Shaq Barrett has shared a gut-wrenching tribute to his daughter following her tragic death.
Arrayah was just two years old when she drowned in their family swimming pool last month.
Police were called to the scene at around 9.30am on 30 April following reports that a toddler had fallen into a pool.
Arrayah, who had only recently celebrated her second birthday a couple of weeks earlier, was rushed to hospital but was later pronounced dead.
