Liam Payne’s tragic death on October 16, 2024, continues to unfold with new details. Aldana and Lucila, identified by Argentinian journalist Mercedes Ninci, spent time with Payne before the incident. Fellow guest Michael Fleischmann recalled Payne offering one woman $20,000, while an American tourist told The Sun that she witnessed Payne shouting in the lobby and smashing his laptop. The lobby was almost empty, with hotel staff trying to calm him down, as a tense atmosphere built. Authorities are still investigating the fall that led to Payne’s death.
Prosecutors say Liam appeared to have taken excessive amounts of booze and drugs – and they have linked his death to a probable psychotic episode.
