Liam, originally from Bushbury, shot to fame after appearing on ITV’s talent show The X Factor in 2010 at the age of 16, forming part of hit boy band One Direction.
The father-of-one was sadly pronounced dead in Buenos Aires on Wednesday, aged 31, after falling from a third-floor of balcony at the CasaSur Hotel.
People from around the globe have been left devastated by the news of the singer’s death, including in his home town of Wolverhampton where residents spoke of their “shock”.
A vigil has now been planned to remember and “say goodbye” to Liam. It is due to take place on Sunday at 4pm at Chamberlain Square in Birmingham city centre.
