Former One Direction member Liam Payne rarely demonstrated inhibitions while speaking out about his mental health struggles and alcohol addiction before he tragically fell to his death from an Argentina hotel balcony on October 16. The following investigation further shed light on the involvement of drug abuse in his case, leading to an untimely death that shocked the music world earlier this month. And now, a new report from Page Six has implied that the tragic star who was just 31 when he fell three stories, apparently under the influence of drugs , has also overdosed a few years ago.
Multiple sources told the outlet that the 1D star overdosed and had to be revived at least once even when he outwardly appeared well and alive but was battling drug addiction behind closed doors years ago. However, what particularly “shocked” the singer’s colleagues and friends was that his manager brought him on board the Netflix reality show Building the Band shortly after he returned from rehab. A senior music insider also asserted that they had previously been informed that the “Teardrops” singer had overdosed at least twice.
The first source insisted that a lot of concerned looks were exchanged between people behind the Netflix show, which was meant to bring Liam under the same roof as Nicole Scherzinger (who helped put One Direction members together as a band during the old X Factor days) and Kelly Rowland.
