Loss of a One Direction star: A tragic farewell and fan outrage

Liam Payne is a British singer and former member of One Direction, one of the world's most popular boy bands. The band was formed in 2010 on "The X Factor." In 2016, the artists announced a hiatus from their joint career and never regrouped. Each member decided to pursue solo projects.

The night of 16th to 17th October was particularly challenging for Liam Payne's loved ones and fans. He lost his life as a result of a fall from the fourth floor of a hotel. The incident occurred in Buenos Aires. The singer had travelled to Argentina for Niall Horan's concert, a former bandmate. Tragically, his trip ended in disaster. A subsequent investigation revealed that at the time of his death, the artist was under the influence of alcohol and other intoxicants.

On 20th November, Liam Payne's funeral was held at a church in Amersham near London. Over a month had passed since the tragic accident, yet due to the ongoing investigation, the ceremony had to be delayed. The funeral was a private event. Only the closest family members and friends of the deceased attended. His bandmates from One Direction were also present. Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan, and Zayn Malik were all mourning for their friend.

A lively discussion erupted online. A certain fan of the band One Direction decided to compliment new photos of the singers insensitively. The photo report was from Liam Payne's funeral. The girl posted a picture of Harry Styles and captioned it with the words: "he is absolutely the sweetest." Furthermore, she set it as her profile picture.

Many commented critically on her actions: "Did you set a picture of Harry taken at his best friend's funeral as your profile picture?" "You don't deserve to be called a fan of Harry. It's appalling that you share such a painful moment and exploit it as if it were happening on the red carpet," "you have no respect for him."
