgotten
Why do the good things always get cut short? rip
This is a truly beautiful piece of footage that needs to be shared. Khadija Saye - A tender-hearted lady who will continue to inspire through her work and through this delightful little film. I passed the tower on the tube (Latimer Road) last night. I am so angry for what these innocent people endured. Shame on all those involved in such horrific consequences of social neglect. My thoughts and prayers continue to be with the courageous residents of Grenfell Tower. Never to be forgotten. Such bravery in horrific circumstances. Another government cover-up, and still no rehousing for the majority of the tower's homeless. May God have mercy on the earthly powers that be. They sure do need it. .x.
She had bare talent and now it's gone 🙏🏽
Absolutely heartbreaking, she had ambitions, a whole life ahead of her, rest in perfect peace Khadija Saye, hearts and thoughts are with her family and friends 👼
The saddest thing I watched yesterday. It truly got me thinking.
The government has a lot to answer for, rip baby girl ❤️
The Government don't care - that's the WHOLE reason why that tragedy was allowed to happen.
Western Goddess it's absolutely disgusting smh
I cried when someone died in the UK and am still 😢 I will miss you and your family 👪
This government is full of shit
its harrowing to think a life can end so quickly. i don't know what to write here but seeing her work is incredibly moving. rest in peace khadija you will be fondly remembered ❤
such a talented young lady taken too soon 💛
She is that artist who died in that fire?! Oh my God, this is a rare interview! :O RIP
Heartbreaking #JusticeForGrenfell

RIP❤️ ... your art will always be remembered! ⭐️🦋🌊
I visited Kadija's exhibition at The Biennale in November to pay my respects after seeing the review on the BBC. So tragic her life was cut short at such an exciting time for her RIP
I couldn't help but cry just a young strong spirit taken so soon...
Innilahi wa inna ilahi rajihoun. May God grant you heavenly abode. Ameen. Your legeacy will remain forever.
Allahuma Ameen
This is so sad. What a lovely, talented young lady.
I often think of Khadija. RIP you will never be forgotten.
This is so heart breaking. 💔 RIP 🙌🏾
So very sad to see her so excited, and so full of life and to just imagine what she could have done with her talent, just to know her life and the lives of others were cut so tragically short just because of where they lived. RIP
So sad. This makes me so mad😢
she was so beautiful and talented
Your soul will go on forever , you seemed so infectious but in such a calm way...Im almost certain you’re in a better and more peaceful place than this awful universe. You have that sparkle in your eye
Still an inspiration, continue resting in peace Khadija ❤️
RIP to my distant cousin. Such a beautiful person.
She could of gone really far. This breaks my heart! Her life was just starting
This is so sad 😭 RIP
So sad and i live next to 😢😢😢
Very sad! She had so much to accomplish and she's in my age, It
is heartbreaking 😢
RIP & Ina lilahi wa inalilahi rajoon my darling ❤️ I ain't either religions but with respect to your parents I would pray for both xx
You do know that this saying means "We belong to Allah and indeed we shall return to him" how can you not be Muslim and say this? I'm curious?
The Dusty Foot Philosopher I from
A background similar to Khadija tbh. Both parents are something n I chose no religious path. But I do respect both
Souks onlyjust
I understand that, so you believe there is a creator then?
The Dusty Foot Philosopher the universe is its own creator and so are we by nature. I believe there are superior life forms that may have been confused for gods but they did not create us
The Dusty Foot Philosopher many non Muslims are spiritual. Why do u think otherwise?
Her presence beyond physical death is very surreal. It's like she transcends what happened to her and has left a wonderful legacy. God bless you khadija and Mary, I hope that you receive justice.
God bless this beautiful soul, and everyone else that died in Grenfell Tower. Her presence in the video seemed so real, it's hard to believe that she's gone 😢 What happened at Grenfell Tower was so senseless and should never have happened. Every time I go past the tower on the train, I can't hold my tears back.
I only knew you are short while, but your, kindness, left a lasting impression. R.i.P, you & lovely mum
😇💚🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻
This is heartbreaking💔 r.i.p
This broke my heart
This is such ashame!😭😭😭
R.I.P.P Ms Khadija Saye!!,,, She shall thrive in heaven.

She was 3 years younger than me 😞
Heartbreaking God bless her and all those souls

Bless you and your mum, you were so inspirational ❤ 🙏 to Me and kind 🙏
R.I.P YOU BEAUTIFUL ANGEL,,,,, so very sad her life was took away too soon and all the other poor people who also lost there life's so tragically 😢😢😢😢
Gone but never forgotten
What a beautiful spirit enriching life's your spirit will always live in us. Beautiful Angel.
Life is so short. Always fulfill your God given purpose and ensure you're all saved. R.I.P to this young woman and peace for all her family !
I cant stop crying
This is so sad.
Everytime I remember these families and the people that died I break down and cry no one should have to deal with this heartbreak still 3 years later no justice for the ones who have died 😭😭😭😭😢😥
No doubt a more than fitting tribute to an individual whose life was full of promise : only to get cut short by tragic events - sincerest of condolences to the family, colleagues and friends of Ms Khadija Saye.
Massive kudos to those who made the interlude to a life that is likely to have an influence on Ms Saye's contemporaries.
I lived nearby Runcorn, I think of all those beautiful people lost that day, often &, always ♥
Rest in peace phenomenal lady and the her mum too
