Transcript

00:00Some images out of England this morning that are just really heartbreaking as Liam Payne's funeral

00:06was held. His family gathered there and all of his One Direction bandmates showed up. And

00:16like I said, the family, his girlfriend, Kate Cassidy, was there as well as...

00:21Well, you know, and there's a picture of his parents that is just so heartbreaking.

00:27There they are.

00:27As the coffin is being brought into the...

00:30And you just feel that. You know, it's one of those photos where you just feel that.

00:34Yeah, you can see it on his mom's face.

00:37Yeah, and oh, it's so sad.

00:39Simon Cowell also there. And obviously, Simon, a very prominent figure in One Direction's,

00:45I mean, he created the band. So the fact that he was there only fitted.

00:50We also got photos of his ex, Cheryl Cole, who he shares a child with. They were both

00:55in attendance as well. So a very, very moving,

00:58moving morning. And he was brought in on a horse-drawn carriage.

01:02Yeah.

01:04You know, it's interesting. One Direction, when they broke up, it wasn't all kumbaya by any means.

01:11Even, I mean, look, right before Liam died, it was not kumbaya. And there were

01:16some harsh feelings between Liam and most of his bandmates. Niall, he was still close with. In fact,

01:25as we told you, he was in Argentina initially because he went to go see

01:30Niall's show down there and then stayed a few more weeks before his death.

01:34So we don't have any pictures of the four remaining members together.

01:40They all came in separately. I don't know whether you were overreading that,

01:46but it's one of those moments where they might have walked in together.

01:51And I don't know whether it says something or not, but it is kind of interesting.

01:54We don't know what happened inside the church. And maybe they did have a moment

01:58all together inside the church. But outside, there was never a moment where they all came together.

02:04And there had been rumors for the last several years that there was a rift between the group.

02:08It wasn't really clear who in the group had the rift. But we had spoken to someone about a month

02:13ago, and they had told us that rumors of all of these guys getting back together,

02:18of the whole band getting back together, even before Liam's death, were just not true. They

02:22weren't in a place where a reunion, a reunion tour was ever going to happen.

02:28Yeah, I remember that. Because we actually made some, we made calls on that. But it is just,

02:34I'll tell you, it's...

02:35I got to say, by the way, go back, go to the photo of his parents.

02:40You saw the emotion on his mother's face. His father, I just think about what he has been

02:46through since Liam's death. He went down there. He sat at a vigil and went to the

02:52actual scene where Liam died and has been, you know, dealing with the investigators and

02:58doing everything he can to get all these answers. And so to see this final moment

03:03for him, I just can't imagine what they're going through.

03:06And amid this, obviously, sad, sad day that we're going through today, at least the good news is

03:11that there are three suspects that have been charged or will be charged or in the process

03:16of being charged in all of this. So there's some relief for the family. Also, at the same time,

03:21obviously, of this very horrible day.

03:24Hi, my name is Chris Jones from Tampa, Florida. And yeah, while this is such a heartbreaking loss,

03:28losing Liam, seeing the members of One Direction there really does show how the bond they had

03:33together was really strong. And, you know, even though this is such a sad occasion,

03:37it is so beautiful seeing them honoring him and just, you know, being there and

03:41just celebrating the life he brought to them and the fans.

03:43Yeah. Small solace.

03:46Yes.
