Liam Payne, the late American singer and songwriter who began his solo career in 2016, has been left to mourn his fans, family and former bandmates after his sudden death.
The 31-year-old singer’s father, Geoff Payne, suffered deep trauma as he traveled to Argentina to bring his son home following his tragic death.
The former singer of One Direction died after falling from his hotel balcony while on vacation in Buenos Aires.
Liam’s funeral took place last week at St Mary’s Church. His father paid a final tribute to the singer with his family on Wednesday.
As some photos show, Geoff stayed by Coffin’s side because it seemed very difficult for a broken father to see his child leave forever.
A person close to the family revealed to Mail Online: “Geoff is a lovely, lovely man. He struggled with Liam becoming famous. It was Simon who gave so much to Liam, but also the one who took him away when he was so young.
Liam Payne rose to fame at a young age, when he was just 16 years old. After his time on the most famous series The X Factor, everything changed when he started touring and traveling around the world.
“I don’t think we see it enough. Much is said about the mind and feelings of the mother. But dads feel it too, especially at 17, we would like to have this son around us. Geoff shared.
Geoff Payne further expressed how he wished for more typical father-son moments, like wanting to buy Liam his first nice beer and so many other heartfelt wishes that remained unfulfilled.
