Liam Payne’s death in Buenos Aires shocked fans worldwide, with new reports shedding light on the events that led to his fatal balcony fall. Allegedly, the former One Direction member ordered nine bottles of whisky and 13 grams of cocaine in the hours before his death, according to prosecutors. It has been stated that the singer started behaving erratically after his girlfriend, Kate Cassidy, returned to the United States from their Argentina trip. With this, Payne was left on his own at CasaSur Palermo Hotel.

Prosecutors outlined a detailed timeline, claiming Payne ordered alcohol late on October 15 and again early the next morning. Reports also allege he contacted his friend Rogelio Nores to request drugs and prostitutes. Then, he engaged in destructive behavior in his hotel room, with hotel staff attempting to intervene before he ultimately fell from his third-story balcony, passing from a cranial fracture due to the fall. Toxicology results later revealed the presence of multiple drugs, including cocaine, in his system.
