Former members of One Direction reunited for the funeral of bandmate Liam Payne, who tragically died after falling from a hotel balcony in Buenos Aires.

The private service took place at St. Mary’s Church in Amersham, with Payne’s parents, friends, and fans in attendance.

The funeral location was kept secret to avoid large crowds, but local people and fans gathered nearby to pay their respects.

Payne, who left behind a son, had struggled with mental health and substance abuse after the band split in 2016.

Prosecutors in Argentina have charged three people in connection with his death.
