Liam Payne died without a will as it's revealed who'll be responsible for his multi-million pound fortune

  • Liam Payne, former One Direction star, died aged 31 after falling from a third-floor hotel balcony in Buenos Aires on 16 October 2024.
  • He died without making a will, so UK intestacy rules assign his estate mainly to his son Bear, with Cheryl Tweedy and lawyer Richard Bray as administrators.
  • Payne's estate had a gross value of £28,594,888 and a net value of £24,279,728 after debts and expenses, which is likely held in trust until Bear turns 18.
  • Toxicology revealed traces of alcohol, cocaine, and antidepressants before death, and criminal negligence charges were dropped against three individuals in February 2025.
  • Cheryl, Bear’s mother and Payne’s former partner, manages the estate to secure Bear’s financial future amid ongoing grief and media scrutiny.
