Do we think they're going to say anything? They're surely in shock, and also time zones are a factor too I suppose. Even so, it would be odd for them to say nothing, surely?

I would imagine it is near impossible to get a coherent response from Zayn.
Isn’t he due in tour next week staring US and then UK?
My nephew was going through a mental health break down last Christmas. He rang the police and told them he was going to kill himself. They took him to hospital where he begged to be sectioned because he knew he would do something to himself and the hospital RELEASED him after a few hours because apparently he wasn’t that much of a risk to himself. He tried again three days later and luckily his best friend found him in time. He has bipolar and is borderline schizophrenic and that still wasn’t enough for them.
I'm probably wording this the wrong way but I'm sure there's a part of the boys that feels a sense of relief - this closes the story on 1D for good imo. I can't see them ever reuniting now or even too many journalists asking them about a reunion.
It's a bit like the cast of Friends. There's no pressure on them now to be seen together or to reunite and put on a display for the fandom. They can live their lives now as individuals instead of being tied forever to this juggernaut.

Argentine press apparently don’t give a tit. And apparently on Reddit there’s a c subreddit. Saw it on a Dlist celeb thread that I follow. The housekeeping staff were taking pics of the room after he trashed it. I’m hoping it was whilst he was alive because it’s ghoulish as duck if not. I get these people don’t have as much money as maybe western countries and he’s a celeb, but come on. He’s someone’s loved one. Sick.

I feel you don’t have to post something into the twittersphere/insta/facebook/whatever social media irrelevant media space to let the parents know that he is missed. I’m sure the other 1D members have been in touch with Liam’s family as well as Cheryl. As much as we want to know their thoughts, do we need them? Are we just wanting to get our pound of flesh so to speak? Do we feel we’re owed it to hear them speak about him?
And I think it’s time the reality shows have a lower age limit to spot kids like the 1D boys and little mix going on and being pushed to breaking point. Like another commenter mentioned, all those world tours and albums in so few years isn’t healthy for a grown adult let alone a kid. Where was the psychologist for them to speak to? Was there even one if they ever felt that they couldn’t handle it? We all know that’s why Zayn quit the band. But again it’s a money making machine and what Simon wants, Simon gets.

It’s been really difficult to comprehend what has happened. It still feels so unreal. I’m grateful for the good memories I do have of Liam through the One Direction years though, and the music he wrote, as that is much more of a legacy than most people leave this world with. I think we can take comfort in that he and the other boys gave so much to the fans with companionship and their music when they themselves were going through incredibly difficult chapters in their lives. I have read so many stories of young fans who are only here in this world due to the music, hope and love One Direction gave them. Music is something that connects us all.
I’m sure a statement will come in time from Louis, Harry, Niall and Zayn. They shared so many years together so now need time and space to grieve. They will need support too. Goodness knows what memories Liam’s death will bring to the surface. We only saw the band from the outside; they had an entirely different experience and saw things we did not.
It’s devastating that, should there be a reunion in the years to come, it will look incredibly different to what we had initially envisioned. Boyzone had a reunion of sorts after Stephen died. It just won’t feel the same with three and a newbie would feel like an unwelcome intruder.

This! I am sure they will post a statement at some stage but if they don't then that is totally up to them. It was the same when Matt Perry died and people were ripping into the other Friends cast members for not posting a tribute straight away.
oh totally agree with you

I feel like we dont need 1D or any of his friends or family to put out a statement .If they want too of course I can understand why they may want too but I dont understand how some of the public are expecting it of them or how it even benefits them?
We know what it will say,most of us can only imagine how they feel.They all deserve privacy and no pressure
Ive had such a weird feeling all day - end of an era. I really feel for Cheryl now having to be sole parent of a 7 year old who's just lost his Dad, that wont be an easy job. I don't know how much involvement Liam's family have in his life?
I would imagine the other 4 boys will release a joint statement and then they will decide whether or not to post a personal tribute on social media. Niall and Louis will definitely post something but not sure about the other two, yes they have drifted in recent years but I don’t think they disliked each other and for all we know they could have been connecting behind the scenes. Whatever they decide to post or not post I just hope people don’t send hate and allow them to grieve the way they feel necessary.
Sometimes when you're estranged from someone, their death hits you even harder. Harry is a sensitive soul and I'm sure he's heartbroken just like the other 1D boys. I'm sure their teams will be devising an appropriate and respectful joint response
In my experience (nurse) of treating people who have fallen from a height, any kind of deliberate fall (e.g. jumped and missed the landing) involves jumping feet first.
For someone to fall head first, it's 99% unintentional/misjudgement. Take that up to 99.9% if they fall backwards.
The fact that there are no reports in any media that people attempted to give first aid makes me think that it was the latter, and he was in a condition where the injuries were clearly unsurvivable.
If the TMZ balcony picture reflects where he fell from, it's not actually that high, and I think most people who jumped there feet first would have serious injuries but not ones that were immediately fatal.
The circumstances will be expanded on later, but even with this level of info I am strongly inclined to believe he didn't jump and it was an accidental fall.
yes, this will be the way. I think they will release them all at the same time and probably ask for space. I'm glad Niall's tour is already over, havent heard from Harry for a while, think hes in Italy? no idea about Louis and Zayn.
This sounds so morbid but I never thought it would be Liam. I thought it would be Zayn.
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…
They were worked to the bone. No wonder they took a break and never went back to the band. I also think that they had it incredibly tough as they were the big act during the huge rise of social media. The invasion of their privacy by fans and the demand put on them was insane. I know it set them up for life but they had a tough time. I often think about how batshit crazy people were around the whole Larry thing. That ruined Louis’ and Harry’s friendship. The way fans would harass their girlfriend or anyone around them. Not for all the money in the world.
I think Liam in particular found the comedown from that height of fame hard to adjust to. You could tell that he thought he’d be the huge name out of the band, but I just don’t think he worked for the solo career hard enough. Harry worked. Niall worked. I really didn’t think Niall would have the career that he has now considering he hardly sang in the band. I saw him live a few months ago and you could just tell that he really put in the work to become a better singer and is passionate about his own music. Looking back, Liam really was lost from the end of the band onwards. A sad end.
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 agree… and if the hotel reports were truth about his state, he probably just had no sense of the consequences and it wasn’t intentional. In any scenario, no one owes any answers to the public. One thing is to talk about this, another one is harass the family, gf and friends for info or statements… some fans have no boundaries
Im so sorry to hear your nephew has had such a difficult time and I hope he is well at the moment .When I had pnd and also was pregnant with my 3rd child I had a similar-ish experience .I went to my hospital and told them I was going to take my own life ,the maternity department and my consultant ,several midwives etc were already well aware of my state of mind but there was 0 practical help offered.People would listen to me talk but ultimately I'd be given no practical advice or support.
They only actually do something when its too late imo.
