Influencer Kate, 25, had been dating Liam for two years when he died.
She had been with him in Argentina until two days before his death.
Last night, Kate shared an touching video on TikTok of herself in Charleston, in the US state of South Carolina.
She explained to fans this is where she met the late star, as she used to live and work there.
Kate then revealed how her friends had laid on a feast of McDonald’s treats, as this was Liam’s favorite food.
The grieving girlfriend revealed how she wanted this to be a “peaceful moment” rather than “sad”, as she remembered the star at the place they found love.
Kate then talked about how her and Liam loved “make a wish paper”.
She explained: “You write down your wishes and then light it up, and hope it comes true” – she then revealed she was doing this in “honour of Liam”.
Kate and her friends then proceeded to light up small sheets of “wish paper” as they made wishes for Liam, and threw them up into the air.
Some of the paper failed to fly away, causing the Influencer to fall off back on her chair and start laughing.
She added: “Liam is definitely making fun of us right now.”
It should be noted, people shouldn’t copy this as playing with matches and paper is extremely dangerous.
KATE’S STRUGGLE
Spending time with her friends comes as some light relief for Kate, who has had an incredibly tough time, trying to come to terms with Liam’s shock death.
Last month, she discussed how she was finding life and dealing with the pain of such an enormous loss.

Speaking to ITV‘s Lorraine, she said: “I’m going through this healing journey, sometimes it’s hard for me to get out of bed in the morning and something I don’t want to do.
“But I have this responsibility and this obligation that I am almost in a way… I have no choice.
“I have to get out of bed (for my dog) Nala and whether it’s a five-minute walk or 20-minute walk first thing in the morning.
“Either way, it just wakes me up and refreshes my mind instead of laying in bed all day just scrolling through social media or old photos, it gets me out of bed and really, really helps my mindset and my mental health.”

LOSING LIAM
Kate had been staying with Liam in Argentina but flew back to America before his fatal accident.
In an interview with The Sun last month she revealed his death “still doesn’t feel fully real”.
She added: “Love is so optimistic, and you just hope that everything will work out at the end.
“Obviously if I knew, if I could see into the future, I would never have left Argentina.”
