Liam Payne‘s heartbroken girlfriend Kate Cassidy is spending New Year’s Eve caring for the beloved dog they adopted just weeks before his death.
The influencer, 25, hasn’t posted on social media since his shock death after he fell from a third floor balcony at the CasaSur Palermo hotel in Buenos Aires on October 16.
Sources have now revealed that Kate will be marking the end of a devastating year with close friends in New York, and her rescue dog Nala, who she and Liam adopted over the summer.
A source told The Sun: ‘New Year’s Eve won’t be a celebratory occasion but she’s got her nearest and dearest around her.
‘Nala is also a huge source of comfort. In many ways, she’s all Kate has left of Liam.’
MailOnline has contacted a representative for Kate Cassidy for comment.
