Haunting video emerges showing Liam Payne’s final days and hours before death, aged 31

One source is said to have revealed to The Sun that close friends of the singer were planning to stage an intervention before the heartbreaking incident that claimed his life.

“His friends have been worried about him for weeks because he was struggling with his career and wanted to release some new music but he felt he wasn’t as good as his other bandmates, which they kept telling him just wasn’t true. He was just always so hard on himself,” the insider said.

“Then in recent weeks his drinking and suspected drug use started to worry his friends, they were actually planning an intervention, it was that bad.”
