Liam Payne is drawing flak for his behavior as some have come forward about him allegedly manipulating his fans.
The singer’s ex-girlfriend Maya Henry posted a video on TikTok recently responding to another user on the platform. She mentioned that ever since they broke up, he would message her not only from his personal phone number but also from other numbers so she has no idea where the messages are going to come from.

Aside from that, she also mentioned that he would email her, and blow up her mom’s phone as well as her friends’ phones.
“He praise on One Direction fans because they will always be loyal to him and won’t tell on him,” she added.
In response to Henry’s video, a TikTok user, who was a former fan, came forward with her experience with the singer. Filled with shock and disbelief, Payne had messaged her on Instagram. Much to her surprise things immediately took a turn as he started to ask her for explicit videos and photos to which she did send them back to him.

“This went on for two years and it was during times where he was in relationships, having babies. He was messaging me like two weeks after his baby was born, he messaged me to send explicit photos,” she added.
The TikTok user went on to explain and said, “He was harassing me for videos and photos and I was sending them and never leaked any but he didn’t because he didn’t want anyone to know and I’m pretty sure he has done this to other girls.”
She hopes that this reaches some people and that more people will speak up.
Upon seeing these videos online, netizens took to social media to air their disappointment with the situation.
he knows he has young fans and he deliberately preys on them because he knows they will excuse any disgusting behavior blindly. liam payne you suck so fucking bad

ppl are fr missing the point, talking about her age as if this isn’t a massive power play on his part? regardless of being over age of consent, he MANIPULATES people to get them to send, it’s not hard to understand? it’s always ‘believe the victim’ until ur fav is involved 🙄

what's even more insane is the fact that some people still actually likes him despite these girls coming out with their stories💀

"my fans will defend me no matter what" is unfortunately too real. there's always gonna be people calling victims a liar and defending the ab*ser no matter what they've done. https://t.co/flrspV07SN

Everyone that is defending Liam clearly has never been abused or manipulated by a narcissistic man or feel basic human empathy for others. https://t.co/PgakhvIuxY
