Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson and Liam Payne’s old tweets resurface as the One Direction marks 11 years of their hiatus this month.
The globally acclaimed British Irish pop group was formed in 2010 at X-Factor. It consisted of five members namely Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Louis, Niall and Liam.
The group continued to play as a band for five years. During this time, they dropped many hit songs namely What Makes You Beautiful, One Thing, Night Changes, Steal My Girl, Story of My Life and many more.
In August 2015, the band announced their hiatus to pursue their solo careers.
As this month marks their 11-years of break, some of the band members’ old tweets have resurfaced in which they clarified how they are not splitting up rather they are just taking a break.
The Slow Hands singer wrote, “Ok so lots of rumours going round. We are not splitting up, but we will be taking a well-earned break at some point next year.”
Tomlinson wrote in a separate tweet, “Your support is truly indescribable! It’s just a break 🙂 we’re not going anywhere!!”
Meanwhile, Liam, who passed away tragically in 2024, wrote in 2015, “So glad everything has been cleared up today and ur support with it is amazing not that we could ever expect anything less your amazing.”
Even though, 1D singers, before stepping away from spotlight as a band, said that they are just taking a break and hope to return soon.
But it has been over a decade and all of them are doing great in their solo careers. Fans still hope to see them reunite as a group.
