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 goes on to report that several witnesses noted that Payne had been acting erratically during the day and had to be carried back into his room.
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.
Payne had reportedly been in Argentina for a Niall Horan concert earlier in the month and reunited with his bandmates at the show.
Liam had been dealing with public personal issues recently.
Liam’s ex-fiancée Maya Henry made a bombshell revelation as to why she and Payne had broken up.
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 desist letter to stop contacting her.
An hour before his death, Liam posted a video of himself on Snapchat detailing his life in Argentina.
