The hours leading to Liam Payne’s death in Argentina: What we know
As a longtime admirer of music and the stories it tells, I find myself deeply saddened by the tragic passing of Liam Payne. His journey from a young contestant on “X Factor” to becoming a global sensation as part of One Direction was nothing short of extraordinary.
Additional information is surfacing about the events leading up to Liam Payne’s unfortunate fall from a third-story balcony at a hotel in Buenos Aires, which occurred on Wednesday.
31-year-old former One Direction band member, recognized for his work with the group, was tragically discovered deceased in the hotel courtyard at CasaSur Palermo. Unfortunately, emergency responders were unable to restore life.
Here’s what we know.
Why was Payne in Argentina?
31-year-old vocalist had visited Argentina about fortnight prior to his untimely passing. According to his posts on social networks, the journey was intended to back up his ex-bandmate Niall Horan for a performance during the October 2nd concert tour at Movistar Arena.
He mentioned, “It’s been some time since my conversation with Niall. I’d like to clear up a few points with him, not out of any animosity, but merely because it’s important for us to discuss things.
Payne was accompanied by his girlfriend, Kate Cassidy, during his travels, but she returned to the United States two days prior to his demise. On TikTok, she shared: “Our initial plan was for a five-day trip, which turned into a fortnight’s stay. I felt the need to return home.
What is the singer’s background?
Payne and his musical companions achieved popularity at a tender age. When he was just sixteen, he made an appearance on the British talent show “X Factor.” The judges believed he would collaborate with Horan, Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, and Louis Tomlinson to establish One Direction. This band, mentored by renowned producer Simon Cowell, didn’t win the competition but quickly gained massive popularity. They also amassed numerous hits, such as “What Makes You Beautiful” and “Steal My Girl,” before taking a break in 2015 following Malik’s sudden departure.
As a die-hard fan, I’ve always admired how Payne, much like his ex-band members, ventured into solo stardom. His catalog is filled with hits such as “Strip That Down,” “Get Low,” the collaboration with J Balvin on “Familiar,” and the duet with Rita Ora titled “For You.” In 2022, in an interview with Logan Paul, Payne expressed some dissatisfaction towards his former bandmates, claiming to be the most successful member of One Direction and expressing dislike towards Malik.
As a passionate moviegoer and music lover, I’ve always been open about my personal battles, particularly with mental health, prescription pills, and alcohol. The whirlwind of fame surrounding One Direction was overwhelming, and I turned to alcohol as a means to numb the intensity. In 2023, after almost three months in a rehab facility in Louisiana, I spoke candidly about my struggle with alcohol abuse. In a heartfelt eight-minute video shared on YouTube in July of that year, I proudly declared I was six months sober.
He once discussed his then 7-year-old son, Bear, who he had with singer Cheryl Cole during their relationship, which ended in July 2018.
He mentioned, “There’s little sense in me being a father if I have nothing valuable to share.” To this point, I haven’t felt like I had much to offer beyond… showing love for him.
What happened leading up to his death?
As the days counted down to my sudden passing, there were reports suggesting I was grappling with legal matters related to another ex, the Texan model Maya Henry. We started dating and became engaged following my separation from Cole, until 2022. It was claimed that Maya had issued a cease-and-desist order against me, alleging I persistently contacted her, as People magazine reported.
On October 6th, Henry asserted on TikTok (without directly mentioning Payne) that a former partner persistently contacted him, his mother, and her via numerous phone numbers and iCloud accounts, asking “Does this kind of behavior seem normal to you?
In May, Henry published “Looking Forward,” a work of fiction that draws inspiration from real-life experiences during her engagement with Payne.
She pointed out during the ‘The Internet Is Dead’ podcast discussion, if you’re dealing with something fact-based, every detail needs to be accurate and nothing should be omitted.
On October 2nd, Payne journeyed to Argentina for the concert of his bandmate Horan from One Direction, sparking joy among some fans at the prospect of another Payne-Horan collaboration.
As a dedicated cinephile, I was thrilled to catch a glimpse of Payne in a viral video from the recent concert at Movistar Arena! The excitement was palpable as he warmly greeted fans, shared laughter, and even playfully danced the Macarena with them. What a memorable moment for all involved!
On a recent Wednesday, it appeared that Payne was captured on Snapchat stories (which have since been removed) enjoying breakfast with Cassidy, describing his day in Argentina as “wonderful.” However, the exact timing of the video is uncertain, as Cassidy had departed for the United States two days prior to this.
City officials and local law enforcers stated that prior to his fall from the balcony, Payne appeared to be acting in a confrontational manner. They suggested he may have been intoxicated or under the influence of some substance.
Later that day, police received an emergency call from a hotel worker asking for help with a guest.
The worker told Reuters that he was in the process of tearing apart the entire room, and asked for another person to be dispatched.
They believed the guest’s life was at risk because of the balcony in his room.
According to Alberto Crescenti, who leads the state’s emergency medical services, Payne tragically passed away due to injuries sustained during a fall, leaving no hope for revival.
According to a representative from the Safety Department of Buenos Aires city, they stated that Payne apparently leaped from the balcony of his room. Upon arrival, the police heard a thump and discovered Payne’s body in the hotel’s inner yard, as per the representative’s statement.
