Kate Cassidy, the girlfriend of the late Liam Payne, has been seen publicly for the first time since the former One Direction singer’s funeral. Liam’s private funeral took place on November 20 in Buckinghamshire, following his tragic death on October 16 at the age of 31. He passed away after a fall from a hotel balcony in Argentina.
In photos obtained by media outlets, Kate was spotted in central London appearing emotional, wiping away tears while stopping at a coffee shop. She had been in a two-year relationship with Liam, and the couple had been vacationing in Argentina days before his passing. Kate reportedly flew back to the United States 48 hours prior to the incident.
Amid her grief, rumors have surfaced about the authenticity of their relationship, with an Argentine hotel worker claiming to have seen evidence suggesting it was “fake.” However, details surrounding this claim remain unclear.
Kate has been supported by close friend Damian Hurley, who also attended the funeral. While it is uncertain if she will remain in the UK, the home she shared with Liam has been listed for rent, indicating potential changes in her future plans.
