Former One Direction star Liam Payne was posting on Snapchat just hours before his death in Buenos Aires.
The 31-year-old singer died outside a hotel in Argentina’s capital, after falling from the third floor of a hotel, police said.
On Snapchat, he spoke to his followers about his plans for one of his days on holiday, saying it was a “lovely day in Argentina” and he planned to play polo.
The videos appear to be posted days after they were filmed, as they feature Payne’s girlfriend Kate Cassidy, who uploaded videos of her return to Florida on social media earlier in the week.
“Today, we ride. We’re going to ride some horses,” he said, in one of the videos.
“Think I’m going to play polo again, which is going to put me out of action for about six weeks.
“It’s so hard to do, number one, my back and my neck from swinging that hammer around… or mallet, I think it’s called if you’re in the know.
“It hurts a lot, it’s very tough to do.”

“We literally sleep in every day until like 12,” Cassidy said in the background.
