The four remaining members released a final album and announced an extended hiatus in August Since the announcement of the so-called hiatus, members have gone on to pursue solo interests and have commented on potential reunions as well as their current relationships with their bandmates. Here's everything members of One Direction have said about the band and each other since announcing their hiatus:.
In his first solo interview since leaving the band, Zayn Malik told Fader magazine that One Direction's music was "generic as f" and that it didn't fit his style. There was just a general conception that the management already had of what they want for the band and I just wasn't convinced with what we were selling," he told the publication. He told Rolling Stone , "That's not music I would listen to Would you listen to One Direction at a party with your girl? I wouldn't. To me, that's not an insult, that's me as a year-old man.
I want to make music that I think is cool s I don't think that's too much to ask for," he added. In , Malik teased the release of new music on Twitter. He shared the announcement along with " RealMusic. Many fans interpreted this as a jab at One Direction's discography, feeling as though Malik meant to imply the music he had previously made with One Direction was fake or not quite up to his standards. In , in his first solo, on-camera interview with radio station Beats 1 , Malik said he never wanted to be in One Direction.
Malik told Us Weekly he and Styles were not close while they were in the band together. He said he "never really spoke to Harry" and that he had never been under the impression they would keep in touch after Malik left the band. That same year, he told Billboard that he doesn't really talk to anyone in the band anymore. But no, I don't talk to any of them, really. In an interview with GQ , Malik said he "didn't make any friends from the band.
This came as a surprise to fans because in the Facebook post announcing his departure , Malik wrote that he had "four friends for life. In a cover story, Malik explained he felt underrepresented in terms of the music One Direction was producing.
He told GQ , "My vision didn't necessarily always go with what was going on within the band. He discussed the band's sudden rise to fame and rigorous touring schedule saying, "I think back to the performances towards the end when we were in stadiums — I wasn't really ever able to enjoy the experience.
The machine had gone too fast. The youngest member of One Direction, Harry Styles, has since released a critically acclaimed album , gone on a world tour, and co-chaired the Met Gala.
Since the band's split, he has been relatively quiet about his relationships with the other members of One Direction, but he has mentioned his distant relationship with one member in particular, Malik. If you're not enjoying something and need to do something else, you absolutely should do that. I'm glad he's doing what he likes, and good luck to him," said Styles. In that same interview, when asked why the band agreed to take a hiatus, Styles told Rolling Stone he "didn't want to exhaust [the band's] fan base" and spoke for the other members saying, "We all thought too much of the group to let that happen.
Styles went on to entertain ideas of a future reunion, saying, "I love the band and would never rule out anything in the future. The band changed my life, gave me everything. Styles told Another Man magazine that a One Direction reunion would never be ruled out.
He thinks it is good for the members to be "exploring different things," but that if a reunion were to happen when everyone felt comfortable, it would be "amazing. During his turn hosting and performing on "Saturday Night Live," Styles made a reference to his boy-band days, saying, "I love those guys, they're my brothers: Niall, Liam, Louis, and, uh, Ringo, yeah, that's it.
By swapping out Malik's name with Ringo Starr's, Styles referenced how Malik was the first person to leave One Direction — sort of how Starr was technically the first member to leave The Beatles. In March , Styles said that, looking back, he doesn't necessarily think Malik's leaving the band was a bad thing. I just didn't feel that way. On One Direction's year anniversary , Styles shared a photo on Instagram of all five band members hugging on a stage. In the caption, he wrote, "I've been struggling to put into words how grateful I am for everything that's happened over the last ten years.
I've seen things and places that I'd only ever dreamt of when I was growing up. I've had the pleasure of meeting and working with some of the most incredible people, and gained friendships that I know I will treasure for the rest of my life.
He continued, "None of this would be possible without the support you've given along the way. And for that, I will be forever thankful. I just can't believe it's been ten years. Thank you to our crew, our team, and everyone else who helped us along the way. You did it all, and you changed everything. And finally.. Here's to ten. During his December Vogue cover interview, Styles spoke about what it was like being in One Direction. It was all new to me, and I was trying to learn as much as I could.
He added, "I wanted to soak it in I think that's probably why I like traveling now—soaking stuff up. Styles told Variety that he "learned so much" from being part of the band, and that he wanted to write with so many different people. Now I get to do what I really want to do. He continued, "I think there's a wont to pit people against each other. And I think it's never been about that for us. It's about a next step in evolution. Styles also said that seeing how he and his fellow bandmates have achieved so many different things "says a lot about how hard we worked in it.
He didn't sing any solo parts on the show and was never the band's frontman. Over the years, he began to perform more solos on the band's albums and during live tours. And then it was: 'OK, hiatus!
When beginning his own solo career, Tomlinson expressed uncertainty in his ability to team up with any superstar collaborators. In , he told The Guardian , "I couldn't say to you now that I could definitely get a superstar writer in a session with me," later adding, "Harry [Styles] won't struggle with any of that. Tomlinson has already released music with Bebe Rexha and Steve Aoki and his bandmates have also had created hit songs with famed artists. Days like today are days for reflection, so proud looking back!
Big love to the lads! In a interview with ODE Entertainment , Louis Tomlinson said he feels a One Direction reunion is "inevitable" but he doesn't know when exactly it'll happen. In a later interview with "Build" that same year, the singer said he wasn't really ready for the band to go on a break. He said he ended up writing a lot of songs and liking some, so he decided to pursue a solo singing career. In December , Tomlinson's' mom Johannah Deakin died of leukemia.
He was previously slated to perform on "The X Factor" just days after her death so he stuck to his commitment and performed his first solo song in her honor.
He said all of his former bandmates except for Malik came to see him perform. Tomlinson later spoke about the incident on the "The Dan Wootton Interview" podcast in All the boys had agreed to come to that performance and he didn't show so that really bugged me It was just seeing everyone there — Harry, Niall, and Liam — that was what I needed that night, that support," he said.
In October , the singer told Metro that he didn't think he was ready to decide whether or not he could forgive Malik. At the moment, I am still pretty mad about the whole thing," he told the publication. But never say never.
Who knows? He chatted a lot of s in the early days. I thought One Direction were pretty good," he added. There's been moments in all of our lives where naturally some of us speak to others more than others," he told Cosmopolitan. Recently, I've probably spoken to Liam 10 times as much as I spoke to the other lads.
Six months ago, that was Niall. However, Gigi did share photos and videos, along with Zayn, on Instagram from her recent birthday celebrations where a tiny baby bump may be visible after further introspection.
It's going to be a delight to see these lovebirds become parents for the first time, especially with Zayn. Directioners are aware of Malik's caring side to his One Direction bandmates when he was still a part of the boyband. Whether it be, being best friends with Louis and getting matching tattoos or having heart to heart chats with Harry Styles, treating Niall as his baby brother or being in touch with Liam, even after he quit 1D, Zayn's bond with One Direction has shown his loving, sensitive personality.
Here are four times Zayn Malik was there for his One Direction bandmates which prove he's going to be a caring father:. During an interview with Access Hollywood, the reporter referred to Harry Styles as a womanizer, leaving the singer shocked. But, Zayn Malik was quick to come to his friend's defense and put his arm around Harry's shoulders, warmly stating, "He's a nice guy. I know the real you. In the early days, Liam would constantly get ribbed by his bandmates with Zayn constantly coming to the rescue.
While they were signing albums one day, Harry Styles started messing roughly with Payne's curls and Malik pushed him away to protect his friend saying, "Stop it, Harry! You're hurting him!
From matching tattoos to getting in trouble together, their bond was thicker than ever! During a One Direction concert, as Louis and Liam Payne were indulging in their trademark water war, the former took a major tumble on stage with the latter looking on in shock before dousing him with more water. Zayn took it upon himself to defend his friend and snatched away the water bottle from Liam before hilariously pouring it on him.
Zayn Malik flipped the paparazzi off for their indulgent behaviour as Niall had tweeted, "I hate the paps!! Just got dragged to the floor by some idiot with a camera!
