Since Liam Payne’s tragic death in October 2024, fans and the public have been eager for any news about what’s happening with his estate and those close to him. Recently, his girlfriend, Kate Cassidy, gave a glimpse into her feelings after reports surfaced that she wasn’t included in Liam’s multi-million-dollar estate, worth around $32.2 million.
Kate shared an Instagram story showing a simple photo of her purse — inside, she had just a few personal items like hair extensions and a snack. After this, she posted more selfies, which some interpreted as her way of quietly expressing herself amid the complicated situation.
According to court papers made public on May 1, Liam passed away without leaving a will. This means that, legally, his ex-partner Cheryl Tweedy—who shares an eight-year-old son named Bear with Liam—will manage his assets. A music lawyer named Richard Bray has also been appointed to help oversee things.
Under UK intestacy laws, Bear is set to inherit Liam’s wealth through a trust, ensuring his financial future is secure. An insider told The Mail that Liam always had wise people advising him and that he loved his son deeply. The source shared that Liam wanted to do right by Bear financially and take care of him, no matter what.
While the situation is undoubtedly tough for those left behind, it’s a comfort that Bear will be well provided for. For those who might not know, Liam Payne died at just 31 years old after a tragic accident where he fell from a hotel balcony in Buenos Aires.
