It seems that things are not going too smoothly for Liam Payne at the moment, especially when it comes to his music career. The 31-year-old singer, who rose to fame as a member of One Direction, has reportedly put his second solo album on hold due to ongoing personal drama.
After One Direction went on hiatus in 2015, Liam signed a solo record deal and released his debut album, LP1, in 2019. However, the album received mixed reviews and only peaked at number 17 on the UK Albums Chart. Now, five years later, plans for his second solo album have apparently been scrapped.
Earlier this year, Liam released his single "Teardrops," which failed to make it into the UK top 30. Not long after, he also split with his manager, Roger. A source told The Sun, "Things are tough for Liam at the moment. His former manager Roger stepped back earlier this year. He was a steady hand for Liam and he appears to be struggling without his guidance. Things have started to seem slightly erratic, with plans being made before they are cancelled last minute."
The source continued, "Liam had been doing really well on his second album but now it's completely on pause. Liam is telling people now he has no idea if it'll ever be released." In addition, it is also reported that a planned documentary about Liam's career has been axed.
Earlier this year, Liam shared in an interview that his second album would be more personal and that every song would be a story from his life. However, it seems that the album is now on hold as he deals with personal and professional challenges.
This all comes amid allegations from his ex-girlfriend and former fiancée, Maya Henry, that he has been repeatedly contacting her since their break-up. Liam and Maya began dating in 2019 and got engaged in August 2020, but they split in 2022. Since then, Liam has been dating influencer Kate Cassidy, while Maya has been focusing on her recently published novel, "Looking Forward," which is about dating a popstar.
Earlier this week, Maya shared a video on social media where she made several claims about Liam's alleged behavior towards her, saying he has been "blowing up my phone" with messages. She also claimed that he has been messaging her mom and friends. The Agency has reached out to Liam's representatives for comment.
It's clear that Liam is going through a tough time right now, but he has promised fans that there is "lots more to come" in the future. In an interview earlier this year, he said, "This time, the scariest part is that every one of these songs is a story from my life. And they're really close to me. I hope people feel that through every song, that I actually felt whatever it is you're feeling right now listening to this."
He also shared that he has put a lot of thought and emotion into his new music, saying, "We've rewritten a lot of these songs based off the idea of where we're going with this and also how I'm feeling as a person. I used to show up to sing a song, then go. Absolutely not this time. We're going to have fun with this."
Despite the challenges he is facing, Liam remains dedicated to his music and his fans. It's clear that he is going through a difficult time, but he is determined to keep moving forward and create music that truly reflects his personal journey. We wish him all the best and look forward to hearing more from him in the future.
