- 0:00Speaker 1: This Gentleman Being podcast. Hey, that's us, brought to you
- 0:02Speaker 1: by Hello Fresh the experts and Tastes that kiwis love
- 0:06Speaker 1: all right.
- 0:06Speaker 2: Time to level up the show with a bit of
- 0:09Speaker 2: British class and sophistication, our dear friend Givin Gray.
- 0:15Speaker 3: Good morning to you guys.
- 0:17Speaker 1: How you doing.
- 0:17Speaker 2: We've got Megan here as well, given Hivin Yep, yeah.
- 0:21Speaker 3: All very good. How are you doing that?
- 0:23Speaker 1: We're doing all right? We see King Charles is making
- 0:25Speaker 1: his way down this side of the world, bringing his
- 0:28Speaker 1: own blood with him and a couple of doctors. You're
- 0:29Speaker 1: not coming down this way, Gvin.
- 0:32Speaker 3: No, not at the moment, looking to come down soon,
- 0:35Speaker 3: but won't quite have the entourage that King Charles have.
- 0:39Speaker 3: But suffice to say, I think lots of concern about,
- 0:41Speaker 3: you know, breaking his cancer treatment in the middle like this,
- 0:45Speaker 3: and that's why I think the medics are being extra
- 0:47Speaker 3: careful about what's going on.
- 0:49Speaker 2: When you travel, do you travel with your own blood?
- 0:53Speaker 2: Do you know?
- 0:53Speaker 3: I once? I think I went somewhere in Africa and
- 0:55Speaker 3: I was advised to, but no I didn't.
- 0:58Speaker 1: Well really is British carry your own bloody out?
- 1:05Speaker 2: Why didn't you just keep my blood on my body. Yeah,
- 1:07Speaker 2: you guys, you live it differently over there. Some tragic
- 1:10Speaker 2: news also over the last twenty four hours given Liam
- 1:13Speaker 2: pain one direction. What is the reaction over there in
- 1:16Speaker 2: the UK.
- 1:18Speaker 3: Yeah, it's really been one of shock and we've been
- 1:20Speaker 3: getting a sort of drip feed all day. The latest
- 1:23Speaker 3: that's come out of Argentina and what we now know
- 1:28Speaker 3: just in the last of hour or more now is
- 1:32Speaker 3: that we are getting some information regarding effectively the moments
- 1:36Speaker 3: leading up to his debt. Police have said in Buenos
- 1:40Speaker 3: Aires that a preliminary autopsy suggests Liam Payne died from
- 1:44Speaker 3: external and internal bleeding injuries. They say he fell from
- 1:47Speaker 3: a third floor balcony in Buenos Aires and the room
- 1:51Speaker 3: when they went in the room was just apparently completely
- 1:54Speaker 3: chaotic muddle. They found a bottle of whiskey, a lighter,
- 1:58Speaker 3: a mobile phone, and also a prescription drug called clone
- 2:02Speaker 3: nam mazapam. You can get it over the countermedications as well.
- 2:08Speaker 3: But yeah, it looks like this is a very very
- 2:11Speaker 3: sad ending to what had been a man who really
- 2:14Speaker 3: struggled to get to grips with the fame that came
- 2:17Speaker 3: his way when he was aged. Just sixteen.
- 2:19Speaker 1: Well yeah, still, you know, he was very young, thirty
- 2:22Speaker 1: one years old. He's got a seven year old son.
- 2:24Speaker 1: Was just such a tragic circumstance.
- 2:27Speaker 3: Yeah, very much so, and all sorts of messages of
- 2:30Speaker 3: support pouring into him. Indeed, the family, his family have
- 2:34Speaker 3: just issued a statement now a little earlier our time,
- 2:37Speaker 3: saying we're heartbroken. Liam will forever live in our hearts
- 2:41Speaker 3: and will remember him for his kind, funny and brave soul.
- 2:44Speaker 3: And it just ends with supporting each other the best
- 2:46Speaker 3: we can as a family and ours for privacy in
- 2:48Speaker 3: space at this awful time. But around the hotel, dozens
- 2:52Speaker 3: of camera crews, hundreds of messages of support and camels,
- 2:56Speaker 3: people turning up and they've been sort of breaking into
- 2:59Speaker 3: songs that he's signed. Plenty of people saying what a
- 3:01Speaker 3: difference he made to his life. And I know this
- 3:03Speaker 3: can be overplayed, but you know they are often saying
- 3:07Speaker 3: what a great person this was, what a great person
- 3:09Speaker 3: that was when somebody dies, But he did remain I think,
- 3:13Speaker 3: really a genuinely nice person in that. You know. Even
- 3:17Speaker 3: his neighbor in Buckinghamshire, to the west of London reported
- 3:21Speaker 3: that as a seventeen year old. The neighbors said they
- 3:24Speaker 3: were looking after their siblings parents had gone out, and
- 3:26Speaker 3: then intruder was spotted at two in the morning and
- 3:31Speaker 3: set off one of the sort of censors in the
- 3:32Speaker 3: house and they started shouting at the intruder to get
- 3:36Speaker 3: out of the garden. They hadn't got into the house,
- 3:38Speaker 3: but to get out of the garden. At which point,
- 3:40Speaker 3: at two thirty in the morning, Liam Payne, who was
- 3:42Speaker 3: the neighbor, just popped a round and said, is everything
- 3:44Speaker 3: all right? Do you want me to call the police?
- 3:46Speaker 3: And he stayed with them until the police arrived, just
- 3:48Speaker 3: trying to calm them down. And that's what I mean.
- 3:51Speaker 3: Lots of people said he was just a genuinely nice guy.
- 3:54Speaker 2: Have we heard from any of the other one Direction boys.
- 3:57Speaker 2: I say that Harry Staal's mom has posted he was
- 4:00Speaker 2: just a boy with a heartbreak emoji, and obviously that's
- 4:03Speaker 2: quite devastating for them. But I haven't seen any of
- 4:06Speaker 2: the other boys yet.
- 4:08Speaker 3: No, And Megan, he was in Argentina actually in one
- 4:10Speaker 3: of the aries to see Nile Horan and concert and
- 4:15Speaker 3: had been pictured with him smiling and joking, looking really
- 4:18Speaker 3: happy in the hours beforehand. So most of the tributes
- 4:24Speaker 3: have come from different acts, different artists who knew him.
- 4:29Speaker 3: I think we'll probably get a sort of one uniform
- 4:33Speaker 3: statement from the rest of One Direction, and I think
- 4:36Speaker 3: the shock is probably there for all to see on
- 4:39Speaker 3: them as well. Somebody that had risen to this level
- 4:43Speaker 3: of fame with them, had had one pretty successful solo album,
- 4:49Speaker 3: but then the second album. They always say the second
- 4:51Speaker 3: one is the most difficult. Down they were supposed to
- 4:53Speaker 3: be ready and then it wasn't ready, and then his
- 4:57Speaker 3: manage and contract ran out. It'd had some very difficult
- 5:02Speaker 3: last few weeks and months.
- 5:04Speaker 1: Givin Gray are UK, CoRIS, can I ask just really quickly,
- 5:07Speaker 1: He's sixteen years old when he went on Britain's Got Talent.
- 5:10Speaker 1: His life just changed overnight getting put together. What would
- 5:13Speaker 1: it be like, you know, because you're over there in
- 5:15Speaker 1: the UK, they're from the UK. What was the media
- 5:17Speaker 1: scrutiny like through the years of One Direction and for
- 5:19Speaker 1: him even now.
- 5:21Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, they tried to keep them reasonably sort of
- 5:25Speaker 3: safe and secure and away from too much media scrutiny,
- 5:28Speaker 3: but of course as they got older and then as
- 5:31Speaker 3: the band split up, they were really open to all
- 5:35Speaker 3: the media scrutiny that came with it, and Liam Payne
- 5:38Speaker 3: really really struggled with that, and there's no doubt that
- 5:42Speaker 3: that was something that he absolutely hated. He had a
- 5:45Speaker 3: number of high profile relationships and probably that made things
- 5:48Speaker 3: slightly worse as well for him. He had dated the
- 5:51Speaker 3: Girl's a Loud star Cheryl Cold twenty sixteen and she
- 5:56Speaker 3: was actually a judge on the show that he won.
- 5:58Speaker 3: They had a bed son called Bert together, as you
- 6:01Speaker 3: mentioned now age so seven. He also dated the supermodel
- 6:05Speaker 3: Naomi Campbell and a model called Maya Henry, whom he
- 6:08Speaker 3: got to engaged in twenty twenty before they called it off.
- 6:12Speaker 3: The BBC is reporting that there was a cease and
- 6:15Speaker 3: desist letter against him earlier this week from her lawyers.
- 6:20Speaker 3: Quote pertains to alleged egregious contact conduct, but we don't
- 6:24Speaker 3: know any more about that. She posted on social media
- 6:28Speaker 3: accusing him of repeatedly contacting her. Most recently, he was
- 6:33Speaker 3: romantically involved in a US influencer called Kate Cassidy. So
- 6:37Speaker 3: I'm afraid all this will now be poured over very
- 6:40Speaker 3: very closely by the media as that are waiting that
- 6:43Speaker 3: initial autopsy and then the post mortem examination is carried out.
- 6:47Speaker 2: Oh jeez, fame it can be a lonely place. That's
- 6:50Speaker 2: why I always remain in the sewers of celebrity. Keep
- 6:54Speaker 2: things low, that's right. You never want to get two
- 6:56Speaker 2: book given Gray as always really do appreciate your time,
- 6:59Speaker 2: look after yourself over there in the UK, and you
- 7:02Speaker 2: will
