As per CNN’s October 17 report, the authorities reported that Payne's body was found after emergency personnel at the hotel called for help.

Liam and Naomi, who have a 23-year age gap, were reportedly first linked in January 2019. According to a report by Mirror dated October 17, 2024, Liam expressed his admiration for the model by commenting "perfection in a person" under one of her photos on Instagram that same month.
Liam Payne and Naomi Campbell reportedly dated for four months
In 2019, Liam Payne was first linked to Naomi Campbell, and the two allegedly had a four-month romance that ended in April. As per The Standards' April 2019 article, the model ended the relationship because they were "living different lives” at the time.
Their connection reportedly began on Instagram, where they started liking and commenting on each other's photos shortly after their respective breakups. As reported by Mirror on October 17, 2024, Naomi referred to Liam as a 'beautiful soul' while Liam called her 'beauty in a person.'
The pair was first seen together during Nigerian musician Davido's performance at London's O2 Arena that same month. In February 2019, they were spotted dining at a Ghanaian restaurant. Later that night, the two were spotted exiting Annabel's, a celebrity haunt, just minutes apart.
As reported by The Mail on October 17, 2024, at the beginning of 2019, Liam Payne boasted about the "mind-blowing s*x" he was having and that he couldn't "believe his luck" as he was with Naomi. However, Naomi described these reports as "humorous" when questioned about them on The Jonathan Ross Show in March 2019.
When Jonathan questioned her about her romantic life, pointing out that there have been numerous reports lately linking her to Liam Payne, Naomi Campbell remained steadfast and said:
"I never discuss my personal life. I mean, it's crazy it's like one day it's one person, the next day it's another. Who is tomorrow? That's what I want to know… For me I laugh. The stories are incredible, it's humorous… I just get on with my life."
However, Liam, who also dated Maya Henry, later seemingly acknowledged dating Campbell. The question was posed in December 2019 when he appeared on the Bravo talk show Watch What Happens Live along with Glee cast member Lea Michele, who played a game with the former One Direction member.
During the game called "Plead The Fifth," host Andy Cohen asked Lea and Liam three questions. They had the option to either respond or "plead the fifth," meaning they could choose not to answer.
When Andy asked Liam Payne if he acknowledged or denied dating Naomi, Liam Payne opted to plead the fifth. Subsequently, Lea alleged that he had confirmed the dating rumors. However, the Mail reported in April 2019 that Liam and Naomi split up that same month, and the former had started seeing Stella Maxwell, a Victoria's Secret model.
Following Liam Payne's tragic death, fans have flocked to social media platforms to express their condolences and pay tribute to the former One Direction member.
