The model shared photos from the day, including a loved-up picture of her and Liam with his arm around her waist. Liam was suited and booted and Kate wore a lemon off-the-shoulder dress for the occasion. In another photo, the Perfect singer flashed a big smile as he posed alongside his girlfriend and a guest at the wedding reception. Kate captioned it: “The most stunning evening, we celebrate the lovebirds.” Devastated fans have left a flurry of comments on Kate’s post and commented on how happy the pair looked at the time. This emotional follower wrote: “Thank you for making him happy again, even just for a little while, we’ll be always grateful for that. Wish you well, Kate! I know it’s hard but stay strong! We’re trying over here too.” <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate> A second said: “People saying that he was happy in those pics prove that social media are so fake.” A third added: “Thank you for making Liam happy, I’m so sorry for your loss.” In Snapchats shared just minutes before his death, the singer uploaded photos of his food and detailed his plans to play polo.  He filmed Kate, 25, as they ate breakfast, revealing they had been staying at their friend’s home together. The footage saw Liam addressing the camera, saying: “This is the breakfast table, just enjoying breakfast and coffee even though it’s 1pm.” Kate could be heard in the background joking that the pair were “losers” for laying in so late. <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate> Liam was first linked to Kate in October 2022, before making their first&nbsp;red carpet&nbsp;debut together two months later. In March 2023, Kate accompanied Liam to the premiere of documentary All of Those Voices, made by his One Direction bandmate Louis Tomlinson. She shared pictures of herself and <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/entertainment/12690094/watch-liam-payne-first-x-factor-audition-star-dead/" rel="nofollow"> X Factor star Liam </a> at the showbiz event and told her followers: “What a crazy eye opening experience!” Kate added: “@Louist91 well done on such a beautiful&nbsp;film&nbsp;that everybody will love.” Liam’s relationship with Kate came following the end of his engagement with model <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/who/maya-henry/" rel="nofollow"> Maya Henry </a> . The couple ended their romance in June 2021, before reuniting later that year. But they called it quits for good in May 2022. <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate> On Wednesday night, it was confirmed to The Sun that Liam has died. The singer-songwriter was staying at Hotel CasaSur in the neighbourhood of Palermo in Argentina. Witnesses said Liam smashed his laptop and had to be carried back to his room following an erratic incident earlier in the day, TMZ reports. His death was confirmed as soon as ambulance crews arrived. Cops discovered “what appeared to be narcotics, alcohol, destroyed objects and furniture” in his room. Photos published by Argentine&nbsp;media showed white powder, burnt aluminium foil and a smashed TV screen inside his suite. Forensic teams reported that a whiskey bottle, lighter and mobile phone were retrieved from the building’s internal courtyard where Liam’s body was found. <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate> But cops are yet to confirm what the substances found in the room are and are due to run tests on them shortly. The singer had been open about his battles with addiction in the past. Officials have said “everything indicates” that he was alone when he died and could have been partly or fully unconscious when he fell. A full toxicology report is still pending and could take weeks to become public. <h3 class="article-boxout__headline"> Tributes to Liam Payne </h3><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=33sDu0_0wCOKbWI00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=33sDu0_0wCOKbWI00" width="620" height="413" > SHOCKED fans, former co-workers, loved ones and friends flooded social media with sad tributes to Liam Payne after news of his death emerged. <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/entertainment/12690805/liam-payne-harry-styles-mum/" rel="nofollow"> Harry Styles’ mum Anne </a> was among the first from One Direction’s camp to share her reaction, posting a photo of Liam and writing ‘Just a boy…’ alongside a broken heart emoji.
