Liam Payne is headed back home to England weeks after his death. The 31-year-old fell to his death from a third-floor balcony attached to his hotel room. While investigators are still looking into the circumstances around Liam's death, the star's body was allowed to be flown back home to be laid to rest.

According to the Buenos Aires Times , a flight carrying the former One Direction member left the Argentinian capital at 1:58pm local time. A video online shows Liam's father, Geoff Payne, at the Ezeiza International Airport before he boarded a plane. The grieving father has been in the country since Liam's death on October 16 helping investigators and visiting the hotel where his son died.



He also spoke to fans outside the hotel who created a shrine there for Liam after his death. Before Liam's death, a hotel employee called emergency services to report a guest, who turned out to be Liam, was allegedly acting aggressively in the hotel lobby and in his room. "We have a guest who's off his head on drugs and is destroying everything in his room.

We need someone to come," the hotel employee said on the call. "We need you to send someone urgently because, well, I don't know if the guest's life is in danger," the person continued, "They must be in a room that has a balcony. And well, we're a little bit worried he'll do something, that he'll put his life at risk.

" Liam's funeral is set to take place soon after the body arrives back in England. A source claimed that the funeral will have "a series of song tributes" because the late star "loved singing and making music until the end." "Liam's funeral is going to be packed with A-listers as he was so well-loved in the showbiz community, and so many of them are so sad about his tragic death," a source told Radar Online, "His family wants to keep his farewell low-key and respectful, as it's what Liam would have wanted as he was so down to earth.
