One Direction #7 Spaces between them

[account70032]

I’m horrified that photos of Liams body have been posted online and I’m not talking about the photo a few days ago of his arm , I’m talking about photos of his full face and body after he passed away have been posted online. Who took those photos and shared them online?? I was on Twitter just scrolling through the explore page part and all of a sudden those photos pop up with absolutely no warning and at first I thought let these photos be fake although it would be crazy if someone could be that sick in the head to create fake photos like that but I guess in the world we live in today that is possible but the photos aren’t fake they are real and I can’t believe how disrespectful and awful that is that those photos have been out to the public that’s so wrong , Liam and Liams family deserve as much privacy and respect as possible and it’s wrong for those photos to be put out there.

let the man live? he's destroying property! He's an adult and needs to figure how to live as one.

What a sad way to look at things.

I’m not blaming his girlfriend or saying she should have stayed there or put herself in danger. Nor am I saying she could have foreseen this.

But if you care about someone sometimes you need to put them first. She’s not responsible but clearly he didn’t have good people (not just his gf) around him.

Disagree as sometimes there comes a point with addicts where you cant do anymore, I'm sure his poor parents will be wishing they couldve

It’s sick - there’s so many comments on his gf socials saying ‘say something!’ ‘We need answers!!!’ ‘People deserve to know what happened.’ The delusion is scary…

I think his girlfriend and bandmates have bigger issues right now than updating their instagram accounts
Nobody needs answers other than those close to him, his family and friends. Not Joe public.
Some people have absolutely no shame.

I have family members who are friends with Niall Horans family. Lived on the same estate. My uncle used to go to the pub with Niall's Dad. Very grounded family. My cousin got invited by Niall to a concert and to the after party...made his year!!!

Only a few days ago I was watching videos of liams most recent behaviour/actions and thinking this man is acting so erratically and you could tell he was abusing drugs. I was literally thinking he will be dead soon but hoping that surely he would get the support he needed again as it was so clear to me, an outsider how bad things had gotten. Obviously im not sure of what was left of his close friends/relationship with family but this is so desperately sad.

I don’t dispute what Maya has alleged but I think Liam has struggled for years with alcoholism and drug use and that had completely changed his personality and caused him to do a lot of things I’m sure sober him would never of dreamed of doing. I don’t think he’s had the healthiest of relationship with women, thinking of the comments Danielle peazer has made over the years and the fact she and Sophia smith are friends now etc

The timeline of events from the hotel are hazy but it does appear something tipped him over the edge very suddenly, and I think ultimately he jumped from the balcony during a drug/alcohol fuelled rage

It does make you wonder why Liam and his team (assuming he has one) are being so quiet about this. Allegations of sexual harassments are serious stuff, and if even an iota of that isn’t true, why hasn’t Liam/his team made statement?

Innocent until proven guilty but Liam’s got a lot of damning accusations against him right now.

 

[julylyly]

Is Niall now going to get accused of being cold and detached despite echoing the same sentiments as Harry and posting in the same format? Or is it only Harry who gets accused and compared when in the midst of grief?

People are being a little odd about the posts they've put up and the pictures used. He's only just passed and as other posters have said they werent all as close to him as they were previous.

 

[Bettyboo2475]

Liam is the most vulnerable, as he doesn't appear to have a lot of support. He relies on the fans as you can see from the reaction he got from Niall's fans. He's dabled publicly with drugs and alcohol and is really struggling. I agree he is very unlikeable but the damage was done at a young age and his behaviour now could stem from that.

Maya Henry Was Engaged to Pop Star Liam Payne. But Their Relationship Was No Fairytale: 'I Was Very Naïve' (Exclusive)

Maya Henry is releasing her debut novel 'Looking Forward,' which she says is based on "true events," and talks to PEOPLE about her "painful" abortion experience.

people.com

This…doesn’t paint Liam in a positive light at all, even if some of what she wrote is pure fiction or exaggerated version of real life events. It’s based on her relationship with Liam after all; there’s no mystery who the fictional couple in the story represents.

There was so many red flags in that relationship, and they were all from what I can observe as a random stranger on the internet. The age gap and the power imbalance really showed in this relationship. The fast progression of the relationship wasn’t healthy—Liam was possibly love bombing her. While I never thought he had anger issues or was abusive, but at the same time it doesn’t strike me as all that surprising (and that’s the sad part). The abortion ultimatum is…messy. Very messy. And icky. I’m sure there were many other issues in the relationship that a more mature person would run away from, but I’m just sad at this tiny sliver of revelation.

I hope she got the help she needed and I hope Liam did too.

am I the only one that finds this incredibly disrespectful? I thought we left this “womaniser” image in 2012. The fact that he got that title aswell after the whole Caroline flack thing when he was in fact groomed by her makes me feel sick to be honest.

 

[girlinbrum]

Many of his fans are so young that this ks going to hit hard. I was 28 when Stephen Gateley died and was inconsolable:/

That man lives on cigarettes and booze you can absolutely tell. He looks like he smells too. Sorry 🫢

 

[HeadlessPostman]

So funny how now everybody "looooves him and wished him well along"

The hypocrisy of it all!

RIP Liam Payne. You will always be remembered </3

 

[sleepflowers]

I find it so cringe when anyone (famous or not) acts like they are too good for their own past. Louis needs to realise he would be nowhere without 1D, he would never have made it in music otherwise

Unfortunately when someone doesn’t want help it’s almost impossible to do anything about it, they need to want to be helped. There are many events that ultimately contributed to this, Simon Cowell working those boys into the ground being one of them, but at the same time no one is really to blame.

Replied to the wrong post, was meant to be a reply to the one you were quoting.

This is the thing isn’t it, he experienced such a high level of fame at such a young age, when the band split him and some of his other band mates just became irrelevant over night seemingly.

I do think he had a hard time accepting that without the band his career wasn’t going to have him souring superstardom the way it did whilst the band was together.

And I think that the way 1D were worked to the bone and the lack of support they had during their time as a group massively contributed to this, he was so young getting so famous so fast, of course the poor guy would have a mental snap. I’m sure I read somewhere that he was comparing himself to Harry as well, insinuating he didn’t have what Harry had so couldn’t make it the same way. That’s just sad.

I think truthfully, he’s been let down by everyone in his team. He’d obviously given up and was just accepting his addiction and wasn’t at rock bottom just yet, so wasn’t seeking help yet. He looks like a shell of himself in every tiktok he appeared in with his girlfriend. It’s such a shame.

Not saying it's right but wasn't he underaged when he first met Cheryl?

Don’t get me wrong, the whole thing is massively icky but I don’t think him auditioning in front of and meeting Cheryl whilst underage is directly comparable to ACTUALLY dating someone under 18.

 

[gabbysolis]

I don't think it was intentional. they showed up at different times

It was definitely intentional, everything was staggered.

Sorry haven’t read the full thread so might have been discussed, what has happened to Liam?! are these photos real??

 

[bellbells16]

So tragic, what an awful way to find out, how were they not told sooner before it made the headlines

Because it was main news on Sky within an hour and a half of him dying. That’s no time at all in the chaos of something happening. It would normally take a few hours for cops to contact the British Embassy etc to get next of kin details.
