A flight attendant is facing backlash for allegedly acting “callously and callously” towards Liam Payne’s body.
The transport of Payne’s remains from Buenos Aires to the UK was carried out via British Airways. A flight attendant reportedly informed her social media followers that the body of the late One Direction star was among the passengers after being released by Argentine authorities.
She is said to have revealed to her thousands of followers: “Just been told we will be carrying a coffin today.”
They added: “To then discover that Liam Payne’s body and his family were also on our flight was heartbreaking.”
According to sources, this individual allegedly violated British Airways’ strict regulations by revealing details about passengers on a flight departing from Buenos Aires.
An insider told The UK Sun that the person in question has now been suspended from his responsibilities at British Airways.
“This hostess is more concerned about her online social media following than her job,” the source said.
“She had come to the attention of her bosses due to her previous posts. This was a serious data breach, not to mention a callous and callous move to tell the world about her final journey.” Liam’s end for the benefit of her online followers.”
“She will be lucky to fly again with this airline,” the source continued.
In response to the situation, British Airlines stated to the publication: “We are investigating this matter so it would be inappropriate to comment further.”
Payne died on October 16 in Argentina after falling from a hotel room balcony. The cause of death is believed to be due to severe injuries leading to internal and external bleeding.
He was laid to rest on November 20 at St. Mary’s in Amersham and anticipating a potential influx of fans, the church is preparing for the worst by increasing security measures in and around the church grounds.
According to an insider who spoke to Radar Online, “Church authorities are preparing an army of fans to arrive at Liam’s final resting place.”
“There will certainly be a lot of interest in the first few weeks and there is concern that devotees will be tempted to take items left in Liam’s honour.”
According to sources, discussions have arisen about posting security guards constantly around the area. It is said that this enhanced security measure will remain in place for a minimum of the first few weeks until public interest subsides and the situation returns to normalcy.
“The last thing his grieving family needs is the prospect of grave robbers rearing their heads.”
