Liam Payne’s behavior reportedly grew increasingly erratic during the final hours of his life, with newly obtained witness statements offering one of the most detailed accounts yet of what unfolded before his fatal fall. Two women who spent several hours with the former One Direction singer on October 16, 2024, described the condition of his Buenos Aires hotel room, his alleged substance use, and the troubling escalation they witnessed before leaving shortly before 4 p.m. Payne died just 67 minutes later after falling from the balcony of his third-floor room at the CasaSur Palermo Hotel. He was 31.

According to sworn statements obtained by the Daily Mail, Aldana Serrano and Lucila Goitea arrived at the CasaSur Palermo at approximately 11:30 a.m. after Payne allegedly contacted Serrano through an escort website. Serrano initially questioned whether she was actually communicating with the world-famous singer and reportedly asked him to prove his identity.

“Liam contacted me via WhatsApp today (October 16, 2024) around 11 am. The whole time he spoke to me in English. He told me who he was and he sent me a video of him. The video wasn’t current; it was him singing,” she told investigators. “He also sent me pictures of him which he took while he was in bed, before we got there.”

The hotel reportedly collected the women’s identification before allowing them to enter room 310, enabling authorities to locate them quickly following Payne’s death. “He was alone in his room. He greeted us warmly and I asked him for payment. We tried to communicate, but it was difficult because he only spoke English and I only Spanish,” Serrano recalled.

The group allegedly relied on a translation application to communicate.

Witness Described Drugs And Alcohol Inside The Room

The women claimed Payne ordered champagne for them and two bottles of Johnnie Walker Black Label whisky for himself. Goitea also alleged that they observed him handling a substance with pieces of tinfoil.

“We saw that he was doing something like crystal meth with bits of tinfoil,” she claimed. “He asked us to get him some drugs, but we didn’t know where to get it because we’re not into that. He started scrounging in the tinfoil bits he had.”

The witness described Payne’s room as heavily disordered, with clothing and drug paraphernalia allegedly scattered throughout the space. “It was a mess. There was tinfoil everywhere with traces of drugs. A drawer was full of it, there was more burned tinfoil on the couch… a lot of clothes thrown around… he smelled of alcohol,” she said.

Toxicology reports later found cocaine, alcohol, and the sedative Klonopin in Payne’s system.

Liam Payne Sang His Music Before His Behavior Changed

Despite the room’s troubling condition, Goitea recalled a time when Payne played music for the women and sang some of his own songs. “He showed us the songs he was working on, then he got bad,” she told investigators.

After approximately two hours, the women reportedly asked Payne for the money they said he had promised them. The disagreement over payment allegedly marked a dramatic shift in his behavior. Payne reportedly offered them his gold Rolex, but the women said they wanted to be paid with money. According to their statements, the singer then smashed the watch and struck the television in his room.

“He removed his watch and flung it against the wall and broke it. He told us he could get ten of those,” Serrano claimed. “Then he started talking in English to someone on the phone and refused to give us his wiring information. I told him we were leaving, he got angry and punched the TV three times. He wanted to rip it open.”

The women eventually went down to the hotel lobby, where staff reportedly attempted to help resolve the payment disagreement. While waiting, Payne allegedly paced through the hotel and repeatedly traveled between the lobby and his room.

At one point, Serrano said he spoke about his son, Bear, whom he shared with singer Cheryl. “Liam came down again. He told me he had a seven-year-old son too, that money didn’t make him happy,” she recalled.

The women briefly left the hotel before returning because Goitea had forgotten some of her belongings in Payne’s room. When they went upstairs to retrieve them, Payne allegedly apologized and asked them not to leave.

“We went up to the room with Liam and the bag was on his coffee table. I went to the bathroom and heard him apologizing to Aldana. He got down on his knees and apologized for giving us a bad time,” Goitea said. “He wanted us to stay in his room.”

Serrano offered a similar account, telling investigators, “He removed his jacket, got on his knees and apologized to me. He asked us to stay, and we told him no. He got angry.”

The women reportedly left shortly before 4 p.m. after ensuring the hotel’s front desk had their information.

CCTV footage reportedly showed Payne’s friend Roger Nores arriving at the hotel moments after the women departed. Nores spoke with the singer in the lobby before leaving, but Payne’s behavior allegedly remained erratic. At one point, another hotel guest reportedly heard Payne yell, “I used to be in a boy band that’s why I’m so f-cked up!”

A separate witness claimed the singer became upset by something on his computer before throwing it to the floor and yelling, “F-ck this sh-t.”

At 4:54 p.m., approximately 13 minutes before his death, surveillance footage reportedly captured three hotel employees carrying an apparently unconscious Payne through the lobby and returning him to his room. Receptionist Esteban Grassi subsequently contacted emergency services, warning that Payne appeared to be intoxicated and that staff feared for his safety because the room had a balcony.

Payne fell to his death at 5:07 p.m. Investigators ultimately determined that the singer was likely in a state of semi or total unconsciousness when he fell due to the combination of substances in his system.

The Women Became Critical Witnesses In The Investigation

Serrano and Goitea reportedly learned of Payne’s death after returning to their apartment and seeing the news on social media. Police contacted them within hours, and both women agreed to give sworn statements. Investigators said they cooperated fully, with both reportedly handing over their phones voluntarily.

A source close to the investigation emphasized the importance of their accounts, explaining, “These sworn statements by the women who were in the room with him on the day he died is the closest we will ever get to the truth about what happened.”

“These statements were given after they spent his last day with him. They were sworn under pain of perjury that same night. They were key witnesses, in many ways the most important. Their story is invaluable in piecing together what really happened to Liam,” the source added.
