Coming up next, former One Direction member Liam Payne is facing backlash on social media for a comment he made in one of his girlfriend Kate Cassidy's TikTok videos. The couple, who have been dating since 2022, were filming a short clip in their hotel room bathroom before heading out for sushi in Manchester.
In the video, 25-year-old Kate showed off her stylish outfit consisting of a waistcoat, capri set, and designer accessories, while 30-year-old Liam sported a baggier designer look. After Kate finished describing her outfit, Liam, with a deadpan expression, commented, "Looking good, nice and covered up for once."
Unfortunately, this comment did not sit well with some fans who accused Liam of shaming his girlfriend for her outfit choices. One user wrote, " 'For once' is actually insane..." while another commented, "I jumped into the comments to see if this was satire and I'm still not sure." Another fan even urged Kate to run away from Liam, saying, "Girl, run fast fast."
Despite the backlash, there were also fans who defended Liam and saw his comment as a harmless joke. One user wrote, "Can't you guys take a joke? Seriously, don't blame him like that." But as the criticism grew louder, Kate decided to address the controversy in a TikTok video.
In the video, Kate starts by saying, "I've been seeing these comments that Liam is misogynistic because he made a comment that I'm covered up for once." She then goes on to explain that she actually suggested Liam make the comment, as she usually doesn't cover up much in her Instagram posts. The model also clarifies that Liam doesn't care about what she wears.
As she laughs at commenters calling Liam a hypocrite for his comment, Liam suddenly appears in the video, revealing that he has been sitting across from Kate the whole time. He then explains that his song "Strip That Down" is actually about keeping music production stripped down and has nothing to do with how Kate dresses.
Kate is the latest in Liam's string of high profile relationships, including a brief romance with Cheryl, with whom he shares a son. The couple has been dating since 2022 and seems to have a strong and supportive relationship.
