Grieving fans have created a petition for a Liam Payne memorial to be installed in the singer’s hometown of Wolverhampton.
More than 2,800 of Liam Payne’s fans have banded together to support the Change.org petition. The appeal implores Wolverhampton council to install a permanent “structure or mural” for the singer, following his recent shock death.
Having been born in the West Midlands city in 1993, fans wish Liam Payne’s hometown to pay permanent tribute to the late celeb. The 31-year-old died after falling from a height at an Argentinian hotel on the 16th October, tragically passing away from multiple injuries including internal and external bleeding.

“This memorial will not only serve as a place to pay respects, but also a reminder of the incredible impact that individuals can make on the world.
“We propose that the city, partnered with local artists, can create a memorial that reflects the spirit and essence of Liam Payne – his roots, his musical journey, and his incredible contribution to the international music community.
“This act of remembrance can provide comfort and solace to those who have been touched by his life and passing.” Liam’s fans back in England previously reacted to the tragic news of his passing by flocking to Wolverhampton to lay flowers and light candles.

Prosecutors in Argentina have since said they believe Liam may have been experiencing a drug-induced ‘psychotic episode’ after taking illegal substances prior to his death.
The upmarket hotel where he was staying has now been raided by police who are reportedly trying to find those accused of supplying him with them.
