The tragic death of Liam Payne has left his fans and loved ones in shock. As the industry mourns the news, Payne's girlfriend, Kate Cassidy, has spoken out about the tragic event on her social media platform.

Hours before Payne's death from falling off a hotel room balcony, the musician's social media stories featured Cassidy, who was enjoying the view and coffee with the 31-year-old.

Two days after the horrific passing away of the former One Direction band member, the influencer put up stories on her Instagram in which he described Liam as an "angel” and claimed always to love her late boyfriend. 

In the emotional note Cassidy shared alongside the pictures of Payne, the social media influencer stated, "I have been at a complete loss. Nothing about the past few days have felt real.” She continued to write, "I ask and pray that you'll give me the grace and space to navigate this in private." 

She concluded her message by penning, "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."

Cassidy and Payne had been together for two years. They were first spotted together in October 2022, after the late singer broke up with Cheryl Cole and Maya Henry. While the pair had kept their relationship from the spotlight, the influencer often posted stories and snippets of the former band member on her social media accounts.
