Liam Payne’s girlfriend, Kate Cassidy, has resurfaced following the singer’s tragic death.
The 25-year-old influencer was spotted in Florida with two of her closest friends as they grabbed pet food.
In the pics taken Sunday, Cassidy looked ultra-casual in an oversized graphic T-shirt, gray sweatpants and slides. She wore her hair loosely around her face and sported a bare face.
Her friends also matched her outfit in similarly oversized tees and sweatpants. They also had a dog with them.
Her sighting comes just a few days after the former One Direction member died in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on Oct. 16.
Payne, who was only 31 at the time, fell from the balcony of his third-story room in CasaSur Palermo Hotel, where he had been staying as a guest.
Although his death was surrounded by mystery at the time, it was later reported that he was under the influence of potent drugs that cause hallucinations and psychotic attacks.
Payne’s cause of death was determined to be from multiple traumas that led to internal and external bleeding as a result of his fall, per the National Criminal and Correctional Prosecutor’s Office autopsy.
Taking to social media on Friday, Cassidy paid tribute to her partner of two years, with whom she lived in Florida.
“Thank you for all of the kind words and love that has been sent my way. I have been at a complete loss,” she posted on her Instagram Story. “Nothing about the past few days have felt real. 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. I love you Liam,” she emotionally wrote.
Cassidy ended the heartfelt message with the number 444, an angel number believed to represent love and support.
Payne and Cassidy had traveled to Argentina at the beginning of October to attend fellow One Director bandmate Niall Horan’s concert. Despite originally intending to stay a week, the couple stayed for two.
Cassidy, who was already in Florida by Oct. 14, revealed in a TikTok video she was ready to go home, while Payne chose to stay behind.
The social media star’s decision apparently upset the singer after he had “begged” her to stay with him, Cassidy’s friend told The Post.
“He was really unhappy about that,” the pal claimed. “He made sure she knew that.”
The friend shared that the two got into a “heated” exchange over Cassidy wanting to fly back and she ultimately “took things into her own hands and got herself a ticket” home.
The pal said Cassidy had grown frustrated as Payne had given her “no indication of when he’d be ready to leave.”
Shortly after she left, two 25-year-old sex workers admitted to hanging out with Payne hours before his death, per local Argentine news outlet La Nación.
The women, whose identities were not disclosed, spoke with lead prosecutor Marcelo Roma and revealed they were invited to the CasaSur Palermo Hotel after being called via an escort service.
They reportedly spent a few hours drinking with the pop star but did not do drugs with Payne. They reportedly said he seemed “normal” to them.
According to the National Criminal and Correctional Prosecutor’s Office, the two women “had already left the hotel” by the time the “Teardrops” singer fell to his death.
Investigators also shared in a report obtained by Page Six that they interviewed the two women, along with three hotel staffers, and concluded that Payne was alone when he died.
This news left Cassidy “devastated,” her friend told The Post.
“She just has heard about the prostitutes,” the friend said. “She knew nothing about that. She just said she has to wrap her mind around it.”
The insider added that the claims are “obviously a huge betrayal” for the influencer and it “hurts a lot.”
“She hasn’t stopped crying,” the pal further shared. “She’s devastated. She’s got a good support system around her, but this just went from bad to worse. She’s not OK.”
However, the friend made sure to let fans know Cassidy is not “alone” as she deals with this situation.
She told The Post that Cassidy “has a few people around her, including family members. She’s not alone. She’s responsive to me and our other friends. We’ll all help her however we can.”
