Liam Payne's drama teacher says she was 'humbled to have him in her life' after his tragic death as she recalls the hilarious moment he bought his pet TURTLE into school


The One Direction star plunged from the third floor of the Casa Sur Hotel in Buenos Aires on Wednesday, and died instantly from multiple injuries.

Speaking to ITN on Thursday, teacher Jodie Richards said that she always remembers Liam's 'silly jokes', and recalled the hilarious moment he excitedly brought his new pet turtle into school. Payne's girlfriend, Kate Cassidy, had returned to Florida four days prior to his death, telling her followers 'I just needed to go home' after their planned 'five-day trip' was extended to two weeks. It comes after Argentine media, including major broadsheets, published troubling images believed to be taken from Payne's suite which shows white powder, burnt foil and a smashed up TV screen.
