Raye has joked her ex-boyfriend will “never forget” her after her blue plaque was installed outside his favourite pub.
The singer-songwriter is celebrating her latest career milestone after she was honoured with the tribute. Blue plaques can be found across the UK and are typically mounted on buildings to commemorate a famous person or event and the associated location.
In a new TikTok video posted on Sunday, Raye proudly stood outside The Nightingale pub on Nightingale Lane in South London as she posed next to her blue plaque, which reads, “RAYE experienced the greatest heartbreak she has ever known here. 27th February 2019.”
The clip showed the 28-year-old singer smiling and laughing with a pint in her hand as she pointed to the tribute.
In a caption to accompany the video, Raye wrote, “Put a nice plaque on my ex’s fav pub so he’ll never forget.”
The star then joked she was in her “dramatic era” as she soundtracked the video with a clip from her latest hit single Nightingale Lane, the heartbreak ballad she released last month.
Raye previously revealed that Nightingale Lane, which appears on her new album This Music May Contain Hope, was a tribute to the area where she grew up as well as the past heartbreak.
In an interview with British Vogue last year, the singer confessed she still hadn’t fully recovered from the split.
She explained, “My last devastating break-up was four, five years ago. I was like, ‘I’m gonna marry him.’ We was together for two years and it ended up not working out. I have never experienced a more crippling emotion.”
Raye has never revealed the name of the person involved in the break-up.
