Hundreds of One Direction fans gathered in London’s Hyde Park on Sunday to pay their respects to Liam Payne, the former member of the British-Irish boy band who died on Wednesday after falling from a hotel balcony in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Despite rainy weather, the queue to get in front of the park’s Peter Pan statue — where fans young and old were placing flowers, heart-shaped balloons and letters in memory of Payne — stretched back as far as the eye could see. Minute-long moments of silence were held every hour on the dot, when the crowd got so quiet one could hear a pin drop. Jordi, 24, choked up telling Variety how One Direction helped her find a community during adolescence. “I was thinking about it on the train here, and I think my love for this band has been the only constant that I’ve had,” she said.
