In the sad days prior to Liam Payne's untimely passing, his partner, Kate Cassidy, uploaded one of the last images of the ex-One Direction member.

Sharing the heartwarming image on TikTok, it showed a serene moment with the couple horseback riding, with Payne donning casual attire while mounted on a horse. Accompanying this snapshot was the poignant caption: "I am very grateful for the simple things in life."

The devastating news of Payne's death rippled through the globe after TMZ reported his fatal fall from the third story of an upmarket Argentinian hotel on Wednesday afternoon. The dreadful event took place at Hotel CasaSur located in Buenos Aires' Palermo area, with local reports surfacing shortly after.

Merely hours before his death, Payne was actively engaging with his followers online, showcasing snapshots of his meals and expressing enthusiasm for the polo match he was to attend. In a selection of clips, the 30 year old singer captured footage of his girlfriend Kate as they relished a leisurely breakfast, offering followers a sneak peek into their time at a pal's residence.

Liam is heard narrating during one of these video clips, saying, "This is the breakfast table, just enjoying breakfast and coffee even though it's 1pm," while Kate playfully contributes from off camera, branding them "losers" for their delayed start, reports the Express.

Liam and Kate had been in a relationship since October 2022, dazzling the public with their first joint red carpet appearance a couple of months after. Their bond appeared to be flourishing, as evidenced when Kate accompanied Liam to the premiere of "All of Those Voices," a documentary by Louis Tomlinson, Liam's ex-One Direction bandmate.

Following the event, Kate took to social media to share her awe, remarking, "What a crazy eye-opening experience! " and sending out praises to Louis with, "@Louist91 well done on such a beautiful film that everybody will love."

Post his broken engagement with model Maya Henry, which saw its ultimate end in May 2022 following an on-off romance, Liam seemed to have rediscovered joy with Kate until unforeseen calamity hit while in Argentina.

TMZ reports paint a picture of a distressed Liam on the day of the incident; he purportedly destroyed his laptop in a fit of rage. Hotel employees had to step in and escort him to his room.

Upon police arrival at the scene, it was discovered that Liam had sadly died.

Kate departed from Argentina just three days prior to her boyfriend's unexpected death as more unsettling revelations come to light concerning his untimely demise.

Insiders tell TMZ that Payne and his partner, Kate Cassidy, touched down in Argentina on September 30, with their holiday moments captured across social media posts. Contrarily, Cassidy is said to have cut her stay short, leaving Argentina on October 14, and Payne continued solo, checking into the CasaSur Palermo Hotel by himself.

Kate posted a video of her journey back to the States on Snapchat, showcasing her outfits and meals during the lengthy flight home.
