Following Liam Payne's tragic death, his father Geoff traveled to Argentina to retrieve his son's remains. His arrival was met with a heavy media presence, reminiscent of 90s celebrity culture. The event sparked concern for Geoff's well-being and highlighted the intrusive nature of the paparazzi.
But on Thursday a new twist, and perhaps the most shocking of all, in the very sorry tale has come to light.I've reported on Liam and his career for over a decade now - covering the highs and lows and everything in between.Just a few weeks apart in age and no stranger a drink or two myself - on some levels, I could relate to Liam and have always been keen to champion him.
Upon arriving in the country he was swamped with paparazzi in sickening scenes reminiscent of the 90s media frenzies. He said: “I remember him as a 14 year old turning up to audition on The X Factor, and blowing us away singing Sinatra. He just loved to sing.reacted to the "devastating news" on her show and told fans she hugged her own son Woody tight this morning.reflected on his memories with the singer, sharing: "I first met Liam in 2008 with the JLS boys whilst auditioning for X Factor..he was 14 years old..
Alongside photos of the two of them together in their younger days, Charlie wrote: "I am in shock right now. Liam was always so kind to me.In another tweet, they added: "Sending strength to Cheryl and his son Bear. And all the One direction Family. RIP Liam Payne."shared: "So upsetting to hear the news of Liam Payne passing. Sending love and condolences to his family & loved ones. RIP my friend.
described his death as a "tragedy" and said he "made an impression" on her when she was a young girl. So how utterly gut wrenching must it be for them to have received a call from their lawyer informing them Roger - a man Geoff has met and worked with on a number of occasions - has launched a legal attack to the tune of £8.1 million.Roger insists he was simply "a good friend" rather than manager to Liam, though I struggle to see how any "good friend" would proceed to sue the parents of their dead pal for even $1 let alone $10 million.
The authorities have been accused of leaking left, right and centre, from the moment Liam tragically passed away.As expected, the Payne family are keeping a dignified silence and I'm told there will be no public comment on the latest developments.It's the stance they took when an internal emails between Geoff and Roger found there way into US media a few weeks ago.One Direction hunk Liam Payne was only 14 when he met former X Factor judge Cheryl during the show in 2008.
"But they're in different stages of their lives and, after a lot of careful thought, came to a decision that it's best for everyone if they do go their separate ways."
