Maya Henry and Liam Payne drama, explained

Maya Henry has been known to live out many of the Directioners’ wildest Wattpad fantasies, but it turned out to be something of a nightmare for her. Back then, she was a one-dimensional stan like any other middle and high school girl with taste, but she came out a little tougher than the rest of us and got engaged to Liam Payne in 2020. They had a back-and-forth, messy relationship and breakup in 2022, but Maya still generously shares Liam gossip every now and then. She even wrote a ~fictional~ book about a girl who dates a British pop star (I’m assuming it was a non-disclosure agreement), and these days she’s busy watching the “Strip That Down” crooner to expose on TikTok. Personally, I am impatiently waiting for the Maya Call her dad Consequence. But until then, here’s a detailed breakdown of Maya Henry and Liam Payne’s drama based on my extensive research.

How did Maya Henry and Liam Payne meet?

In 2015, when Maya was a 15-year-old director, she met Liam at a meet-and-greet and apparently left quite an impression. After Liam split from Cheryl Cole (with whom he shares his son), he moved in with Maya in August 2018. The former couple made their romance public in September 2019 and got engaged in August 2020. Of course, Liam proposed to her with a $4 million ring.

Maya Henry revealed which One Direction member Liam Payne allegedly threw him against a wall

Unfortunately, I had to witness Liam’s unsettled appearance on Logan Paul’s podcast. Impulsiveback in June 2022. I’m sure you also remember him accusing an unknown 1D member of throwing him against a wall… what a time. Two years later, thank God Maya spills the tea. On October 6, the model dueted with someone who was curious about which of Liam’s bandmates allegedly threw him against the wall. “Okay, I see this all the time, everywhere,” Maya said in her TikTok. “I heard this unbearable story so many times and he told me it was Zayn.” Mystery solved!

This is a very believable answer considering Liam said in the same episode, “There are a lot of reasons why I don’t like Zayn.” Lol. To be fair, he also said: “There are a lot of reasons why I will always be on his side.” Liam explained: “If I had to go through what he went through, through his growth and whatever. My parents are so supportive of me that it’s annoying sometimes, and Zayn grew up differently in that way.” In the most condescending remark ever, he basically called Zayn an “idiot” but also reiterated that he “gets it.” and hopes that “one day the other person on the end of the line will want to get help.” Babe, I think the call might be coming from inside the house.

Did Liam Payne pressure Maya Henry into having an abortion?

A few months ago, in May 2024, Maya revealed this People that one of her ex-partners pressured her to have an abortion. “If it was up to me, I wouldn’t have done it,” she shared. “But if I had made any other decision, I would have lost the person I loved.”

Maya published one novel in particular, I’m looking forward towhich tells the complicated romance of a model and a British pop star. In the book, the main character, Mallory, finds out that she is pregnant but ultimately decides to have an abortion because her boyfriend threatens to leave her if she keeps the baby. She suffers complications from the procedure and has to go to the hospital. Maya claims her book is fiction but “inspired by true events.” Hmmm.

She noticed it People“What I went through in real life is very similar to what Mallory went through in the book. I definitely had some complications and had to go to the hospital alone.” Maya said the project was inspired by diaries she wrote during the Covid pandemic when she was with Liam.

Why did Maya Henry and Liam Payne break up?

Maya and Liam separated for the last time in May 2022. “Maya was surprised by the breakup,” a source said E! at the time. They added: “He ended things with her abruptly. She is very upset. They definitely had some ups and downs in their relationship.”

When they temporarily split in June 2021, Liam admitted A CEO’s diary Podcast that he’s “not very good at relationships.” No shit. He explained: “I just stopped giving a very good version of myself that I didn’t appreciate and that I didn’t like.”

Maya Henry’s latest allegations against Liam Payne

After posting her video about Liam and Zayn, Maya received a lot of comments saying that she wouldn’t stop talking about Liam. Please. As if any of you would. She created another TikTok explaining why she still talks about her ex and accused him of being the “obsessed one.” “Since we broke up, he’s been messaging me, destroying my phone… always from different phone numbers,” Maya said. “He will create new iCloud accounts to message me.” WTF?? She also said that Liam would sometimes send her emails and even contact her mother. “He’s the one who does weird things all the time,” Maya pointed out. “He says he takes advantage of One Direction fans because they always stay loyal to him and don’t betray him.” Yiiiikes.

Stay tuned for updates on this messy saga.
