Kate referred to Liam as her “angel,” vowing to love him “for the rest of her life.” She included “444” in her tribute, which is considered an angel number in numerology.
The couple had traveled to Buenos Aires to attend his former bandmate Niall Horan’s concert on October 4. Liam stayed in Argentina after Kate returned home on October 14.
In her emotional message, she wrote, “Thank you for all of the kind words and love that has been sent my way. I ask and pray that you’ll give me the grace and space to navigate this in private.”

Kate and Liam began dating in October 2022, making their red carpet debut at the Fashion Awards later that year. In May 2023, rumors of their split emerged.
A source told US Weekly, “Liam and Kate have broken up.” However, the couple dispelled these rumors by going on a date in London in June 2023. Kate was also there for Liam during a hospitalization for a serious kidney infection.
Just days before his death, Kate shared a touching post featuring Liam horseback riding in the countryside. She wrote, “I am very grateful for the simple things in life.”
Before his death, Liam shared a final Snapchat post with Kate, where they appeared happy and posed together. In a recent TikTok video, Kate recounted how they first met in California. She had desperately tried to get off work that evening but ended up serving Liam.
Troubling signs before Liam Trayne’s death
In the hours leading up to his death, Liam experienced distressing events. He received an email that reportedly made him furious, leading him to smash his laptop in the hotel lobby. A witness said he shouted, “F*** this s**t mate!” and then broke his laptop.
Liam was reportedly going through a difficult period.
He had recently been dropped by his record label, Universal Music, ending his plans for a second solo album.
Additionally, his ex-fiancée, Maya James, had initiated legal proceedings against him. She claimed that Liam had “predicted he would die early” and accused him of obsessively contacting her.
A guest at the Casa Sur Palmero hotel described Liam’s erratic behavior before the tragic incident. Rebecca, who stayed at the hotel for a wedding, encountered Liam in the foyer. She noted that Liam had not checked out by late afternoon, even though he was scheduled to do so.
At 4:26 PM local time, she took photos and recalled Liam making a “boy band” comment. Just 36 minutes later, hotel staff raised the alarm following Liam’s fall. An ambulance arrived shortly after, but he was certified dead soon after.
