Liam Payne has reportedly been on a "downward spira"’ after struggling to cope with life after One Direction, according to a concerned pal. The 30 year old singer was said to have been rushed to hospital with severe kidney pain earlier this week after becoming unwell on a trip to Lake Como in Italy with girlfriend Kate Cassidy to celebrate their one year anniversary. And just last month Liam was forced to pull out of his upcoming tour of South America due to a “serious kidney infection” which also left him needing medical treatment.
