A witness named Bret Watson, whose interview has been included in the documentary, has spoken out about the haunting experience and described it as something he will “never forget.”

He recellaed, “We happened to be looking out of the window of our hotel at the pool area to show [our wedding planner] the view from the hotel.”

The eyewitness continued, “We saw Liam fall… and so we immediately rushed out on the balcony to see what it was and when we looked down we could see that it was Liam laying on the ground.”

Bret explained that he believed Liam died immediately. Before concluding, he described the incident as “heartbreaking” and “haunting”, adding that he would never forget it.

Liam Payne was laid to rest on November 20, 2024, at a private funeral in England.
