Damn that’s sad, so young

Christ that is sad… RIP

I had to google who he was, but it’s shit for anyone to go so young.

It's very sad. You never know what's going on in most celebrities lives, but regardless, 31 is far too young for a life to end. Feel sorry for those he left behind, especially his son and family.

Yep, no idea who he was - but 31, particularly with a kid is pretty terrible…

Was he close to any Russians?

From what they were saying on the radio, sounds like he’s had a pretty troubled time over the last year or two. I guess fame at such a young age is a double edged sword….

Yeah he really seemed to struggle the most after 1D split, and he got kinda ridiculed too for various reasons. It reconfirms my long-held belief that being famous is a pretty rough career choice.

He got ripped pretty hard after he commented on Will Smith slapping Chris Rock at the oscars, it looked like he was coked up and talking shite. That’s the last time I remember seeing anything about him tbh.

A shame for his family.

Transcript of phone call released.. guess he had a drug fuelled breakdown. Very sad

Is it odd that there has been no comment from the other One Direction lads???

Harry Styles mum, Niall Horan’s brother but nothing from the lads themselves?

Not really, they’re all pretty private.
