Liam Payne Was Acting Strange
Reports say Liam Payne had displayed erratic behavior in the hotel lobby, smashed his laptop and had to be carried back to his room. The For You singer was in Argentina for a Niall Horan concert where he reunited with his former (One Direction) band mates Louis Tomlinson, Harry Styles, and Zayn Malik. They had formed the band on 2010 The X Factor.
Payne had been struggling with alcohol and drug addiction since 2011 and suffered from severe suicidal thoughts in one of the tours with One Direction. His death comes after speculations that he left his ex-fiancee Maya Henry after asking her to get an abortion. She had even got in touch with lawyers to stop Payne from contacting her.
