In a heartbreaking statement, Niall Horan has opened up about his grief following the tragic death of his close friend and former One Direction bandmate, Liam Payne.
The Irish singer shared his devastation with fans on Instagram, just two days after Liam's sudden passing in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Payne, 31, reportedly fell from the balcony of his hotel in the CasaSur Palermo Hotel. According to local officials, the singer was pronounced dead at the scene after suffering fatal internal and external injuries. Horan expressed his sorrow, describing Liam as having an "energy for life" and being "the brightest" in every room they entered together.
Horan was the last member of One Direction to see Payne alive, as the late singer had traveled to Argentina earlier in the month to watch Horan's performance at the Movistar Arena. Reflecting on their final meeting, Horan shared his heartbreak, saying, "I sadly didn't know that after saying goodbye and hugging him that evening, I would be saying goodbye forever."
Payne’s passing has left both fans and the music community in shock. On Thursday, the remaining members of One Direction released a joint statement expressing their collective grief. Horan's message extends his condolences to Payne's family, particularly his young son Bear, whom Liam shared with former partner Cheryl Cole.
The circumstances surrounding Payne's death remain under investigation, though reports suggest that hotel staff had difficulty accessing his room in the days leading up to the incident. Authorities have yet to confirm whether Payne's fall was intentional or accidental.
Liam Payne's untimely death has sent shockwaves through the world, leaving behind a legacy as both a talented musician and beloved father.
