Liam Payne has been dubbed a “raging misogynist” after making comments on his girlfriend’s outfit.
Former One Direction star Liam, 30, had been romantically linked to former X Factor co-star Cheryl, before the pair officially called it quits. Since the end of 2022, he has been in a relationship with blonde bombshell Kate Cassidy and it seemed like things were going from strength to strength.
Fans had been thrilled for the singer, as it appeared he had finally settled down with his new beau. But following a comment he made on one of his girlfriend’s Tiktok videos, his fans have been left stunned and livid with the performer.

Liam was spotted in the background as Kate showed off her outfit as the couple headed out for a night on the town in Manchester. Payne had also shown off his outfit, before Kate flaunted hers, leading to the controversial quip.
Showing off her look, Liam could be heard saying: “Looking good, nice and covered up, for once.” The clip soon went viral, as outraged viewers slammed Liam for his outdated views.
Taking to Twitter, where the clip spread the most, many aired their frustrations on the singer’s remarks, blasting him for his rhetoric. One user fumed: “I never liked him, not even when I was a hormonal teenager.”
Several other disgruntled fans saw the hypocrisy of Liam’s comments, given his slew of shirtless snaps on his own profile. “‘Looking good, nice and covered up for once’???? Girl I know you faking that laugh at the end,” one user slammed in a scathing review of the video.
Another user added: “The fact that he would always claim to be the ‘nice’ and ‘kind’ one from 1D – yikes! A soon to be raging misogynist.”
Other fans took it upon themselves to analyse Liam’s body language. One commentator posted: “Liam looks truly uncomfortable I mean you can literally tell from his body language & facial expression.”
Liam and Kate have been romantically linked since October of 2022. Kate, 25, met Liam after he had called off his engagement to previous beau Maya Henry, amid accusations of cheating.
This was not the first relationship that Liam has had after garnering worldwide fame, however. Back in 2016, Liam and Cheryl got together, despite their first meeting when he was just 16 years old.
The pair welcomed one child into the world together – Bear Grey Payne, but just a year after their baby boy was born, the couple confirmed they would be splitting. It was at this point, as Liam began to emerge from his relationship to the Girls Aloud star, that rumours began to swirl about his relationship with now former flame Maya.
