In a new TikTok video, Kate 25, showed off her black waistcoat with a plunging neckline and a pair of figure-hugging trousers ahead of their romantic night out in Manchester. 

But Liam didn’t look impressed and simply responded: “Looking good, nice and covered up for once.”

Some fans were left fuming at the comment and slammed him as a hypocrite after the Strip That Down singer recently shared a topless snap of himself with his fans.

One wrote: “’Looking good, nice and covered up for once’ ???? Girl I know you faking that laugh at the end.”

A second posted: “The fact that he would always claim to be the ‘nice’ and ‘kind’ one from One Direction… yikes! A soon to be raging misogynist.”

A third echoed: “Free her omg, Liam looks truly uncomfortable I mean you can literally tell from his body language & facial expression.”

This person added: ” It took me until the third instance of me seeing this video to realize that man is LIAM PAYNE?! Wtf! I never liked him not even when i was a hormonal teenager.”

But not all fans felt that way and rushed to defend the singer.

One wrote: “So many people think they know exactly what’s going on based on a 6 seconds video. It’s disgusting how so many people find it so easy to hate. Shame on you.”

While another agreed and said: “Why do people get so mad when a man expresses how he likes his gf to dress? She obviously still wears what she wants.”

Liam had been due to spill the beans on his pop career and personal struggles in a shocking tell-all documentary.

But The Sun revealed in July that he has shelved plans for a revealing movie about his life, which was set to feature unseen home videos and cover his darkest moments.

Several production companies had shown an interest in the project when it was first pitched last year.

But it has now been put on hold due to Liam’s ill health — he has been ­hospitalised twice — and his decision to focus on his music.

A source said: “This time last year, Liam was all fired up about his comeback and teasing new music, but then his health deteriorated.

“He has hours and hours of footage, and there was interest from various production companies, but in the end he decided not to take things further.”

It was hoped the film would have been released on Netflix or Prime Video to coincide with the launch of Liam’s second solo album.

However, in recent months momentum around the release, which was initially tipped for later this year, has also slowed.

It’s been a rough 12 months for the singer, who ended up in hospital last August with a nasty kidney infection while rehearsing for the South American tour that would have been his first solo trek since leaving 1D.

At the time, he told fans he hoped it would be rescheduled.

But weeks later, The Sun revealed he was back in hospital with kidney trouble after falling ill on a trip to Italy’s Lake Como with influencer girlfriend Kate.

In March, the star released his first track in three years, Teardrops.

The emotional ballad saw Liam, who was previously engaged to model Maya Henry, open up about struggling to find The One.

But things have been quiet since then.

‘Taking time out’

Last month, the singer struck a new deal with US talent agency CAA.

That’s a sign Liam, who has been spending more and more days on the other side of the Pond, is considering expanding his career beyond the UK.

With Liam remaining upbeat about the future, an insider added: “While he is far ­better than he was towards the end of last year, Liam is still taking time out to focus on himself.

“His comeback is a ­moving picture, but the plan is to release new music within the next two months.”
