Kate continued: 'Let me , Liam Payne was my boyfriend. He wasn’t just this famous figure to me.
'It hurts so bad because I am just criticised all the time for speaking about my boyfriend that passed away, the person that I loved and still do love. I would never settle for anyone in this lifetime who did not feel comfortable enough with me speaking about Liam.
'Liam was a very big part of my life. He was my best friend, somebody I really thought I was going to spend the rest of my life with and, obviously, I know one day I'm going to have to move on. I want to get married one day. I want to have kids.

At the beginning of the clip, Kate was smiling as she said to the camera: 'I just got a call from my front desk saying that there's a flower delivery here. Actually have zero idea who these would be from, and I'm a little bit nervous.
'Oh, my God, I love getting flowers. Now we wait patiently for somebody to knock on the door.'
Hearing her dog wake up, Kate told the camera: 'I have a feeling he's here, because Nala just got up.'
Kate marked her second Valentine's Day without Liam by posting a sweet polaroid of the pair of them enjoying a night together to Instagram.
Alongside the post, the blonde wrote: 'Happy Valentine's Day to my best friend from afar.'
