Kate Cassidy says her relationship has ended after she kept comparing her new boyfriend to Liam Payne, which she describes as something she could not stop doing. Multiple outlets report that Cassidy acknowledges she made a mistake and links the breakup to her ongoing comparisons to the late One Direction singer.
The reports describe Cassidy as moving on with her life after the end of her relationship, and they say she characterizes the situation as her “f***ed up,” with the breakup described as her being dumped by her new partner. Metro adds context that Cassidy had previously dated Liam Payne for more than two years, before his death in October 2024 in Buenos Aires.
One outlet also includes additional financial detail, saying Liam Payne’s son is set to inherit his reported £21 million fortune, though the other reports focus mainly on Cassidy’s account of why the later relationship ended. Across the sources, the common point is Cassidy’s statement that comparisons to Liam Payne played a role in her breakup.
