The singer, who tragically passed away at the age of 31, died after falling from a third-floor balcony in Argentina last month. Following the repatriation of his body, accompanied by his father Geoff, the family is now preparing to say their final goodbyes. The funeral is expected to be attended by Liam's One Direction bandmates, including Harry Styles , Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson, and Zayn Malik, as well as his girlfriend Kate Cassidy and music mogul Simon Cowell .
The news comes after three people were charged in connection with Liam's death in Argentina, with the public prosecutor's office alleging "abandonment of a person followed by death" and supply and facilitation of narcotics. Liam's father, Geoff, had previously visited the hotel where his son died, where he was moved by the tributes left by fans. A source close to the family said: "Geoff is living every parent's worst nightmare.
He has been so moved by the outpouring of love and the tributes that have come in from across the world." In the sad events leading up to his death, reports suggest that the beloved father of one — shared with singer Cheryl — was in Buenos Aires for a US visa renewal as well as to watch Niall onstage at the Movistar Arena..
