In the aftermath of Liam Payne’s tragic death at 31, his girlfriend, Kate Cassidy, has been spotted for the first time. On October 20, she was seen in Florida, accompanied by friends during a casual outing to buy pet supplies.
The 25-year-old influencer kept it low-key in an oversized graphic tee and sweatpants, with her hair down. They were joined by Nala, the dog Payne and Cassidy rescued together, prompting fans to express concern for her emotional state online. Many noted she appeared exhausted and heartbroken, with comments reflecting empathy and shared grief.
Just days after Payne’s passing in Buenos Aires on October 16, Cassidy took to social media to express her feelings of loss and gratitude for the support she’s received, asking for space to navigate her grief.
Their vacation in Argentina had initially seemed joyful, with the couple sharing happy moments on social media. However, Cassidy left for Florida on October 14, citing travel anxiety, while Payne stayed behind.
Shortly before his death, Payne shared a video on Snapchat depicting a “lovely” day, though some followers noted that he appeared troubled. Observant fans commented on his demeanor, expressing concern for his emotional well-being.
As Cassidy grapples with her loss, the outpouring of support from fans continues to emphasize the bond she shared with Payne and the depth of her heartbreak.
If you see a man with one painted fingernail, here’s what it means
When Elliot Costello and a group of other people visited Cambodia, he had an encounter with a young girl named Thea.
Little did Elliot know that this encounter would have an impact so profound on him that it would help start a movement whose goal is to end sexual abuse against children.
Namely, Thea always had nail polish on her tiny nails. One day, as she and Elliot chatted, she asked to paint one of his nails. He agreed and was happy to speak to the chatty girl, but he then learned that she was once a victim of sexual abuse.
“As she painted one of my nails, I assured her I would always keep it that way to remember her, and by extension, her suffering,” Elliot said.
This motivated Elliot to try and make positive change among men so that less and less children fall victims of sexual abuse.
That is when he came up with the movement called #PolishedMan where men put nail polish on one of their nails. That one nail represents the one in five children who will be victims of sexual violence.
Polished Man works towards ending sexual violence against children. According to the organization, “being a Polished Man means challenging violent behavior and language, both locally and globally.”
Elliot believes that since men are responsible for 96% of this type of violence against children globally, they should be catalyst for change if we are ever to see an end to the abuse of innocent children.
The goal with the painted nail isn’t just to remind people of the number of children who are abused every single day, but to serve as a conversation starter about this reality, leading to new ideas about prevention. He also hopes that people will start donating to “support educational programs and resources for child survivors of abuse,” as per APlus.
We hope that more men, including celebrities would be willing to join this movement.
