The tragic death of Liam Payne in October, following a fall from a hotel balcony in Argentina, continues to make headlines. An eyewitness, Bret Watson, who was at the venue preparing for his wedding, recently shared his account of the devastating incident with TMZ.
Watson recalled looking out of his hotel room window at the pool area when he saw Liam fall. “We immediately rushed out on the balcony,” Watson said. “When we looked down, you could see that it was Liam lying on the ground. He landed face up so we could tell right away that it was Liam and he was motionless.” Watson described the haunting aftermath, noting the sound of the impact as something that would stay with him forever.
In addition to the fall itself, Watson mentioned that he and his wedding guests had noticed Liam acting erratically earlier in the day. According to Watson, Liam had been agitated in the lobby, slamming his laptop and shouting profanity before being escorted out by hotel staff. However, Liam’s friend, Roger Nores, who has been publicly supporting him, denied these reports, stating that Liam had been in good spirits and there were no signs of distress.
In the wake of Liam’s passing, his girlfriend, Kate Cassidy, has honored him with a heartfelt TikTok video, sharing a tribute to the late singer.
