Damn...

Sounds like he could have off'd himself, with lots of crazy "suicidal" thoughts, etc...

But hearing there is some speculation about his life. and the related.

Hmmmm.

LIAM PAYNE ONE DIRECTION STAR DEAD at 31 ... Fell from Hotel Balcony



Liam Payne is dead after a fall from his hotel balcony in Argentina ... TMZ has learned.

The former One Direction singer died Wednesday evening. Several witnesses at the hotel where he was staying in Buenos Aires tell us Liam fell from his room on the 3rd floor of the CasaSur Palermo Hotel. We do not know if it was intentional or accidental.

TMZ has seen a photo showing Liam's body on the deck at the hotel with tables and chairs nearby, and you can clearly see his tattoos -- a clock on his left forearm, and a scorpion on his abdomen.

Witnesses say this happened shortly after 5 PM in Buenos Aires ... and that Liam had been acting erratic in the hotel lobby earlier -- he smashed his laptop, and had to be carried back to his room.

Police and other first responders are all around the hotel now ... and authorities have put up a red tent over the body as they begin their investigation into Liam's death.

He had been in Argentina recently for a Niall Horan concert earlier in the month, and the 1D bandmates actually reunited at the show.

Liam was only 16 years old when he joined One Direction ... and the group became the biggest boyband in the world after their 2010 launch on "The X Factor." The band ultimately broke up in 2015, and he was considered one of their main songwriters.

As we reported ... Liam revealed in June 2021 that he struggled with alcohol and prescription drug addictions at one point when One Direction was on tour, and things got so bad he had "severe" suicidal thoughts.

Earlier this week, there were reports about Liam's ex-fiancée Maya Henry alleging he'd left her after asking her to get an abortion. Her attorneys had been trying to send him a cease-and-desist letter to stop contacting her.

It's unclear, at this point, if that triggered his erratic behavior at the hotel.

Liam was only 31.

RIP

My exact thing I was about to say

[dmbrocker]

Couldn't handle Harry having a more successful solo career than him.

I didn’t read any of the other posts above but apparently he recently had an issue with an ex that resulted in separation. Being said, you don’t just accidentally fall off of the story balcony. 31 years old this guy was out of his fucking head and deliberately took a spill.

What should I play in his honor?

How about Tom Petty's "Free Fallin'"?

[TravisBicklesMohawk]

Sounds intentional. And if you throw drugs and alcohol in the mix, there you go.

Terrible tragedy though. Dead at 31 is pretty effed up.

my daughter used to be a huge One Direction fan.

took her to see them live years ago, it was a good show.

she's moved on to other things, musically, since then, but she was sad to hear this.

Wow that's pretty mean from you. Especially considering how much celebrity deaths normally impact you.

I've heard that one. Didn't know it was One Direction.

I’m just stating a possibility. And I’m no 1D fan, but yeah, it’s pretty sad what happened to him.
