Sad News: Liam Payne mother die in a Car Cr….
Liam Payne’s girlfriend has said she would “never have left Argentina”, if she had known the singer’s death would happen.
US influencer Kate Cassidy – who had been in a relationship with the One Direction star since 2022 – told the Sun in an exclusive interview that Payne’s death was a “tragic accident”.
“No, I never did think [he might die young]… I just never thought this would have happened,” she added, in her first interview since he died.
Payne died in October last year, after falling from the balcony of his hotel room in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He was 31.
A week after his death, Cassidy posted a tribute to the singer online, describing him as “my best friend, the love of my life”.
She also posted a photo of a note written by Payne shortly before he died, suggesting the couple would marry within a year.
The 25-year-old told the Sun: “Love is so optimistic, and you just hope that everything will work out at the end.
“Obviously if I knew, if I could see into the future, I would never have left Argentina”.
She added that she never thought her travelling separately from him “would turn out the way it did”.
Payne had been in Argentina on holiday to see his former bandmate Niall Horan in concert.
Cassidy said that she had left Argentina and returned to their Florida home alone to take care of their dog, Nala.
“I had a responsibility, we had a responsibility. We had our dog and obviously I never, ever thought this event would occur,” she explained.
She added that “Liam was in such a good headspace when I left”.
