Nagdadalamhati ang mga miyembro ng One Direction ang pagpanaw ng dati nilang kasamahan na si Liam Payne.
"We're completely devastated by the news of Liam's passing," saad ng One Direction sa isang pahayag sa kanilang Instagram, na nagsisilbi ring pinakaunang post sa account ngayong 2024.
"In time, and when everyone is able to, there will be more to say. But for now, we will take some time to grieve and process the loss of our brother, who we loved dearly," saad pa ng English-Irish pop boy band.
Hindi raw makakalimutan ng grupo ang mga alaala na magkakasama sila.
"For now, our thoughts are with his family, his friends, and the fans who loved him alongside us. We will miss him terribly. We love you Liam: Louis, Zayn, Niall and Harry."
Inilahad naman ni Louis sa kaniyang Instagram post ang matinding kalungkutan sa pagpanaw ni Liam, na nahulog mula sa balkonahe ng isang hotel sa Argentina.
"I am beyond devastated to be writing this but yesterday I lost a brother. Liam was somebody I looked up to everyday, such a positive, funny, and kind soul," saad ni Louis.
"And for the record, Liam was in my opinion the most vital part of One Direction. His experience from a young age, his perfect pitch, his stage presence, his gift for writing. The list goes on. Thank you for shaping us Liam," pagpapatuloy niya.
"I wish I got chance to say goodbye and tell you one more time how much I loved you. Payno, my boy, one of my best friends, my brother, I love you mate. Sleep well X," ayon pa kay Louis.
Si Zayn, ikinalungkot na hindi na niya makakausap si Liam, na laging nakasuporta sa kaniya.
"When it came to the music Liam, you were the most qualified in every sense," bahagi ng pagbibigay-pugay ni Zayn kay Liam.
"I lost a brother when you left us and can't explain to you what I'd give to just give you a hug one last time and say goodbye to you properly and tell you that I loved and respected you dearly. I will cherish all the memories I have with you in my heart forever, there is no words that justify or explain how I feel right now other than beyond devastated," pagpapatuloy ni Zayn.
"I hope that wherever you are right now you are good and are at peace and you know how loved you are. Love you bro," dagdag ni Zayn.
"I am truly devastated by Liam's passing," saad naman ni Harry. "His greatest joy was making other people happy, and it was an honour to be alongside him as he did it."
"Liam lived wide open, with his heart on his sleeve, he had an energy for life that was infectious. He was warm, supportive, and incredibly loving. The years we spent together will forever remain among the most cherished years of my life. I will miss him always, my lovely friend," ayon pa kay Harry.
