Liam Payne Allegedly Paid up to $35K a Month for His Girlfriend Kate Cassidy’s Lifestyle — Who Will Inherit the ‘One Direction’ Idol’s Fortune?

It’s been almost two months since Liam Payne’s tragic passing and new details have emerged about the lavish lifestyle he funded for his girlfriend, Kate Cassidy, and who stands to inherit his fortune in light of his death.

Now, attention turns to the singer’s fortune, approximately millions amassed from his boy band days and solo career. With questions lingering about who will inherit his wealth and mysteries surrounding his tragic final hours, one question remains — what truly happened in Liam’s final chapter?

Following Liam’s passing in October, sources revealed that the former One Direction star funded Kate’s lavish lifestyle, providing her a monthly allowance of $10,000 for living expenses.

On top of that, the influencer and model reportedly had access to the late singer’s credit card, which she frequently used for high-end clothing and other purchases totaling an estimated $25,000 each month.

They initially moved into a sprawling five-bedroom property in Wellington, Florida, which Liam rented for $9,950 monthly. However, they transitioned to a new mansion just blocks away in the same exclusive community in September.

Onlookers described her as visibly emotional as she stood surrounded by her possessions, clutching a colorful stuffed toy. Friends stepped in to assist Kate as she relocated her belongings, preparing to return to the U.S. to spend time with family during the holidays.

While Kate has her own income, friends acknowledged that her lifestyle with Liam afforded her luxuries she could not maintain on her own. “Kate has money of her own, so it’s not like she’ll have nowhere to be. She doesn’t have the money that Liam had, of course, but she’s not broke,” her close friend revealed.

She also took to Instagram to share an emotional message that read in part, “Liam, I know we’ll be together forever, but not in the way we had planned. You’ll always be with me. I’ve gained a guardian angel. I will love you for the rest of my life and beyond, carrying our dreams and memories with me everywhere I go.”

Liam’s son Bear, from his relationship with Cheryl Tweedy, stands to inherit his father’s carefully secured fortune. Bear, now seven years old, will reportedly receive the estimated £30 million, around $38 million, the singer amassed during his successful career as part of One Direction and his solo ventures.

The former One Direction member also invested in property and bought a mansion in Buckinghamshire, England. “Liam had some very sensible people around him for a time, and he adored Bear so much,” said a source close to the late star.

“He always wanted to do the right thing by him financially. It is a small consolation that Bear will never want for anything, that he will at least benefit from that,” they further noted.

Kate, on the other hand, has reportedly decided not to claim any part of her late boyfriend’s estate. “She says she’s not going to claim anything from his estate because they weren’t married and he has a son,” a friend shared.

However, as loved ones cope with the emotional toll of his passing, unanswered questions about the circumstances of Liam’s death continue to linger. Argentinian authorities are still investigating the events surrounding his fall from a third-floor balcony at the CasaSur Palermo Hotel.

According to reports, Liam had spent part of the day with two women, Aldana Serrano and Lucila Goitea, who visited his hotel room between 11:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Their departure was delayed due to a payment dispute, sparking speculation that Liam may have used the watch as payment.

Both women gave sworn statements and allowed police to search their homes, but no sign of the missing Rolex was found. Authorities have yet to rule out foul play at the time of writing, and have stated that additional searches of Liam’s hotel suite are planned.

“We know from images that Liam had the watch on the day of his death,” a judicial source shared with Argentinian media, further fueling speculation.

Liam Payne’s life was one of immense talent, generosity, and love that ended under tragic and mysterious circumstances. As his son stands to inherit a secure future, fans and loved ones continue to remember the late star’s legacy.
