Liam Payne’s heartbroken girlfriend cut a forlorn figure as she was seen in public for the first time since the superstar singer was laid to rest.

Grief-stricken Kate Cassidy, 25, was spotted on a solo trip in central London. 

The American model braved the winter cold in a long white fluffy coat and a pair of dark jogging trousers as she strolled down the street before popping into a cafe. 

Clutching onto a mobile phone and small purse, she appeared without make-up and had her hair tied back as she walked anonymously through the busy streets.

It comes just days after Kate joined the former One Direction star’s family and friends as they paid a tearful farewell to the star last week.

Liam, 31, was laid to rest after his casket was driven to the 12th Century St Mary’s Church in Amersham, Bucks, in a white horse drawn hearse.

His One Direction bandmates Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Niall Horan and Louis Tomlinson were among mourners.

They were united in grief as they appeared in public together for the first time since the band split in 2015.

Former Girls Aloud star Cheryl, mum to Liam’s seven-year-old son Bear, was also in attendance.

  One of the floral displays showed bowling pins and a ball - a nod to his love of bowling, which Ms Cassidy said he did four times a week. 

Liam died on October 16 from head injuries he suffered after falling from the balcony of his third-floor hotel suite in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Liam and Kate had been in the country to attend former bandmate Horan’s sell out concert in the city.

Kate flew back to the couple’s home in Miami on October 14 while Liam remained behind to renew his US visa.

Following his death, she wrote an emotional tribute on Instagram saying: 'Thank you for all of the kind words and love that has been sent my way.

After Liam's death, she took to social media and said: 'Thank you for all of the kind words and love that has been sent my way' 

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

'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.'

She told how the couple had been looking forward to getting married but added: ‘Liam, I know we’ll be together forever, but not in the way we had planned’.

Kate and Liam first started dating in October 2022, and made their red carpet debut at the Fashion Awards later that year.

The pair then put an end to split rumours by enjoying a date in London in June last year, and later that year she supported him when he was rushed to hospital with a 'serious kidney infection'.
