Liam Payne #6

I hate thinking this because I want to see the best in people but it honestly just seems like Kate gave it 12 weeks and has already jumped on the cash wagon. I expect she will do lots more podcasts, maybe write a book then eventually will try and do reality tv while bringing back her TikTok. I understand she’s become accustomed to a certain lifestyle but it’s so off that she’s speaking out so quickly- I mean Liam’s family haven’t even had proper closure yet.

I just feel a bit indifferent about it to be honest.
She didn't say anything horrifying, and there's nothing bad there for his son to look back on bar the fact that he did seem to be either longer term or permanently moving to Florida, which he was probably aware of to some extent anyway.

To an extent she's also verified Geoff's version of events by making it clear she did love him, and wasn't some glorified carer also providing a bedroom service.

Sadly I think we'll see far worse in the trial and lawsuit than anything Kate has or may divulge, she's set her line now with she knew he had issues but was currently in a good place etc, and whilst it may not be the whole truth she's probably trying to protect herself and also protect Liam's memory too, which I won't hold against her as plenty of us have some sort of blinkers on when it comes to our nearest and dearest.

They just said on This Morning that her team reached out to the Sun in December…
The journalist described her as very sweet, nervous and image conscious and scared of saying the wrong thing and upsetting anyone.

Yeah I think it’s clear it’s a very calculated interview and tbh, the right questions weren’t answered and I don’t buy half of what she said.

The last “messages” of, I can’t wait for you to come home and start a family is such a weird thing…. Like as if they never talk?! Mine are all just random tit. Right not my partner’s last message is a gif of someone dancing 🤣

Something isn’t adding up, I think she isn’t being honest for his family and dignity which is absolutely fine. Just don’t do an interview then, or seek one out

Exactly. And if she was that nervous and conscious of how she comes across, The Sun is not the first place I would instruct my team to reach out to.

Plus, if this was my family member, I’d be sad they did an interview full stop - even if they omitted the worst bits for image preservation.

Ex-PR here, she would have known Q's beforehand. That's standard anyway for interviews like this.

Obv she wants to maintain her life of luxury (she has like 20k of Cartier jewellery on in this interview lmao) and her team were probably pitching this interview to the highest bidder. We will probably see her return to social media, she won't do this then fade away, that's for sure..

Even the comments on TM about her being nervous seem like a PR push, tbh. Her team will have been all over the internet reading comments. 👋

Even though Kate's mum is English, she herself obviously is American as she grew up there. I think it's more typical of Americans to come out with that clichéd sort of stuff, no? As in, ''I can't wait for you to come back so we can be a family.'' Who knows, it's not like we'll ever see their text messages, either way, their last messages will probably just have been something completely mundane and unremarkable.

It is but everyone picks apart everything she says or does so she probably just wanted to put a "nope" on it all. If she mentioned certain times he was drinking or let on she knew he was drinking then it opens cans of worms about the drug use too. Also as said above if she's gave a statement to the police in Argentina she probably doesn't want to rock the boat.
I'd imagine regardless of her relationship with Bear too, out of love for Liam and the respect of Bear being his son, she probably doesn't want the nitty gritty out there from her about Liams addictions.
She doesn't owe the public anything, far less Liams secrets.
People will hate on her for selling her story but from what I can see of it it's been done in a respectful enough way. I don't image she'd have gotten anything from Liams estate and she seems to have been staying with her parents so I guess she has to make money some way. I know that sounds cold but I think so long as she keeps it respectful (I know it was to the sun) there's no real harm in it.
It's all already out there though. She can't "nope" something that's there's physical evidence of.
If she's had any role in the Argentina investigation, however small, she should stay quiet until that's over. Ditto if she had any respect for Bear.

And you're quite right, she doesn't owe the public anything, so why bother with the interview in the first place? I've been quite defensive of Kate so far but this screams "money grab". There's plenty of ways to earn money other than selling your story, regardless of whether she painted him in a good light.

She's also posted an IG story trying to justify the interview. She's proving all the stans right, she's doing it to cash in. She doesn't need to "share her experience". Just say you love and and miss him, noone needs to know anything more.

And the actual audacity of mentioning the “thousands of messages from Liam’s fans seeking clarity”: whether the stans are right or not — and I would not DM a dead celebrity’s girlfriend — this is not the clarity the majority of them would have been asking for. It gives such “I received so many messages about my dress — here’s the link!!! [referral code / ad]” vibes.

She's going to get a lot more hate for this than she realises. She's either really calculating and cashing in while she can, or she's incredibly naive. Last week I'd have said the latter, but it's starting to look like the former.

I agree, tbh. And fueling the fire now means there’ll potentially be the option of re-cashing in in the future: “five years on from his untimely death, Kate Cassidy speaks about losing the love of her life and the vicious trolling she endured for speaking her truth in the wake of Liam’s balcony fall.” I can see it now.

Isn't it at the end of the day a bit of a fluff piece?
If there was insinuations out there I was potentially being a high level entertainer/carer for my vulnerable partner, I'd probably want to set the record straight too, especially as there's legalities involved.

Would I go to The Sun and potentially accept payment for it? Probably not but the rich and famous honestly seem to live on a different plane somewhat to the rest of us 🤪

Were there genuine claims she was his glorified entertainer? I've never come across that before, the first I'm seeing of that is on this thread.
