Fans now fear for Liam Payne’s girlfriend Kate Cassidy after the 31-year-old’s death last week 😭 Images have emerged after her first outing, and they’re heartbreaking to see

“I have been at a complete loss. Nothing about the past few days have felt real,” she wrote. “I ask and pray that you’ll give me the grace and space to navigate this in private.”

Cassidy adds, “Liam, my angel. You are everything. I want you to know I loved you unconditionally and completely. I will continue to love you for the rest of my life. I love you Liam.”

On October 20, Cassidy was seen for the first time since Payne died, picking up pet supplies with two friends at her side.

The woman, who is frequently seen in full glam, was wearing gray baggy sweatpants, an oversized t-shirt and had no makeup covering her naturally beautiful face. She was seen walking Nala, who according to the Daily Mail is the foster dog rescued by the couple weeks before Payne died.

Yet it wasn’t the dog or her casual attire that captured the attention of fans. It was the pain openly expressed on her face.

Online users were generous with their love, empathizing with Cassidy and offering their support to the woman they say looks “gutted.”

“My heart is breaking for her…she looks so exhausted,” one user writes. A second comments, “She is devastated and heartbroken at the same time. I can’t even imagine what she is feeling.”

A third shares, “I can’t even imagine how broken she is. So much happened in such a short time.”

Other netizens urge Cassidy to let go of any blame she feels for leaving Payne alone in Argentina: “She looks sad; the guilt she must be feeling right now, wouldn’t have left him alone and even more so in those distressing circumstances!” A second user shares, “She looks miserable. Prayers for her and the guilt she must be feeling.”
