J.J. Is correct. Liam has Hazel Eyes. If you look at high quality pictures he has a distinct ring of olive green in his iris. It’s a muddier shade of green that you would see clearly in sunlight.
What happened to his hair?
all Moroccans I know don’t look like that, perhaps your mate had one European parent
Andrew, there are “European looking” North Africans. Berbers for instance.
he doesn’t look Moroccan in the slightest.
Bad picture.
