Liam Payne's Partner Shares Poignant Post On What Would Have Been His 32nd Birthday
Sep 03, 2025
One Direction star Liam Payne fell to his death from a hotel balcony while traveling in Argentina back in October 2024, and August 29, 2025, would have been his 32nd birthday.
His girlfriend of two years, Kate Cassidy, has since been very open about her grief on Instagram—trying to find joy in her life, taking care of herself the way she believed Payne would have wanted, and sharing signs that she felt Payne had left behind for her.
Some of those signs have included randomly receiving a crown at a fast-food restaurant with a sweet note, clouds appearing in the shape of an angel's wings, as well as the spiritual number 444, meant to suggest guidance and protection.
On August 29, Cassidy found herself trying especially hard to enjoy the day and to celebrate the memory of Payne, rather than sitting with the grief she's carried with her for the past 11 months.
So on Instagram, she paid tribute to her late partner, including a series of photos that captured Payne's buoyant and funny personality, as well as the love that the couple clearly shared.
Cassidy wrote on Instagram:
"My dearest Liam,"
"It breaks my heart being that I can’t hand you a physical birthday card today. That I can’t hear your laugh, or tell you all the things I wish I’d said a thousand more times."
"I’ve been struggling to find the right words, but I’ll start with the most obvious, happy birthday. Today, you would have been 32."
"In your 31 years here on this earth, you brought so much joy, happiness, and hope to so many, especially to me. I hope you know how brightly you still shine, even from up there. I would give up years of my life just to give you a few more."
"I miss making memories with you. I miss having things to look forward to together. But today, my birthday gift to you is my strength. I promise you I will celebrate you extra today, honor your life, and cherish the beautiful times we’ve had."
"August 29th will be a date that sits in my heart for the rest of my life. I love you so much."
"Yours, Katelyn"

Given how Cassidy writes of Payne's energy, ability to light up a room, and determination to live life to the fullest, it seems there'd be no better birthday present than to know his girlfriend was also trying to live life to the fullest amidst the grief.

Chloë Grace Moretz Just Married Her Longtime Girlfriend—And They Look Absolutely Stunning
Sep 03, 2025
Summer in the U.S. usually brings a spate of weddings, and this year has been no exception!
Actor Chloë Grace Moretz married her longtime girlfriend, model and photographer Kate Harrison, over Labor Day weekend.
The ceremony was private and the location was not revealed. Both women wore gowns by Nicolas Ghesquière for Louis Vuitton. Moretz, a Louis Vuitton ambassador, wore baby blue and Harrison wore traditional white.
Moretz shared the happy news on Instagram, complete with a splashy Vogue exclusive.
Folks were quick to congratulate the happy couple.
Many commenters were surprised by the announcement, having missed Moretz's public coming out less than a year ago. The couple began dating back in 2018 but kept it mostly under wraps. Moretz came out last autumn when throwing her support behind then Vice-President Kamala Harris' run for president.
Moretz had previously dated Brooklyn Beckham, son of soccer star David Beckham.
A couple commenters were very succinct in offering their excited surprise.
In addition to the gowns, Louis Vuitton also made their cowboy-vibed after-party ensembles, which Moretz described as "yee-haw, baby."
Folks were equally wowed by how hush-hush the event was, being a wedding between an actor and model. It shouldn't be too surprising, really, as Moretz and Harrison kept their entire relationship secret for eight years before having even one photo of them together leaked to the media.
People were impressed by the couple's stealth.
Fans addressed comments that facetiously asked "where is the groom?"
In response to those haters, folks really leaned into celebrating how well everything appears to have gone at the wedding, which included a weekend full of activities in addition to the ceremony. Among these were fishing, horseback riding, and poker, activities enjoyed by Moretz and Harrison.
The couple hinted at their engagement earlier this year, sharing pictures that included a shot of their engagement rings.

Possibly known best for her work in Kick Ass, Moretz recently has been taking mostly animated roles, including the voice of Nimona in the 2023 film of the same name.

CEO Who Snatched Tennis Player's Hat From Kid At U.S. Open Speaks Out To Apologize
Sep 03, 2025
Piotr Szczerek became the internet's latest super villain a few days ago thanks to a viral video showing him snatching a tennis player's hat from a young fan.
Szczerek, the CEO of Polish paving company Drogbruk, was shown wresting the hat that tennis player Kamil Majchrzak had autographed for the boy at the U.S. Open, sparking major outrage.
The moment is downright mean-spirited, and the boy's crestfallen face as Szczerek and his companion appear to laugh during the incident as they shoved the hat into a bag had people furious.
Now, Szczerek has spoken out to apologize for what he had said was a mistake and a misunderstanding.
In a post on Facebook, Szczerek claimed that is was not his "intent to steal away a prized memento from the young fan."
"I became caught up in the heat of the moment and the joy of the victory, and I believed Majchrzak was handing a hat to me to give to my sons, who had previously asked for autographs."
That is not at all what the footage seems to show, however.
In the video, Szczerek appears to be waiting for the exact moment Majchrzak finished signing the hat so he could snatch it away at precisely the right moment, smiling the entire time.
The young boy can also be seen pleading with Szczerek to give the hat back, which Szczerek clearly ignores.
It's pretty hard to square the visuals with Szczerek's claims. Nevertheless, he apologized profusely.
Szczerek wrote:
"I would like to unequivocally apologize to the young boy, his family, all the fans, and the player himself..."
"...Regardless of what I believed was happening, the actions I took hurt the young boy and disappointed the fans."
Szczerek went on to say that he had sent the autographed hat back to the boy, and pledged to up the ante on the years-long charity work he says he and his wife have done to "support children and young athletes."
He also claimed that social media comments attributed to him and his wife, in which they doubled down on the incident and threatened to sue those criticizing them, were fake.
Given the disconnect between the video and Szczerek's version of events, not many people were buying his apology.
But the story does have a happy ending, at least for Majchrzak and the boy in question.
After the incident went viral, Majchrzak reached out to his Instagram followers to see if they could help him identify the boy.
It worked, and the player did a meet-and-greet with his young fan, at which he snapped photos with him and gifted him a replacement hat for the one that was taken from him.
Their meet-up has definitely warmed the internet's hearts.
It's so easy to just not be an insufferable jerk. More people should try it!

MAGA Rep. Dragged After Falling For Obviously AI-Generated Video Of Tim Walz Mocking Trump
Sep 03, 2025
West Virginia MAGA Republican Representative Riley Moore was mocked after he flipped out online over an obvious deepfake video of Minnesota Democratic Governor Tim Walz disparaging MAGA's Dear Leader, Republican President Donald Trump.
Moore joins other gullible individuals who have fallen for AI-generated false representations of prominent Democrats. The depictions are so ludicrous, only someone easily fooled would fall for them.
Moore reposted an AI generated video of the 2024 Democratic vice presidential candidate dancing on an escalator to the Pussycat Dolls' song "Don’t Cha" while wearing a T-shirt that said "F*CK TRUMP."
Moore captioned the video on X:
"If you were at the mall with your kids and this guy rolled down the escalator, you would call the cops and get him banned."
The X community swiftly corrected Moore's blunder with a context note stating, "This is AI and not a video of Tim Walz."
The original post Moore shared had also been flagged as fake with its own community note, "...this is clearly AI"—which the creator of the video readily admitted and even told outraged MAGA minions as much.
Even Grok corrected Moore.
@grok/X
Moore wasn't the only one in the MAGAsphere who was easily fooled.

@byelin/X
But unlike his fellow MAGA members who freaked out about the video...
...Moore occupies a seat in Congress. His inability to distinguish AI from reality drew mockery from the masses.

MAGA Republican Representative Riley Moore is the grandson of former West Virginia Republican Governor and Representative Arch Moore Jr. and the nephew of GOP U.S. Senator Shelly Moore Capito.
Whether nepotism is the only reason he's in Congress is something West Virginia voters will have to decide when Riley Moore is up for reelection in 2026.

RFK Jr. Gets Hilariously Brutal Reminder After Asking People What Their First Jobs Were
Sep 03, 2025
Health and Human Services Secretary (HHS) Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was widely mocked after he published a post on X on Labor Day asking people to share what their first job was—a rather odd question from a man who faces regular criticism for being utterly unqualified for his role overseeing the nation’s public health apparatus.
Kennedy wrote the following on X:
"Happy Labor Day! What was your first job?"
You can see his post below.
But Kennedy's post soon backfired after someone resurfaced a 2024 Atlantic article headlined, “RFK Jr. Was My Drug Dealer.” The magazine's editorial staff noted that Kennedy did not respond to the magazine’s request for comment.
In the piece, author Kurt Andersen recounts buying cocaine from Kennedy while both were at Harvard in 1972. Kennedy has previously spoken openly about his history of drug addiction and once claimed that using drugs made him perform better in school.
Andersen wrote:
“The dealer was Bobby Kennedy. I’d never met him. I got in touch; he said sure, come over."
"He poured out a line for me to sample, and handed me an inch-and-a-half length of plastic drinking straw. I snorted. We chatted for a minute. I paid him, I believe, $40 in cash. It was a lot of money, the equivalent of $300 today.”
The story added to the controversy surrounding Kennedy—a conspiracy theorist and leader of the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement—who for years struggled with substance abuse.
Notably, Kennedy's first cousin Caroline Kennedy later accused him of leading other family members “down the path of drug addiction,” calling him a “predator.” Kennedy continued using heroin and cocaine at Harvard and developed a reputation as both a “pied piper” and a “drug dealer" per Anderson and other sources.
Not a good look for the nation's leading public health official, right?
Kennedy was criticized almost immediately.
This is a classic case of "think before you tweet."
