Kate's followers were left feeling emotional after watching the video as they took to the comments to share their love and support for Liam's grieving girlfriend.

"You are so strong Kate. I just know he's looking down on you and smiling today. You have held yourself with such grace and courage and you should be so proud of yourself," one TikTok user commented. "OMG I'm crying so hard. I still can't believe he's gone and he would have been 32 today. What a beautiful man he was," another echoed.

"Kate you are amazing. We all love you and so does Liam. We got you," someone else gushed. " You've got this girl. I can't imagine how difficult today must have been for you and Liam's family. I know he's still looking out for you, wherever he may be now."

It comes after Kate got emotional as she opened up to her followers online while talking about grief. She shared a candid Instagram upload to try to help others deal with grief.

Kate revealed she is often asked on the social media platform about Liam's death and how she copes with his loss.

She decided to answer a number of the queries, getting emotional when she mentioned the singer's name. Kate began by saying she was hoping to help others deal with their grief by sharing her thoughts.

Kate said grief feels like "a world that you wake up in and it doesn't make any sense anymore, especially when you lose somebody so suddenly and unexpectedly you almost have such a hard time forgiving the world for ripping that person away from you."

She went on to say she sometimes feels "numb," while other times it can be emotional. And she admitted she feels as though her personal grief will last a "lifetime". "Grief does not come with an expiration date," she added. "It's not something you learn to get over, it's something you learn to carry with".

Responding to a question regarding grieving in the right way, Kate said: "This question resonates with me a lot because there is no handbook or no guidelines to grief. Everybody deals with it a different way."

She opened up on her own daily changes, admitting she often feels like different ways can help her. That includes "being in sweats" or "dressing up".

Kate went on to urge people not to judge those who grieve differently. And she admitted she copes in a number of ways, including by "wearing my loved ones' clothes to bed".

She also said reading old letters and notes can help her. "It makes me feel so much more attached to him. Reading something in somebody's handwriting makes you hear their voice in your head while you're reading it so that helps me a lot.

"And looking through old photos and videos. It doesn't always have to be sad. Grief is a reminder that you were able to experience love."

As she tried to continue, Kate clearly got teary-eyed as she stuttered: "And I'm so lucky to have experienced that with um, Liam."

Liam and Kate met in a scenario straight out of a rom-com, when the then-ordinary waitress served the megastar at a bar in Charleston, South Carolina, in 2022.

For Liam, the attraction was immediate, and he asked for her number straight away.

She told fans of their sweet love story as she previously shared a TikTok of the moment. And Liam told his fans he "never felt a love like I do for Katelyn," adding: "We make each other better people."
