Liam Payne’s girlfriend Kate Cassidy has given fans a peek into her ‘simple’ life following her partner’s death.
The influencer, 25, has begun posting online again three months after Payne’s death in November 2024.
The internet personality was a frequent TikToker before her boyfriend’s death, but since his passing has only shared two videos on the platform.
One of the videos was a tribute to the late One Direction singer, with the caption ‘I love you.’ The other was posted just days ago and was a short video of her pet dog Nala.
In her sombre return to the platform, the influencer shared a video of her day in life showing her skincare routine, workout, dog walk, and watching TV.
The caption of the video read: ‘A simple day,’ and had a distinctly sombre tone in comparison to her typical content.
