A British Airways stewardess is at risk of losing her job after posting online she was on the same flight that was taking Liam Payne‘s body home.

Summer-Leigh Morrison took to Instagram to let her followers know she was on the flight travelling with the late One Direction star’s coffin.

She is believed to have breached breached strict guidelines by sharing a picture of the British Airways flight manifest that detailed who was on the flight.

Posting on Instagram, she wrote: ‘Just been told we’re carrying a coffin with us today.

‘To then find out it’s Liam Payne’s body and his family are on our flight too, heart-breaking.’

It is understood that the air stewardess has been suspended as British Airway bosses investigates.

Payne died aged 31 on October 16 after falling from the third-floor balcony of a hotel in the Argentine capital Buenos Aires. His funeral was held in Amersham, Buckinghamshire, on Wednesday.

A British Airways source told The Sun: ‘This stewardess cares more for her online social media following than her job.

‘She has been brought to the attention of bosses due to previous posts.

‘It is a serious data breach, not to mention a callous and heartless move to tell the world of Liam’s final journey for the good of her online following.

‘She will be lucky to ever fly again with the airline.’

A spokesperson for British Airways confirmed to the MailOnline that they are investigating the matter and that it would be ‘inappropriate to comment further.’
