One Direction members and celebrities react to the ‘heartbreaking’ death of Liam Payne

How Kate Cassidy and Liam Payne met and made their relationship public

The influencer, who has more than 600,000 followers on Instagram, and ‘Strip That Down’ singer made their relationship public in 2022. Cassidy posted a photo of the pair making their red carpet debut at the British Fashion Awards in December that year. She called the night “amazing” in a caption as Payne looked her way with a lovestruck smile.

In a TikTok posted last month, Cassidy told followers the story of how she met the 1D singer. According to Cassidy, when she was 23 years old and working at Ritual Nightclub in Charleston, South Carolina, her manager texted her: “Liam Payne from One Direction is here, you’re going to take care of him tonight.”

Cassidy, who has family in London, said she told Payne she travels across the pond regularly, and he said he would like to be her “travel guide.” The next day they had lunch together and went bowling, followed by a ghost tour. Later in the video, Cassidy told her 850,000 TikTok followers that Payne had postponed his trip back to England by three days.

She added that “everything happens for a reason, don’t try to get off work because you want to go to a party because you never know, you might meet your future husband.”
