and people keep talking about what he was posting, when it’s been explained it was all scheduledI don’t usually post on this thread and wouldn’t say I’m a 1D fan but I like some of their songs and I rooted for them when they were on the X Factor.
I woke up at about 11:30pm the night before last to have a drink and checked the time on my phone. I couldn’t believe the headline that he’d just died. It really is a shocking death as others have said, the nature of his death is harrowing. His poor, poor son who was sleeping soundly whilst the world found out before he did that his dad was forever gone. I hope he has lots of support around him and I’m sure that Cheryl will protect him from the headlines.
The hotel staff were in an impossible position. Let him swim in the pool and see him probably drown. Take him to his room, knowing he has a balcony and risk falling. That was clear from the transcript of the 911 call that the manager had significant concerns for his welfare. I hope the staff are also supported in light of how the events unfolded. Truly tragic.

Am I missing something? He posted a picture of him on stage, not of him doing anything that was even slightly related to the way he died?
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?
To me it looks like he’s sat on a diving board above the crowd; yes he’s on stage but the parallels to the way he could have died are a bit eerie to me. Like I said in my original post it’s probably just me feeling a bit odd about it all.
Said this on the Liam thread and reposting here, but the people slagging off the girlfriend for leaving Argentina are pissing me right off. What if she’d stayed and he’d killed her instead of himself in his violent rage? Then they’d all be asking why didn’t she leave an abusive situation.
Poor girl can’t win - just like we can’t discern anything about their relationship from her TikTok videos.

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.
I get it, but I don't agree with the criticism of the photo either.
Someone has gone through and delete a load of photos on his instagram which I find strange? Why would they do that?
Easy there tiger! just voicing my opinion. Go start a hashtag #poorharry
Agree and also what if she’d been high as well and been arrested in Argentina… I’m so glad she wasn’t there. It’s horrible enough for her as it is and I’m sure she’s filled with guilt.
No he deleted all of his pictures a few months ago when he was announcing ‘Teardrops’
Going back to the difference in Harry's statement compared to Louis and Zayn -
To me, Harry's reads as if it was written by a PR manager, or at least written by him but run past a PR lens before posting, whereas Louis, Zayn and Niall's statements feel more raw. But I don't think that's surprising, given Harry's status. It reminds me of when people over analyse Taylor Swift's Instagram captions and I always wanna say... do you actually think she is running her own Instagram page?? I would honestly be surprised if Harry managed his Instagram page at all. That's what social media managers are for.

He obviously doesn’t manage his instagram account because of times like these when people are legitimately calling him ungrateful or unfeeling for a statement about a friend that died less than two days ago. Just really disgusting in my opinion. There was virtually no difference between his statement and Niall’s but people have jumped on his, to prove what exactly? They’re grieving harder and “better” for a man who they didn’t know? Harry’s an awful person for posting a statement of grief and not wanting to commodify it? It’s unbelievable.

Yeah I do agree, I guess people think that Harry being a 'bigger' celebrity gives them leeway to ridicule things like this. It's pretty gross.
The other boys statements definitely do feel a lot more personal they have spelling mistakes etc and obviously they all used a photo of them with Liam but I don’t see anything wrong in Harry’s post either if none of them posted they would get told they don’t care, then when they post their statements people are finding fault also so I don’t think they can win tbh they’ve all left a lovely tribute to Liam and they will all be absolutely devastated over this 
Maybe Harry wants to keep his more intimate, raw feelings for himself, and not share them with the world.
In time he might say more, or write songs, but he doesn't owe any of us his feelings about Liam right now, or ever.

The thread title is very poignant now.
The sad reality is something like this was bound to happen. I remember commenting time and time again on here about louis and Liam. While the other 3 have achieved a level of success they are happy with, I've always thought Louis and Liam hadn't. I was concerned for Louis when the reports of him having to drink before gigs and smashing hotel rooms came out. I do think Louis is in a better place in his life now after his second album and tour, and has accepted that the band isnt coming back. I think this situation will bring him closer to Zayn and in a way will help him heal knowing that was one of his mums final wishes
Liam has just spiralled for the past couple of years. Reports of drugs, cheating, abusing people, constantly reminiscing about the band to the point of making it his whole personality and a need for validation. There was a sense of desperation and it's sad that the witness from the hotel (daily mail) noted the same thing
I always said he should take a step back and try something else. Music wasn't working for him and it must've been difficult seeing the success the others were having. He even told Maya that he resented the success harry had, and it should be him. I feel bad for his family
