The singer is originally from Wolverhampton with his family still living there, Many people believe that is where his funeral will be and many fans recently held a memorial in the city following his death.

However, there is now speculation Liam Payne's funeral could be in central London.  The singer spent a lot of time in the city during his X-Factor days. The One Direction members stayed at a house in North London whilst they were competing on the show. 

Liam Payne also had ties with Buckinghamshire which is classed as the Greater London area so the funeral could be held near where he used to live.
