A childhood friend of Liam Payne has revealed their last conversation - where he told the star to 'not let fame get into his head’.
John Carpenter, 31, first met the One Direction hitmaker on the first day of year 7 at St Peter’s Collegiate in Wolverhampton.
He explained how Liam was his first friend at secondary school - and how sports united them throughout the years.
They both went to compete in cross country together.
Teacher John said: “He was so passionate about running - he was an athlete before he was a singer.
