Kate Cassidy’s world was shattered 11 months ago when her boyfriend Liam Payne tragically fell to his d3ath. The former One Direction singer passed away at 31 following the fatal fall at a hotel in Argentina.
Liam’s heartbreaking d3ath occurred just days after Kate had left to return to America. She often shares her grief and pain candidly across social media, and the 26-year-old turned to Instagram on Tuesday to make an appeal to her followers.
It marks nearly a year after losing Liam, as she took to her Instagram stories to reveal her precious keepsake items. Inside were notes from Liam, photos of the couple and small knitted bears alongside various sketches, reports the Mirror.
The footage shows Kate placing her treasured mementos from their relationship into a floral-patterned container, alongside text stating: “She probably just threw it away.”
She wrote alongside the post: “Don’t forget to write your loved ones a letter today, tomorrow is not guaranteed”. Her fans were quick to rush to the comments.

One follower commented: “This made me cry. He was so special. Liam’s love will always surround you in so many beautiful ways. He is always with you, Kate.”
This came after an earlier upload where she posted several joyful recollections from recent months. The footage captured her Disney trip, ocean swimming and seaside dining.
She wrote beneath the clips: “11 months ago couldn’t even tell you what my morning to night looked like. I was in such a dark place.
“I now choose to see the light in life and realise how fragile and precious life is, and therefore I will live everyday to my fullest, for us both.”
Her and Liam’s supporters rallied round once again with heartfelt messages. One follower commented: “The sun will always come out. He would want you to live your life to the fullest- happy to see your light slowly come back.”
In a recent update last month, Kate openly admitted she continues to wear Liam’s clothing to bed. She posted on Instagram in an effort to support others navigating loss.
Kate disclosed that followers often have questions about Liam’s passing on social media, as she’s asked how she manages to cope with the void he has left behind.
Responding to fans, she turned to the platform to address the common concerns. She described grief as feeling like “a world that you wake up in and it doesn’t make any sense anymore, especially when you lose somebody so suddenly and unexpectedly you almost have such a hard time forgiving the world for ripping that person away from you.”
She revealed that sometimes she experiences feeling “numb,” in the aftermath of Liam’s passing, whilst at other moments she becomes overwhelmed with emotion.
Kate also confessed she believes her personal sorrow will endure for a “lifetime”. “Grief does not come with an expiration date,” she continued. “It’s not something you learn to get over, it’s something you learn to carry with”.
