Kate Cassidy Tells Liam Payne ‘I Love You’ in First TikTok Since His Death

By mzaxazm



Liam Payne‘s girlfriend Kate Cassidy shared a heartfelt tribute to the late One Direction star in one of her first social media posts since his death.

In a TikTok video posted on Sunday, Dec. 8, the influencer, 25, shared a compilation of videos of herself and Payne spending time together, set to Mazzy Star’s 1993 song “Fade Into You.”

Many of the short, second-long clips show Cassidy and Payne goofing around at home. Videos capture the couple dancing around a living room as laser lights lit the ceiling, Payne playfully dragging Cassidy around by her feet, the “Strip That Down” singer bowling and the couple petting a dog.

Other clips show the pair posing together at Disneyland, eating pizza in a kitchen, watching a soccer game, sledding on a snowy hill, kissing and sitting at a restaurant.

A few final videos show Payne drawing Cassidy on a pad of paper, the musician lying in a tiny baby chair — presumably belonging to his son Bear, 7 — before the post ends with a clip of the couple kissing and hugging as a camera light flashed near them.

“I love you,” Cassidy captioned the post.

Payne and Cassidy dated for two years before his death at age 31 on Oct. 16. The pop music star died after falling from a third-floor hotel balcony in Buenos Aires, and authorities have said that in the moments before his death and in the period of at least his last 72 hours, the singer had traces of “polydrug use of alcohol, cocaine and a prescription antidepressant in his body.”

Two days after Payne’s death, Cassidy spoke out for the first time via a post on her Instagram Stories, thanking her followers for “all of the kind words and love that has been sent my way.”

“I have been at a complete loss. Nothing about the past few days have felt real,” she wrote at the time. “I ask and pray that you’ll give me the grace and space to navigate this in private.”

“Liam, my angel. You are everything. I want you to know I loved you unconditionally and completely. I will continue to love you for the rest of my life,” she finished. “I love you Liam.”

The suspects were charged with abandonment of a person followed by death, as well as supply and facilitation of narcotics, Argentina’s National Criminal and Correctional Prosecutor’s Office said in a Nov. 7 press release. The suspects have not been named by authorities.
