Kate Cassidy breaks hearts with poignant note on Liam Payne’s death anniversary
Liam Payne’s girlfriend Kate Cassidy paid a heartbreaking tribute to the late singer on his first death anniversary.
The 26-year-old influencer, who had been dating the late One Direction alum for two years before his death, took to her Instagram account on Thursday to share a poignant note.
“Today marks a full year without you here,” Cassidy penned.
She expressed her grief for the loss, noting, “I will forever hate goodbyes.”
“I miss you Liam,” Cassidy added.
In the touching post, Cassidy also posted a throwback black-and-white of her and Payne laying on bed while the singer wrapped his arm around her neck from behind and planted a kiss on her cheek.
For the unversed, Payne passed away last year after falling from a third-floor balcony of the CasaSur Palermo Hotel in Buenos Aires. He was 31.
The late singer-songwriter is survived by his parents, sisters Nicola and Ruth, girlfriend Cassidy and his only son Bear, whom he shares with ex Cheryl Cole.
On October 12, Cassidy reflected on the last “goodbye” and the last time she saw him alive.
Remembering the day when she left for home in the US, leaving her boyfriend in Argentina where they spent two weeks of quality time before his fatal-fall.
“One year ago. today on October 12th was the last day that I spent with Liam,” she said in a video posted on her socials.”
The last day that I was with Liam in Argentina before I left, the car was in the driveway. I was sitting on the couch just expressing to him how much I’m gonna miss him, how much I love him. Honestly, it’s so weird to look back at because it was such a long heartfelt goodbye,” Cassidy continued.
Her voice broke, adding: “He looked at me and he said, ‘Kaitlin, you’re gonna miss your flight, you’re acting like this is the last time you’re ever gonna see me again.'”
She concluded the video with a message, saying, “Just remember you never know what tomorrow brings and tell your loved ones that you love them. Hold them a little bit extra closer today. Bye guys.”

Dubai clinician accuses Katie Price, Lee Andrews of leaving without paying
Katie Price’s self-proclaimed multi-millionaire husband, Lee Andrews, has been accused of not paying surgery bills after the couple visited a Dubai clinic.
The controversial businessman,43, has been named by a UAE-based aesthetic clinician for allegedly failing to pay for the cosmetic work they underwent in recent months.
The claim from the aesthetician came after The Sun reported allegations that Lee used fake money to scam women.
Following the report, the clinician shared his own experience with the couple.
He said: “This is expected as they both left without paying for their treatment and after multiple sent invoices, I was blocked.
“Although no mention of being unhappy with the results was ever brou- ght to my attention.
“What Katie is experiencing with her treatment is perfectly normal.”But Lee has denied these claims when the The Sun reached out to him.
He has insisted that Katie was left “unable to move her mouth” following the procedure and disputes the charges.
It comes after Lee made bizarre claims that he wants to buy a majority stake in Chelsea Football Club this year for £2bn.

Jon B flexes working with Michael Jackson
Jon B has opened up about one of the most memorable moments of his career, creating an official remix for Michael Jackson’s You Are Not Alone, as he celebrates 30 years since his debut album.
Speaking to PEOPLE ahead of his Still Got Love Spring/Summer Tour, the Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter and producer, 51, was clear about the significance of the collaboration.
“I remixed the song You Are Not Alone for Michael Jackson. And it was an official remix. It wasn’t like I just did it on the side. They asked me to do it and I was honored.”
He added that at the start of his career, he was also managed by the same company as Jackson, deepening the connection between the two artists.
Though he has yet to see the new Michael biopic starring Jaafar Jackson, Jon B has warm memories of working alongside the King of Pop in person.
“It’s an incredible honor,” he said, emphasising that the collaboration happened “in the same room, really collaborating, not over the phone or via text message or something like that.”
He placed those sessions in the context of a broader career defined by in-person creative partnerships with legends.
“That’s really my name of the game as far as using the opportunity that I have as an artist to live out my dreams. The first thing for me was, all right, I’m gonna work with all my favorite people.”
That list included Tupac Shakur and many others.
Jon B’s debut album Bonafide was released in 1995, producing the breakthrough single Someone to Love featuring Babyface, which first appeared on the Bad Boys soundtrack.
“To [be featured] on my record, my very first song that I ever put out was a tremendous honor for me,” he said of working with Babyface, whom he described as “the pinnacle of all artists for me to want to work with.”
His 1997 follow-up single They Don’t Know from the album Cool Relax remains a live highlight three decades on.
“It’s still being sung in the club. Everybody’s singing it word for word, and you’re just thinking, ‘Man, that started out as me shedding my feelings.’ As a songwriter, that’s very fulfilling.”
He calls it the song he is most proud of.
Jon B’s latest album Waiting on You was released in March 2025 and features Tank, Rick Ross, Donell Jones and Alex Isley. His next tour stop is 10 May in Palm Springs.

Renée Zellweger joins cast of ‘A Woman in the Sun’
Renée Zellweger is set to lead the cast of the upcoming feature film A Woman in the Sun, joining forces with fellow Academy Award winner Sissy Spacek and rising star Mia Threapleton.
The project will see Zellweger take on the role of Claire Keating, a bartender on Nantucket whose life is upended when her mother falls ill and her daughter moves back home.
Written and directed by Julia Cox, the film explores the struggles of the island’s shrinking middle class as Claire is forced to confront her past and take charge of her future.
The film marks a significant directorial debut for Cox, who previously earned acclaim for writing the Oscar-nominated Nyad.
Zellweger, who is also producing the project through her Big Picture Co. banner, described the script as a “storytelling treasure” and expressed her excitement about championing Cox as an emerging filmmaker.
Production is scheduled to begin this September, with the project set to be introduced to international buyers during the Cannes Film Festival.
The cast brings together an impressive amount of industry talent. Zellweger, a two-time Oscar winner, recently returned to her iconic role in the latest Bridget Jones film, Mad About the Boy.
She is joined by Spacek, a six-time nominee and winner for Coal Miner’s Daughter, and Threapleton, who has been making waves in projects for directors like Wes Anderson and Damien Chazelle.
