Liam Payne’s Girlfriend Kate Cassidy Reveals Angel Wings Tattoos on Fingers 2 Months After He Died

Liam Payne’s girlfriend Kate Cassidy appears to be honoring her late boyfriend with a subtle tribute.
Cassidy, 25, shared a photo of herself curling up to her and Payne’s dog, Nala, via her Instagram Stories on Sunday, December 22. In the pic, Cassidy is seen with angel wings tattooed on her index and middle fingers.
The influencer simply posted a red heart emoji over the image, in which Nala can be seen gazing at the camera.
Cassidy and Payne fostered Nala just one month before the One Direction singer died at age 31 after falling from a third-floor hotel room balcony in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on October 16.

“We have a little special guest with us today,” Cassidy said in a September 16 TikTok video introducing her and Payne’s new pet.
Cassidy said in the video that she was “so nervous” to ask Payne to get a dog with her. She said she found a dog shelter near their Miami home and shared that “Liam was totally on board.”

Cassidy and Payne settled on Nala after meeting three different dogs at the shelter, she said. “This dog … we figured was the best fit for us. She’s so sweet. She’s only four months old. She was abandoned by her previous owners and just dumped at the shelter,” Cassidy explained. “We wanted to give her a second chance at a better life.”
Cassidy recently returned to social media with a sweet tribute to Payne following his death.
On December 8, Cassidy shared a compilation video via TikTok of time spent with the late One Direction star. Captioning the post, “I love you,” the influencer began with footage of herself and Payne blowing kisses to the camera before sharing moments from various outings. The couple were also seen dancing together, arms wrapped around one another, in another touching moment.
Quiet moments were also spliced with a series of lighthearted memories, including footage of Payne, who traveled with Cassidy just two weeks before his death, dragging his amused girlfriend’s legs around a kitchen floor and bowling with her.

Editing together one and a half minutes’ worth of footage in total, Cassidy also included clips of Payne goofing around in front of the camera, lounging with her on the couch and sleeping beside her in bed.
The video was set to a 1993 track by Mazzy Star titled “Fade Into You.”
Cassidy, who was first linked to Payne in October 2022, attended Payne’s November 20 funeral in Amersham, England, along with Payne’s former One Direction bandmates, Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson and Zayn Malik. Cheryl Cole, Payne’s ex and the mother of his son Bear, 7, was also there, as were James Corden and Simon Cowell.
