Liam Payne‘s funeral is reportedly set to take place ‘next week’ with star’s body ready to be repatriated to the UK following lengthy police enquiries into the 31-year-old’s death.
The ex-One Direction singer died after falling from the third floor balcony of a Buenos Aires hotel last month.
Two days after his passing, Liam’s body was taken in by the British cemetery in the Argentinian capital as investigations into the circumstances around his death began.
An autopsy in the wake of his death determined that the 31-year-old’s cause of death was the 25 injuries sustained during his fall.
Now, three weeks later, the necessary paperwork to allow for the singer’s body to return home has been completed, according to Argentinian paper La Nacion.

Initially, local media reported that Liam’s Dad, Geoff, had been told it would take less than a week to repatriate his body.
However, Argentinian authorities have taken longer than anticipated to conclude their investigations.
Just last week it was reported local police raided the Casa Sur Hotel where the fall occurred as they followed up on allegations that staff had sold Liam drugs in the hours leading up to his death.
Prosecutors have since explored the theory that Liam was in ‘a state of semi or total unconsciousness’ during an apparent drug-fueled episode on the morning of his death.
Liam had been in Argentina with long-term girlfriend Kate Cassidy, with the influencer sharing in a touching online tribute to her boyfriend that they had planned to tie the knot next year.
Kate had left the couple’s holiday to return home to the US two days prior to Liam’s death.
The singer’s funeral is expected to take place in St. Paul’s Cathedral in his native city of Wolverhampton.
