1D Members And Other Celebrities Paid Their Respects At Liam Payne's Funeral

On November 20, Liam Payne’s family, bandmates, and friends gathered to mourn the One Direction singer at his funeral. Liam tragically passed away on October 16 after falling from a third-floor balcony at Casa Sur Hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He was 31.

The funeral was held at a church in Amersham, England, a town close to the late singer’s hometown of Wolverhampton. Liam’s parents, Geoff and Karen Payne, were in attendance as well as all his One Direction bandmates, and his girlfriend, Kate Cassidy. Although the funeral was a private event, some fans gathered nearby and there was an area outside for media.

Liam’s coffin was brought to the church via a white horse-drawn hearse with floral tributes that spelled out his family roles, “son” and “daddy.” The One Direction star was a father to his and Cheryl’s 7-year-old son, Bear. There was also a bowling pins and ball floral tribute to honor Liam’s love of bowling.

The singer’s loved ones looked somber as they arrived at and left the service: Here are photos of the celebrities who attended Liam Payne’s funeral. Rest in peace, Liam ❤️.
