In a heartfelt revelation, Kelly Osbourne expressed her deep concern for Liam Payne, stating that he was “crying out for help” before his untimely passing last month. The former One Direction member tragically died at the age of 31 after falling from the third floor of his hotel in Argentina, leaving fans and loved ones devastated. Kelly, 40, recounted their last conversation, noting that while she was struggling, Liam was in a relatively good place, showing concern for her well-being.
Kelly emphasized that Liam’s mental health had recently deteriorated, sharing her thoughts in a TikTok video. She lamented, “To be alone in that mental state… and he was crying out for help and nobody helped him.” This sentiment struck a chord, highlighting the heart-wrenching reality that despite his success, Liam was in need of support, which ultimately wasn’t available to him.
In the wake of his passing, a petition advocating for better mental health protections for young artists has garnered over 100,000 signatures. Kelly commented on the proposed “Liam’s Law,” which seeks to establish mandatory mental health check-ups and ongoing support for artists throughout their careers. She asserted that record labels often fail to adequately protect their artists, reflecting on the need for systemic change in the industry.
The conversation also turned to the healthcare providers surrounding celebrities, as reports surfaced indicating that Liam had multiple substances in his system at the time of his death. Kelly pointed out a troubling trend, stating that some doctors prioritize celebrity demands over genuine care. “There are a number of doctors who want to be around celebrities so they give them what they want,” she remarked, expressing her concern for the ethics involved in celebrity healthcare.
Following a painful delay for Liam’s family, arrangements are underway to return his body to the UK, with reports suggesting this could happen by Monday. His funeral is expected to occur shortly thereafter, allowing family and friends to mourn the loss of a beloved figure whose life ended far
too soon.
