Former One Direction singer Liam Payne has died after falling from the third floor of a Buenos Aires hotel, Reuters reported.
According to local media, police received an emergency call from the hotel about an "aggressive man, allegedly under the influence of drugs or alcohol." When paramedics arrived at the scene, the man was pronounced dead.
In 2021, Payne opened up about his alcoholism and depression while touring with the band. "My face got 10 times wider during that time. The best way to protect us was to lock us in a room. What's in the room? A minibar. "It's been going on for years," he admitted. Payne said he was glad the band broke up.
One Direction was formed in 2010. They included Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson, and Zayn Malik. The group was one of the most commercially successful boy bands of all time. One Direction disbanded in 2015.
