Liam Payne’s last posts just MINUTES before death see One Direction star watching TV and revealing plans for his day

LIAM Payne posted snaps and videos on social media showing him watching TV and talking about his plans for the day just minutes before his death.

The former One Direction star tragically died aged 31 after falling from his hotel balcony in Buenos Aires, Argentina on Wednesday afternoon.

In Snapchats shared within an hour of local news reporting his death, the singer uploaded photos of his food and detailed his plans to play polo.

However, the videos appear to have been filmed days prior as they feature Liam's girlfriend Kate Cassidy, 25, who left Argentina earlier this week.

The American actress uploaded videos of her return to Florida on TikTok saying, "Love Argentina but I hate staying in one place for too long".

"I was just like 'I need to go home.'"

Liam had filmed Kate as they ate breakfast, revealing they had been staying at their friend's home.

The singer speaks to the camera saying: "This is the breakfast table, just enjoying breakfast and coffee even though it's 1pm."

Katie is heard in the background joking that the pair are "losers" for sleeping in so late.

Liam adds: "Today, we ride. I think I'm going to be playing polo again, which is going to put me out of action for about six weeks.

"Honestly, polo, out of everything I've ever done sports-wise, not that I'm taking up polo professionally, by the way, I'm just like, I had a go for some fun.

"It's so hard to do, number one. Number two, my back and my neck from swinging that hammer around, or mallet, I think it's called, if you're in the know, it's polo language."

Later on, he films himself saying: "I look like the Joker, my hair's a bit cray-cray."

Liam goes on to record his girlfriend and their dog watching Jimmy Carr on TV in a different post, asking fans to write a caption for him.

He then poses shirtless with Kate for a mirror selfie, before they pucker up for a video.

The Strip That Down hitmaker admires a painting at his friend Gon's house, where he tells fans he is staying.

"It's a lovely day here in Argentina. Yeah. It hurts a lot. It's very tough to do," he says of playing polo again.

"But we're enjoying ourselves here at our lovely friend Gon's house. Shout out, Gon, wherever Gon is. Shout out, Gon. Big bad Gon."

Liam also admires a painting of a tree inside the home.

He says: "I envy things like this, painting-wise. Once again, shot from the back. It's really beautiful. So yeah, that's what we're doing today."

"This was the first wheel that was ever invented," Liam adds of an ornament inside the home.

It comes as:

• One Direction fans held candlelit vigils outside the hotel
• The singer posted on Snapchat just minutes before his death
• Rylan Clark and Dermot O'Leary paid tribute to the singer
• His ex-fiancée Maya Henry broke her silence after his death
• Liam's girlfriend Kate Cassidy's message before he died
• Harry Styles' mum pays heartbreaking tribute to the star

The pop star was in Buenos Aires for pal Niall Horan's tour when he tragically plunged from the third floor balcony of his hotel room, reported.

Liam was staying at Hotel CasaSur in the neighbourhood of Palermo, local media report.

A red tent was put up over the body as cops launch an investigation into the death.

Cops were called to an "an aggressive man who could be under the influence of drugs or alcohol", local media claim.

But when they arrived, they found Liam dead.

Witnesses said Liam smashed his laptop and had to be carried back to his room following the incident.

The 31-year-old rose to fame through the boyband and then carried on with his own solo career after the group broke up.

Liam was part of the One Direction between 2010 and 2015 and had released one solo album in 2019 - LP1.

The Sun revealed last week that Liam had parted ways with his management and had shelved plans for a second solo album.

And earlier this week Liam's ex Maya Henry called in the lawyers after accusing Liam of repeatedly messaging her, her friends, and her mum.

Liam made his debut as a singer when he auditioned for The X Factor in 2008.

After being eliminated as a solo artist he auditioned again in 2010 and was put into a group with four other contestants to form One Direction.

Liam dated singer Cheryl Cole with the pair having a child named Bear in 2017.

They split in 2018 before he was linked to supermodel Naomi Campbell in 2019.

He had an on-off, three-year relationship with ex-fiancée Maya Henry which was said to have ended for good in May 2022.

The singer had been open about his battles with drugs.

In 2021, he blamed a “pills and booze phase” for bloating his face to “ten times the size”, while also revealing he used to guzzle the contents of his mini bar when band chiefs checked the lads into hotels to keep fans at bay.
