The 25-year-old influencer kept things casual, donning an oversized graphic T-shirt, gray sweatpants, and slides, with her hair loosely cascading down her face. Her friends matched her laid-back vibe, similarly dressed in oversized tees and sweats.

The trio had a furry companion by their side—a dog many believe to be Nala, the beloved pup that Payne and Cassidy rescued together. Following the outing, fans were quick to express concern for Cassidy's emotional state.

Compassionate messages poured in online as people shared their heartbreak for her. "My heart is breaking for her…she looks so exhausted," one user commented. Another noted"She is devestated[sic] and heartbroken at the same time. I can't even imagine what she is feeling."

Others took solace in seeing her with Nala, a small reminder of her bond with Payne. "God bless her. She’s in pain. I'm glad to see Nala with her. I hope Kate will be okay," another fan wrote. Sentiments echoed across social media, with some commenting that Cassidy looked "empty" and like she had "been crying for days."

Others even urged that paparazzi "should let people mourn in peace." One user expressed their sorrow, writing"So sad to lose someone you love." This individual revealed their own experience with loss, adding"prayers to her and the family."

One observer commented"She looks sad; the guilt she must be feeling right now, wouldn't have left him alone and even more so in those distressing circumstances!" Another added, "She looks miserable. Prayers for her and the guilt she must be feeling."

Cassidy's sighting comes just a few days after the former One Direction member died in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on October 16. Payne, who was only 31 at the time, fell from the balcony of his third-story room at CasaSur Palermo Hotel, where he had been staying.

Although his death was initially surrounded by mystery, it was later reported that he was under the influence of potent drugs. Taking to social media on Friday, Cassidy reportedly paid tribute to Payne, with whom she lived in Florida.

In her Instagram Story, she expressed her gratitude for the kind words and love she had received, stating that she felt completely lost. Cassidy remarked that nothing about the past few days felt real and requested grace and space to navigate her grief privately.

Payne and Cassidy arrived in Argentina on September 30, 2024, ready to enjoy what appeared to be a relaxing vacation. The couple posted photos and videos on social media, showing them soaking in the sights and sounds of Buenos Aires.

From scenic outings to intimate moments, their followers were treated to a glimpse of their time together, with Payne seemingly in high spirits. However, Cassidy left Argentina on October 14, flying back to Florida.

While Cassidy's reasons for leaving seemed personal, Payne's decision to stay behind soon led to troubling events that would culminate in his tragic death.

On the day of Payne's demise, troubling reports of his behavior began to surface. Before his death, hotel staff and guests at the CasaSur Palermo Hotel in Buenos Aires witnessed the singer acting erratically.

According to multiple sources, Payne was seen in the hotel lobby earlier, displaying aggressive and unsettling behavior. One witness recalled a shocking moment when Payne smashed his laptop in front of startled onlookers. His behavior became so disruptive that the hotel staff had to physically carry him back to his room.

Hours before the fatal fall, someone at the hotel made a 911 call reporting an "aggressive" male, though Payne's identity wasn't mentioned at the time. The caller's report matched accounts from those who had seen Payne in the lobby earlier, concerned by his behavior.

The events took a tragic turn just after 5 p.m. local time when Payne fell from his third-floor hotel room balcony. Emergency services arrived quickly, but despite their best efforts, Payne was pronounced dead on the spot.

He had succumbed to the severity of his injuries, which included a cranial fracture. Alberto Crescenti, head of Argentina's emergency medical system, confirmed that Payne's injuries were "incompatible with life," making resuscitation impossible.

Officials urged the public not to jump to conclusions and to wait for the results of the autopsy and toxicology report. It remains unclear whether Liam Payne's fall was accidental or intentional.
