‘What a touching tribute to Liam Payne at the #GRAMMYs. His impact on music is undeniable  

On October 16, the members of the band One Direction – Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Louis Tomlinson, and Harry Styles – were deeply affected when their fellow bandmate and friend tragically fell from a hotel balcony in Argentina following excessive drinking and drug use.

Payne openly discussed his battles with mental health problems and addiction to substances, confessing that he had faced intense suicidal thoughts and excessive drug use while he was part of the successful music group.

Five people have been charged over Payne’s death in Argentina.

According to a previous statement from Argentina’s National Criminal and Correctional Prosecutor’s Office, the hotel manager, a receptionist, and a friend of Payne are currently facing charges for manslaughter.

As a lifestyle expert, I’d like to share some recent updates: It appears that Gilda Martin, who is a hotel manager, Esteban Grassi, a receptionist, and my acquaintance Roger Nores are at the center of an ongoing investigation. Furthermore, two other individuals have been accused of drug distribution charges.

Court records indicate that Nores is being charged with manslaughter, as it’s alleged that he left Liam without proper care, aware that Liam was unable to take care of himself and had several addictions.

Additionally, two individuals identified as hotel worker Ezequiel Pereyra and restaurant server Braian Paiz, are facing accusations of distributing cocaine.

The cause of his death, as confirmed by Dr. Roberto Victor Cohen, was due to ‘multiple traumatic incidents.’

At the hearing, Payne, referred to as both a singer and an entertainer, was officially recognized with help from the funeral directors based in Buckinghamshire.

Payne formed part of the popular boy band One Direction, which also included Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Louis Tomlinson, and Niall Horan.

The band were formed on Simon Cowell’s The X Factor before becoming an international sensation.

They split in 2016 after Zayn decided to leave the band. 

After their separation, Payne faced challenges with alcohol and substance abuse. However, he managed to overcome these issues by achieving sobriety at a rehabilitation center in the year 2023.

However by the night of his death he had relapsed and consumed alcohol and drugs, reports suggest. 

Before his passing, he was spotted loitering in the hotel lobby, destroying his laptop and greeting admirers during those final hours.

Ultimately, he ended up being escorted to his hotel room by three individuals, where it’s believed he slipped and fell after losing consciousness.

Following news of his passing, Payne’s father traveled to Buenos Aires to confirm his identity before bringing him home to the United Kingdom.

In November, Cheryl Tweedy, the mother of his son, Bear, and other members of the band One Direction, as well as Payne’s relatives and friends, gathered for his funeral in Buckinghamshire.

Following a break for his band, he embarked on a thriving solo journey, unveiling his first-ever solo album titled LP1 in December 2019. This collection comprised tracks like Polaroid and Strip That Down (featuring Quavo), as well as For You with Rita Ora.
