Styles, dressed in black, arrived in a BMW alongside TV star James Corden and the pair went straight inside the church. X Factor judge Simon Cowell was also in attendance, arriving with his fiancée, Lauren Silverman.

Girls Aloud singers Nicola Roberts and Kimberley Walsh were dropped off in front of the entrance wearing long black coats and sunglasses.

A horse-drawn carriage arrived carrying a dark blue coffin with silver handles, topped with white roses. On top of the carriage, there was a red floral tribute which said “son” and a blue tribute which said “daddy”, in reference to the son, Bear, that Payne shares with Cheryl.

The fans who had lined the streets to pay their respects to the star fell silent as Payne’s father Geoff and his mother Karen got out of a vehicle and stood next to the carriage.
