A British Airways flight attendant has come under fire and been labelled "heartless" after they allegedly disclosed sensitive information regarding Liam Payne's body.

The crew member is reported to have been on duty during the flight that repatriated Liam's remains from Buenos Aires. The 31 year old tragically lost his life after falling from the balcony of his third-floor hotel room in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on October 16, suffering multiple traumas that led to an "internal and external haemorrhage".

Despite strict confidentiality policies of British Airways, it is claimed that the attendant breached protocol by revealing details about the passengers on the flight departing the Argentinian capital on November 6.

According to reports, the flight attendant informed their online followers: "Just been told we're carrying a coffin with us today," and added, "To then find out it's Liam Payne's body and his family are on our flight too, heart-breaking." A source has informed The Sun that the individual has been suspended from their role at the airline following the incident.
