One Direction mourns Liam Payne at private funeral
A flood of photos from Liam Payne's funeral appeared online. Pictures of the heartbroken and tear-stricken members of One Direction reached the fans. Unfortunately, not everyone was able to respect the difficult situation of the family and friends of the deceased.
Liam Payne is a British singer and a former member of One Direction, one of the most popular boy bands in the world. The band was formed in 2010 on the show "The X Factor." In 2016, the artists announced a hiatus from their joint career and never returned. Each of them decided to pursue solo projects.
The night of October 16 to 17 was particularly difficult for Liam Payne's loved ones and fans. He lost his life as a result of a fall from the fourth floor of a hotel. The incident occurred in Buenos Aires. The singer had come to Argentina for Niall Horan's concert—a former bandmate. Unfortunately, his trip ended tragically. A subsequent investigation revealed that at the time of his death, the artist was under the influence of alcohol and other intoxicants.
The touching funeral of Liam Payne
On November 20, a funeral for Liam Payne took place at a church in Amersham, near London. Over a month had passed since the tragic accident, yet due to the ongoing investigation, the ceremony had to wait. The funeral was a private event. Only the closest family members and friends of the deceased attended. His bandmates from One Direction were also present. Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan, and Zayn Malik—all mourned their friend.
Did a fan gain fame through the tragedy?
A lively discussion erupted online. A certain fan of the band One Direction decided to compliment new photos of the singers tactlessly. The photo report was from Liam Payne's funeral. The fan posted a picture of Harry Styles and captioned it with the words: "He is absolutely the sweetest." Additionally, she set it as her profile picture.
Many netizens criticized her actions: "Did you set a picture of Harry taken at his best friend's funeral as your profile picture?" "You don't deserve to be called a fan of Harry. It's disgusting that you shared such a painful moment and exploited it as if it were happening on the red carpet." "You have no respect for him."
