Cheryl to block son Bear from inheriting Liam Payne’s multi-million pound fortune until he’s at least 25 - Liam Payne died last October after plummeting from a third floor balcony of a hotel in Argent

The 31-year-old, who first found fame through the X Factor, died after falling from the third floor balcony of his hotel, the CasaSur Palermo, in Buenos Aires, Argentina on 16 October 2024. A UK inquest found the star died of “polytrauma”.

Liam Payne's $32.2 million estate has been left to administrators Cheryl, with whom he shared son Bear, and attorney Richard Mark Bray after the singer died in October with no will.
