Just heard on the news abroad he fell from the third floor off a hotel in Buenos Aires, if true it's very sad as he was so young and seemed like a lovely guy

Oh my god this is incredibly sad. I am 25, and some of One Direction songs was the music of my youth.

My heart goes out to his son'ss, and also the members of 1D.

Just saw this in the Times - awful news, he was only 31 ☹️

No33 · 16/10/2024 22:56

Very tragic if true

TheSnugHare · 16/10/2024 22:56

I’m extremely upset

I’ve been seeing lots of videos of him lately where he’s clearly high as a kite, sad for son- he’s only young.

Really? Where?

Hungrycaterpillarsmummy · 16/10/2024 22:57

From twitter it looks like he was posting on Snapchat half an hour ago...surely the police can't have contacted his family yet? This is a horrendous way to find out.

FlowerTink · 16/10/2024 22:57

Its on sky news now and on the tv

MinervaMcGonagallsCat · 16/10/2024 22:57

Very sad

TERFtown · 16/10/2024 22:58

TMZ claim to have seen a photo of the body, with Liam's distinctive tattoos. I doubt they'd lie about this.

Oh that's awful! The press have no morals.

Miguelo · 16/10/2024 22:58

How unbelievably sad. I know it had been reported that he’d had some demons over the last few years.

his wee boy. 😢

Uselessatbeingaperson · 16/10/2024 22:44

No age. Has the news been verified?

Seems so.

His little boy is only 7😥

loropianalover · 16/10/2024 22:59

TMZ have posted snippets of a picture of him lying on the deck as proof 🤢 how horrific. Reports are saying he smashed his laptop in the hotel lobby and was escorted up to his room and then fell from the balcony in a drunken/intoxicated accident.

Mrsdoyler · 16/10/2024 22:59

What was going on with his recent ex. I know she was talking very badly about him publicly

SabreIsMyFave · 16/10/2024 22:59

God I hope this is fake news! Shock

It seems to have happened late afternoon so I assume the family were told

TMZ say it happened just under 2 hours ago. I agree that I hope his family were able to be contacted first.

As an aside, I wouldn't recommend the TMZ article. It has (cropped) pictures - nothing graphic but pretty unnecessary in my opinion.

It's so ghoulish! It's a young man who is a father and son and already photos circulating, media breaking stories before (it seems) his family were told.

Julieace · 16/10/2024 23:00

Watching Sky News now. Shocking death, young and talented guy.

HalfWayDown · 16/10/2024 23:00

TMZ have posted the photo of the body, well his arm. Seemed a bit much!

He hasn’t looked in a good place recently, lots of videos circulating chewing his face

NigelHarmansNewWife · 16/10/2024 23:00

The Argentinian news article states it was clear from his injuries that he couldn't be resuscitated and he had an injury to the base of the skull.

So very young. His poor family.

We shouldn't know this.

Poor Liam

Yes I've seen that on TMZ. What poor taste to post even partial photos of his dead body. 😓
