A preliminary autopsy report has uncovered shocking new details surrounding the death of British singer Liam Payne, formerly of One Direction.
According to reports from US media, Payne suffered severe injuries, both internal and external, resulting in fatal hemorrhaging after falling from the balcony of his hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The Buenos Aires prosecutor’s office is expected to release an official statement with more information soon, while results from a toxicology test are still pending.
Payne, aged 31, had fallen from the third-floor balcony of his room at Casa Sur Hotel in the Palermo district of Buenos Aires just the day before. Speculation has arisen, with some reports suggesting he may have jumped, though local authorities have yet provided no official confirmation.
In a statement, Payne’s family expressed their devastation over the loss: “We are heartbroken. Liam will always remain in our hearts, remembered for his kindness, humor, and courage. We are supporting each other during this incredibly difficult time and ask for privacy.”
There have also been reports indicating that the singer may have been under the influence of drugs, leading to a disturbance in his hotel room. Hotel staff are said to have contacted emergency services for assistance, with a transcript of the 911 call revealing the urgency of the situation. The call, translated from Spanish, described a guest “high on drugs” and “trashing the room,” with staff fearing for his safety.
