**Kate Cassidy Shares AI Images Remembering Late Liam Payne**
Weeks after what would have been his 32nd birthday, Kate Cassidy, former girlfriend of the late One Direction star Liam Payne, has shared AI-generated images of herself with the singer. Payne tragically passed away last October after falling from a balcony in a Buenos Aires hotel. He was 31.
Cassidy posted the AI-created images on her Instagram Stories, thanking the fan who designed them. The images depict the couple embracing, with Cassidy in a pink dress and Payne in a salmon blazer. “Thanks for making these,” she wrote. “AI is such a blessing and a curse.”
This comes shortly after Cassidy honored Payne’s birthday on August 29th with social media posts featuring photos and videos of their two-year relationship. She expressed how much she would have wished to celebrate together.
Payne’s death was ruled as a result of multiple traumas sustained from a fall from the second floor of a hotel balcony. Authorities later launched an investigation that led to charges for five people, including hotel employees, for supplying him with drugs at the time of his death.
Following Payne’s passing, Cassidy shared a note written by Payne weeks before his death, expressing his hope to marry her within a year. Payne also recently appeared posthumously in the TV series “Building the Band.”
