Liam Payne's Girlfriend Revealed Why She Left The Singer In Argentina Days Before His Death

Just days before Liam Payne's passing, his girlfriend Kate Cassidy abruptly departed Buenos Aires, where the couple had been spending time together.

It turns out that they were supposed to spend only five days in the Argentinian capital but exceeded the proposed duration as they ended up spending two weeks.

Liam Payne died yesterday after falling from the third floor of the CasaSur Palermo hotel in Buenos Aires.

The "Strip That Down" singer's girlfriend, Cassidy, made a hasty exit from Argentina before his fatal fall from the balcony of his hotel.

Payne and Cassidy reportedly arrived in Argentina earlier this month for his former One Direction bandmate Niall Horan's concert. They were supposed to stay for just five days but ended up spending two weeks.

She seemingly got homesick and decided to leave on October 14, two days before her boyfriend died.

"I was so ready to leave," Cassidy shared in a TikTok video. "Honestly, love South America but I hate staying in one place for too long. And we were supposed to be there for, like, five days, turned into two weeks."

She noted that she was so bent on going home because she "was just like, 'I need to go home,'" especially as she developed a "weird rash" before her flight due to her "anxiety."

"I was so happy to be home," she added on the clip. "It was so relieving."

On her Instagram page, Cassidy has been facing a barrage of questions from fans about Payne's fall.

One person wrote, "Why would you [leave] him alone… doesn't make sense," while another said, "Why didn't you help him stay/get sober though!!?"

However, several others slammed the insensitive remarks, noting that Cassidy needs support as she grieves the loss of her boyfriend.

A fan noted, "These comments are brutal you guys can do better than this. Just stop. She just lost her partner."

Another person said, "[These] comments aren't it. Let the woman grieve the loss of her boyfriend instead of you all hounding her with stupid comments."

It comes as Payne passed away yesterday after falling from the balcony of his hotel room. Reports say he suffered extreme damage to his body, including a fractured skull, after landing on a patio close to the hotel's swimming pool and had already died when paramedics got to the scene.

According to the Daily Mail, the head of Buenos Aires emergency services, Alberto Crescenti, disclosed that Payne had a "cranial fracture and extremely serious injuries that led to his immediate death."

He also told TN television that Payne was dead when paramedics arrived at 5 pm local time, adding, "Our role was to head there quickly, give medical attention, and try to resuscitate him, but his injuries were incompatible with life."

The singer's identity was reportedly confirmed via his passport, but cops are yet to arrive at a conclusive reason for his fall. His body has since been transported to a local morgue, where a post-mortem examination will be conducted.

Before his fall in Argentina, the singer was allegedly under the influence as the hotel receptionist told emergency service that he was "off his head on drugs," per the Daily Mail.

Payne was reportedly acting erratic before he was escorted back to his room.

The hotel staff made two calls to 911 emergency service, seeking "urgent" help for him.

In the first call, the staff who later identified himself as Esteban, said, "We have a guest who's off his head on drugs and is destroying everything in his room. We need someone to come."

He then called back after the call went off, saying, "'I don't know if the guest's life is in danger. The room has a balcony, and we are afraid he might do something," after which he told the emergency officer to "just send an ambulance, only an ambulance."

Local media reports that Payne was "acting erratically in the hotel lobby and smashed his laptop" before he "had to be carried back to his room."

Meanwhile, Payne's ex-fiancée, Maya Henry, disclosed that he'd always thought he'd die early and that she took on the responsibility of looking out for him when they were still together.

She made the chilling revelation in a recent appearance on "The Internet is Dead podcast," claiming he'd often "played with death."

"There was one time I tried to get him help, but he was not taking it," she said. "He would always message me after we broke up, he would say, 'I'm not well.'"

She continued, "He would always play with death, and be like 'Well I'm going to die, I'm not doing well.' I know the lifestyle that he lives and there is a day that something is going to happen."

"So I would always be like, OK, he's saying these things, I am going to have to help him because I am not going to be able to live with myself if something happens to him," Henry added.
