Liam Payne’s Final Days to Be Featured in an Upcoming OTT Special

The final days of the late singer Liam Payne will be featured in a new ABC News special set to stream on an OTT platform. It was announced on 16th October that the solo artist and former One Direction member had tragically passed away at the age of 31 after falling from a third-floor balcony at the CasaSur Palermo Hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The Argentinian prosecutor’s office later confirmed that his death was caused by multiple traumas and internal and external bleeding.

Now, an OTT platform has announced it will stream an ABC News special titled One Direction: Liam Payne’s Final Days, available later today (October 24). According to a report by Variety, the special will include interviews with those close to Payne, as well as with Mary Byrne, who competed on The X Factor alongside One Direction.

Earlier this week, it was reported that Payne had pink co**ine and several other substances in his system at the time of his tragic fall. Sources have informed ABC News that a partial autopsy revealed the presence of pink co**ine—often a mixture of met***phetamine, ke**mine, M**A, and other dr**s—alongside co**ine, ben**diazepines, and c**ck. Additionally, a makeshift aluminum pipe was found in the hotel room where he was staying.

Payne’s untimely death has sparked discussions about the need for greater protections for young artists. Songwriter Guy Chambers has called on the music industry to reconsider putting minors in boy bands, noting that Payne was just 14 when he first auditioned for The X Factor and 16 when he joined One Direction during the show’s 10th season.

In another instance, Sharon Osbourne also claimed that the music industry “let down” Payne in an Instagram post.

Osbourne’s tribute to Payne comes after comments from Katie Waissel, who also competed on the talent show alongside One Direction, advocating for increased “care and support for young artists.” Likewise, Rebecca Ferguson, who finished in second place during the same season, honoured Payne while addressing the “exploitation and profiteering of young stars.”

In the aftermath of Payne’s death, Bruce Springsteen remarked that the music industry places “enormous pressures on young people,” while Victoria Canal expressed her feelings of being misled by “the promise of what ‘success’ in this industry is,” as she, too, aspires to achieve the level of success that Payne once had.
