What did Liam Payne do to his ex? Maya Henry lawsuit drama explained in wake of One Direction star's untimely death

Amid the news of Liam Payne's untimely death on October 16, attention has turned to the legal drama involving his former partner, Maya Henry. As reported by The Daily Mail on October 14, Maya had issued a cease and desist letter just days before the incident struck.

Maya Henry reportedly accused Liam of contacting her constantly using multiple iCloud accounts. Earlier this week, she even talked about it in a TikTok video. In the clip, she could be heard saying:

"Ever since we broke up he messages me, will blow up my phone, not only from his phone, it’s always from different phone numbers too, so I never know where it’s gonna come from."

She added:

"He'll create new iCloud accounts to message me – it’s always a new damn iCloud account. Every time I see one pop up on my phone I’m like, 'here we f***ing go again.'"

Maya also alleged Liam Payne didn't just reach out to her endlessly but also contacted and bothered her mother. In a more severe accusation, Maya alleged that Liam forced her to get an abortion done.

The former couple confirmed their relationship back in 2019 and broke up a few years later, in 2022. Since then, they had been together in an on-and-off manner, as reported by Metro.

Liam Payne died after falling from the third floor of a hotel room in Buenos Aires, as confirmed by police.

Liam Payne previously blamed himself for his breakup with ex-partner Maya Henry

Following the death of Liam Payne, his former partner Maya Henry has faced intense online hate. However, the former One Direction member had previously blamed himself for the split. In 2021, during an appearance on the Diary of a CEO podcast, the singer said:

"I’ve just not been very good at relationships. I’m just not very good at them so I just need to work on myself before I put myself on to somebody else."

He then added that he felt he got into that situation in his last relationship. The former couple broke up twice in their relationship. One happened in June 2021, after which they reconciled in October 2021, only to break up again next year.

The recent allegations made by Maya have attracted special attention. One of the most severe allegations that she made was that Liam was "preying on his One Direction fans." According to Maya, Liam Payne reportedly told her that he was in contact with the fans due to their strong loyalty. She added:

"He's the one that is constantly doing weird sh*t, and also, might I add, he literally said the reason he has all these people on his damn Snapchat... is because they're loyal."

In the TikTok video released earlier this week, she reportedly blamed his fanbase for approving his alleged actions and never holding him accountable.

While Liam had spoken positively about his relationship with Maya multiple times, the model clearly seemed to have a different perspective with all these accusations.

This situation has made her vulnerable to massive scrutiny following Liam Payne's death. However, she has also received support from several netizens for speaking up about the alleged abuse.
