Liam Payne’s girlfriend Kate Cassidy felt like she was in “a hostage situation” with the One Direction alum while deciding whether or not to leave Argentina in the days leading up to his tragic death.
A friend of Cassidy told the New York Post Wednesday that the influencer agonized over her decision before ultimately flying home to Miami.
The pal, whom Cassidy confided in, said she worried Payne might turn to drugs if she left but had no other choice after spending over two weeks in the South American country.
“She can’t leave, or else who knows what will happen? And if she leaves, what will he do?” the friend said of Cassidy’s thought process.
