Is Liam Payne OK? Singer posts cryptic message for Maya Henry: 'Don't let someone go'

'I really hope his friends and family are checking in on him and making sure he’s ok,' one worried Liam Payne fan said

In June 2021, One Direction singer Liam Payne called off his engagement with model Maya Henry. The news came around 10 months after the couple announced their engagement. Now after a month, Payne shared a series of cryptic stories on Instagram, making his fans wonder if he is okay.

In a series of Instagram stories, Payne said: "Don't let someone go if you really want to love them even if you have to learn to love them through your own mistakes let your instinct tell you that you need them and keep them close we are always running out of time we never gain it." In another story, he wrote, "F**k me I am wise." In the third story he tagged Maya Henry and in the fourth one he wrote, "I love you, we calm." Payne and Henry were first rumored to be together in August 2018 and in 2019 they confirmed their relationship before breaking up in June 2021. Payne previously dated “Girls Aloud” singer Cheryl between 2016 and 2018. They share a son, Bear, who was born in March 2017.

Payne's fans were worried about the cryptic posts as one person tweeted Payne's stories and wrote, "Someone plena make sure liams okay I’m very worried like one of his friends please check on him." Another one said, "Damn no lie I hope he’s ok. Breaking up an engagement has to be really hard and it looks like he’s really going through it…I really hope his friends and family are checking in on him and making sure he’s ok."

While some users slammed him saying, "i’m crying first he starts dating this girl when she’s underaged and then he acts like this over her he’s so ugly." While some suggested, "They did but if you read his paragraph thing, he states - what I'm assuming- that he regrets breaking up w/ Maya," and "a) he regrets breaking up with Maya (that's what I understand from his post) and b) he might be drunk."

One person tweeted, "Idk it seems like a drunk message to his ex and he might just be blocked so this is his way to get the message to her." While showering love, one fan said, "Liam Payne, I hope you're okay!! you are so strong and incredible, please take care ok? we love you."

In June 2021, during one of Payne's virtual appearances on the Diary of a CEO podcast, the singer confirmed that he is single. Payne said he was “disappointed” with himself for “hurting people". “I feel like more than anything at this point, I’m more disappointed in myself that I keep on hurting people. That annoys me. I’ve just not been very good at relationships,” he said. “And I know what my pattern of things is with relationships, I feel at this point. I’m just not very good at them so I just need to work on myself before I put myself on to somebody else. And I feel like that’s where I got to in my last relationship,” he added.

Payne didn't mention the exact reason for his split from 20-year-old Henry but said that he felt he “wasn’t giving a very good version of (himself) anymore.” “I can honestly say that I feel better out of it. I didn’t feel good for doing what I did but it had to happen. I know that’s the corniest way of saying it was best for both of us… but it just feels like that,” the singer said.
