A special 'Impact x Nightline' called 'One Direction: Liam Payne's Final Days' will explore his life and his tragic death, which will be on Hulu on October 24.
Liam Payne and his death will be the subject of a new TV special.
An ‘Impact x Nightline’ programme called ‘One Direction: Liam Payne’s Final Days’ will explore the late pop star’s life and his heartbreaking death aged 31 when he fell from a hotel balcony on October 16.
The synopsis reads: “Drugs, a trashed hotel room, and a deadly fall. How One Direction’s Liam Payne tragically died. The boy band singer’s sudden death sparked renewed questions about the dark side of fame. How did the 31-year-old’s brilliant star fade so dramatically?”
Led by ‘Nightline’ anchor Juju Chang, 59, it will feature interviews with those who were close to the star, including former ‘The X Factor’ contestant Mary Byrne, 64.
The former supermarket worker, who was on the same series as ‘One Direction’ in 2010, is one of many who have paid tribute since the news of his death after plunging from a third-floor balcony at the CasaSur Palermo Hotel, in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Writing on Facebook, the singer and TV presenter wrote: “He was such a kind, considerate young man, someone whose talent shone as brightly as his warm spirit.
“From the moment he stepped on that stage, it was clear that Liam was destined for greatness. His voice, strong yet tender, captivated everyone who heard it, and his dedication to his craft was unparalleled.
“But more than his talent, it was his humility and care for those around him that truly set him apart. Even in the whirlwind of the show, with all the pressures and expectations, Liam always found time for others, offering words of encouragement, a helping hand, or a simple smile to lift someone’s spirits.
“He had an innate ability to make everyone feel seen and appreciated, even as his own star continued to rise.
“Tragically, he left us far too soon, leaving a void in the hearts of everyone who knew him or had the privilege of witnessing his talent.
“Yet, his legacy lives on in the music he created and the lives he touched. Liam Payne was more than just a gifted performer—he was a beacon of kindness and passion, and his memory will forever remind us of the beauty of a life lived with purpose, even if it was cut far too short.
“Love you Liam, mammy Mary xxx.”
‘One Direction: Liam Payne’s Final Days’ will debut on Hulu on October 24.
