Liam Payne's girlfriend's tribute: What are angel numbers and what does 444 mean?

Kate Cassidy referenced angel numbers as she revealed she and Liam Payne planned to marry and had been making plans for their future together in the weeks leading up to his tragic passing

Kate Cassidy, the heartbroken girlfriend of Liam Payne, penned a very spiritual tribute to the late star on Wednesday night.

The grieving 25-year-old told fans on social media how she and the One Direction singer planned to marry prior to his death in Argentina last week and had been making plans for their future together in the weeks leading up to his tragic passing.

Kate shared a snippet of a note Liam left her with her 706,000 Instagram followers and referenced the angel number 444. "A few weeks ago, we sat outside on a beautiful evening manifesting our lives together," she shared. "I keep your note close, even though you told me not to look at it. It said, 'Me and Kate to marry within a year/engaged and together forever 444'.

"Liam, I know we'll be together forever, but not in the way we had planned. You'll always be with me. I've gained a guardian angel. I will love you for the rest of my life and beyond, carrying our dreams and memories with me everywhere I go. Forever yours, Katelyn 444."

What are angel numbers?

Do you often pick up your phone and catch the same specific time, like 11:11? Or maybe you routinely notice receipts or invoices totalling an exact amount like £22.22. In the world of numerology, angel numbers are sequences of numbers that often contain repetition or patterns. These digits may pop up in the most mundane places, but they usually catch our eye and spark a sense of wonder.

The fascination with these sequences stems from their symbolic meaning: it's thought that these numbers are messages from the spiritual realm, providing insight, wisdom, and guidance. Whether you attribute them to angels, guides, ancestors, spirits, or simply a higher state of your own consciousness, angel numbers can affirm you're on the right track, provide invaluable insight into complex situations, or even reveal the potent, mystical significance behind recurring themes in your life.

Angel numbers are a guide for deeper spiritual exploration and range from 000 to 999. Each pattern has its own unique meaning and energy. In numerology, patterns appear in sets of three and the more a number is repeated, the stronger its meaning.

What does 444 mean?

In the numerology world, the number 4 has a transformative energy and often represents change. The angel number, 444, signifies a message of love, support as well as guidance from your angels. It's believed that the number serves as a reminder that you are on the right path, with your angels by your side.

Many believe that if you see 444 it is a sign from your angels asking you to watch out for signs from them. "It's not just a number; it's a clear message about spiritual growth, a sign of angelic support, and a confirmation that you're in harmony with your life's divine purpose," angel expert Sunny Dawn Johnston explains. "When you repeatedly see an angel number around you, it’s a sign to pay close attention."

Kate Cassidy's full tribute to Liam Payne

Kate Cassidy shared a heart-wrenching tribute to the late singer on Wednesday night, revealing she is 'shattered' by his untimely death. Posting on her Instagram, she shared a poignant black-and-white photo of them together and penned a deeply emotional message in his memory, days after her initial statement.

She disclosed that they were 'manifesting their lives together' just weeks before his tragic passing at the age of 31. Kate revealed he had written her a touching note, promising they would be married within a year, but asked her not to read it. In her post, she wrote: "I don't even know where to begin. My heart is shattered in ways I can't put into words.

"I wish you could see the huge impact you've had on the world, even as it feels so dark right now. You brought so much happiness and positivity to everyone-millions of fans, your family, friends, and especially me. You are so incredibly loved. You are because I can't say were-my best friend, the love of my life, and everyone you touched felt just as special as I did.

"Your energy was contagious, lighting up every room you walked into. None of this feels real, and I can't wrap my head around this new reality of not having you here. I'm struggling to figure out how to live in a world without you by my side. Together, we got to be kids again, always finding joy in the smallest things."

She continued: "Liam, you had the kindest soul and the most fun-loving spirit. It feels like I've lost the best part of myself. I can't imagine a day without your laughter and love. You brought so much light into my life. A few weeks ago, we sat outside on a beautiful evening manifesting our lives together. I keep your note close, even though you told me not to look at it. It said, "Me and Kate to marry within a year/engaged and together forever 444. " Liam, I know we'll be together forever, but not in the way we had planned. You'll always be with me. I've gained a guardian angel."

Wrapping up her heart-wrenching post, Katie penned: "I will love you for the rest of my life and beyond, carrying our dreams and memories with me everywhere I go. Forever yours, Katelyn 444." Alongside the statement, she posted several touching pictures of the two, including one of her with her arm wrapped around him as they laid down in the snow and smiled for the camera. One picture was a selfie Liam took of the two enjoying Disneyland, with the late singing sticking his tongue out as he posed with a set of Mickey Mouse ears on his head.
