Did Liam Payne’s last ultimatum from Kate Cassidy contribute to his untimely death?

Kate Cassidy gave Liam Payne an ultimatum, "her or the drugs," before his tragic death, sources reveal.

Liam Payne’s girlfriend, Kate Cassidy, reportedly gave the late singer an ultimatum to choose between her and his drug habit days before his tragic fall in Argentina.

 A close friend of Cassidy, a 25-year-old influencer, shared that Payne’s increasing drug use created mounting tension. “She thought she was doing tough love,” the friend disclosed, explaining Cassidy’s departure as an effort to remove herself from a harmful situation.

In the days following her return to Miami, Payne, 31, was found dead in his hotel room. A police report confirmed a toxic mix of drugs, including "pink cocaine," was in his system. Cassidy, who has since criticized alleged drug dealer Braian Nahuel Paiz’s recent statements as "lie after lie," is looking forward to legal proceedings. Paiz, who claimed he and Payne took drugs together but did not supply them, is under investigation along with Payne's friend, Rogelio Nores, as authorities piece together the events leading to the singer's untimely death.
