Kate Cassidy has revealed how she learned of Liam Payne’s passing.
In the weeks leading up to Liam’s passing, the former couple had been taking vacations in Argentina. Kate, however, chose to renounce their rental home in Florida and leave South America. However, on October 16, Liam, 31, died from a fall from the balcony of his third-floor hotel room two days after she left. He died after enduring numerous traumas that resulted in “internal and external hemorrhage.”
Kate was unintentionally sat scrolling through TikTok when she had a bad feeling in her gut, amidst the heartbreaking news that many of Liam’s friends and fans had discovered online. Her phone rang, with one of Liam’s pals ringing to share the news. In a new interview, her first since Liam’s death, she revealed how she feels “blessed” that she was called and didn’t find out online.
“I feel blessed I didn’t find out over social media because I just couldn’t even imagine that”, she said. She continued, “I was scrolling TikTok with our dog, and one of Liam’s friends called me.” Speaking to The Sun, Kate continued: “That moment, it’s like blank, it’s blacked out in my head.
” I didn’t believe it at first. I thought it was just a rumour. Or something created solely to generate views. Then my gut just started to feel bad. I was like, ‘ Why would somebody make this up? Is this true? ‘ Kate revealed that when the news arrived, she “blacked out” and was immediately numb.
In an instant, she tried to call her boyfriend in disbelief before phoning her nearest friends and family, as well as Liam’s devastated parents, including dad Geoff, who flew to Argentina on the next flight. The mother of Kate also flew with her daughter to Florida on the first flight.
Their dog, Nala, fought with the social media influencer throughout the night but was unaware of the destruction Kate was enduring. “I didn’t sleep”, she says. Kate acknowledged she “definitely” wanted the two of them to marry and have children, and they had discussed their future plans as their relationship grew more serious. She also admitted she wanted them to. She claims that Liam’s relationship with him is similar to a fairy tale and that his hectic life should be considered “normal.”
Liam and Kate met in a scenario straight out of a rom-com, when the then-ordinary waitress served the megastar at a bar in Charleston, South Carolina, in 2022. For Liam, the attraction was immediate, and he asked for her number straight away. However, their relationship almost didn’t take off. Due to having an American number, Kate gave Liam her phone number, but she forgot to add + 1 to her area code.
