In a heartbreaking turn of events, late singer Liam Payne reportedly wished for his girlfriend, Kate Cassidy, to remain with him in Argentina rather than return to the United States alone shortly before his untimely passing.
Sources close to the couple reveal that while Liam was eager for Kate to extend her stay, she was set to head back to the U.S. for personal commitments. The couple had arrived in Buenos Aires in early October for a much-needed holiday, and while the trip started joyfully, it concluded with Kate’s early return, leaving the “Teardrops” singer behind in Argentina.
Cassidy now reportedly carries a heavy burden of remorse over her decision to leave. An insider shared that she has been grappling with overwhelming grief and shock since hearing the news. “This past week has been a nightmare for her. She’s still in disbelief and struggling with immense guilt over leaving him alone in Argentina,” the source revealed. The source also noted that Kate and Liam’s relationship had been strong and filled with love despite occasional ups and downs.
Another close contact added, “Although they faced rocky periods in the past, their relationship was in a really good place during this recent trip. Liam genuinely wanted Kate to stay, but she felt the need to return home.” The couple was deeply bonded, with Kate standing by Liam through his struggles over the past two years, offering unwavering support. Their connection had grown so meaningful that, as she shared in her touching tribute to Liam, the two were making plans to marry within the year.
Despite occasional challenges, their romance was steadfast, and the couple often appeared inseparable. Friends close to them described Liam as a caring partner who cherished his time with Kate. Her departure, though planned, was an emotional moment for both, making the loss even harder for her to bear.
Kate’s poignant tribute has since touched the hearts of fans worldwide, as she expressed the deep love and dreams she and Liam held for their future together. In remembering Liam, she shared memories of joy, companionship, and mutual support, all of which made her final departure from Argentina a particularly sorrowful choice.
Liam’s untimely death has left Kate and those close to him devastated, grappling with both grief and the haunting memories of a relationship full of love, resilience, and plans that were tragically cut short.
