Let’s face it, the possibility of a One Direction reunion is an idea that every fan has had on their mind since the group called it quits in 2016. Rumors have circulated, of course, but it’s only gossip.

News broke that bandmates Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan , Liam Payne, and Harry Styles decided to “not renew their recording contract” after the fifth member, Zayn Malik, abruptly exited the band in 2015. “My life with One Direction has been more than I could ever have imagined. But, after five years, I feel like it is now the right time for me to leave the band. I’d like to apologize to the fans if I’ve let anyone down, but I have to do what feels right in my heart,” Malik said in a statement to the group’s official Facebook page. “I am leaving because I want to be a normal 22-year-old who is able to relax and have some private time out of the spotlight. I know I have four friends for life in Louis, Liam, Harry and Niall. I know they will continue to be the best band in the world.” But after Styles appeared on James Corden ’s final episode of The Late Late Show in April 2023, rumors began circulating of a possible 1D reunion.

Is One Direction reuniting?

Is One Direction reuniting? Nothing has been confirmed but Harry Styles participated in the very last Spill Your Guts or Eat Your Guts—a popular segment on The Late Late Show With James Corden that asks guests to reveal the answers to hot questions or eat something gross—and teased the possibility of a 1D reunion.

“Yes or no, will there be a One Direction reunion? Will it ever happen?” Styles said, reading the question in the episode that aired on April 27, 2023. “I fear that it’s not a yes or no question. I think I would never say never to that. If there was a time when we wanted to do it, I don’t see why we wouldn’t.”

James Corden, Harry Styles

After The Mirror reported that the boy band’s full lineup was rumored to make an appearance during Corden’s final episode of the show on April 27, the official Late Late Show Twitter account shut down any speculation. “Nobody loves the boys more than us… but this story just isn’t true,” the show’s official account tweeted. “What is true is we’ve got an absolutely brilliant 2-hour finale planned to celebrate 8 years of #LateLateShow at 10 pm on April 27th.”

Late Late Show executive producer Ben Winston went on to reveal that getting the group back together for the show was practically impossible. “I don’t think it was even logistically possible,” he told Metro.co.uk . “I don’t know the ins and outs of their diary. We got a message out early because we saw that bubbling online and a lot of stuff can be said online and it’s taken as fact. The team saw that and we’ve got such a beautiful finale planned, the last thing we wanted was for everyone to be disappointed by our finale.”

Speaking about Styles being one of the last guests, Winston added: “We knew that Harry was coming on at the time, so we didn’t want to say ‘Harry’s coming on’ and then suddenly those rumors go even further. We didn’t want to let anyone down and pretend that [reunion] was happening when it’s not.”

He continued: “James and I have been such massive fans of One Direction since the beginning, I did their music videos and produced their [concert] movie. So I’m a huge One Direction fan and I wouldn’t want to upset any One Direction fans that thought something was happening.” He concluded: “So rather than tease everybody and pretend it was happening to get better ratings, I was pleased we could set the record straight. Some of them still don’t believe us, but we’re really not.”

A year after One Direction split in 2016, Styles debuted as a solo artist with his first single, “Sign of the Times” from his debut self-titled album. Since then, Styles has released two more albums—2019’s  Fine Line  and 2022’s  Harry’s House  (both of which reached number one on the Billboard 200—as well as has won a Grammy for his 2019 single, “Watermelon Sugar.” In an interview with  NPR  in 2020, Styles opened up about his thoughts on fame and meeting his idols. “I think ultimately you meet [other famous people] and you’re kind of in awe of them, but at the same time you get to hang out with them on this human level, where you’re just talking and it’s really amazing,” he said.

“Those are the moments that kind of mean the most because it’s real. And when everything else about being in music goes away, that’s the stuff that I think you end up telling your grandkids. For example, with Stevie, my favorite moments about it aren’t usually the show, it’s the practicing. When we first played together, it was at the Troubadour — famously, where Elton John did his first U.S. show — and it was an amazing moment, but my favorite was soundchecking. It’s like four people in there and just us singing in the empty Troubadour. For me, that’s a moment that I’m going to hold on to.”

Members of One Direction Reportedly Just Recorded New Music Together

Excuse me???????

Recording artists Niall Horan, Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson of One Direction performs onstage during 102.7 KIIS FM’s Jingle Ball 2015 Presented by Capital One at STAPLES CENTER on December 4, 2015 in Los Angeles, California.

Hearts broke around the world when One Direction announced they were going on "hiatus" following their last tour as a band in 2015.

Since then, hopes for a reunion have been rife among fans (hi), hopes which were promptly slashed time after time—like when we thought we would finally get something for their 10-year anniversary in 2020, but all we got was a website full of memories from brighter times.

But now, it's looking like we might be able to hope once more, because a report has emerged that band members Niall Horan and Louis Tomlinson recently hopped into the studio with Liam Payne (he of "I used to be in 1D, now I'm free" fame).

Sources told The Sun that, while Payne was working on his second solo studio album in Los Angeles, his former bandmates came to hang out or jam or something, and ended up contributing vocals to one of the songs.

"Liam is great pals with Niall and Louis, so loved catching up with them while they were all in L.A.," an insider said.

"Being in the studio together felt natural, so they all jumped on a track.

"It was second nature to them singing together and felt like old times. They had a right laugh.

"Producers are hoping Liam includes it on his finished album, fans will love it."

"Love" is putting it mildly, if you ask me.

News of Payne's upcoming album comes amid what sounds like a happier season for the singer, who recently revealed that he is "over 100 days" sober.

"I feel amazing. I feel really, really good," he told iFL TV . "The support from the fans and everything has been really, really good, so I'm super happy."

Of course, those with a soft spot for former band members Harry Styles and Zayn Malik will be disappointed to hear that they were not included in the mini reunion, but here's hoping all five boys are thriving on whichever path they choose.

"Liam is great pals with Niall and Louis, so loved catching up with them while they were all in LA. Being in the studio together felt natural, so they all jumped on a track," an insider told the UK-based outlet of the trio's alleged reunion. "It was second nature to them singing together and felt like old times. They had a right laugh."

The anonymous source also adds, "Producers are hoping Liam includes it on his finished album, fans will love it."

Reps for the "Night Changes" hitmakers have yet to confirm whether the recording studio reunion is true. The report comes after the band was rumored to reunite on the final episode of James Corden's Late Late Show . "Nobody loves the boys more than us … but this story just isn’t true," the show's official Twitter account shared, debunking the rumor.

There could be a chance that 1D is in fact whipping up some new material — especially since Niall admitted he sends his unreleased solo music to his former bandmates for feedback in Esquire 's "Explain This" YouTube series . The "Heaven" singer is set to release his third solo album, The Show , in June 2023.

"This time I sent it to Louis [Tomlinson], and he gave me his honest opinion on it, which is always handy," Niall told the publication. "We've released enough songs over the years, so we know what's decent and what’s not. All the 1D boys and artists alike, I'll always try and send it around and get everybody's opinion."

Here's to hoping we see the boys bring their magic together sometime soon!

One Direction reunion: All of the signs from the boys so far 👀

We'd love to see the 1D gang back together!

It's been more than 12 years since One Direction formed on The X Factor , turning Harry Styles , Liam Payne , Niall Horan , Louis Tomlinson and former member Zayn Malik into overnight stars. Following Zayn leaving the band in 2015, the remaining members started their hiatus in 2016 - and fans have been calling out for a reunion ever since!

Although fans were hoping for something big to celebrate a decade since the group formed, their 10th anniversary came and went without a reunion in June 2020, however that hasn't dampened our spirits. Join us as we take a look through all of the clues we've had so far pointing towards a potential One Direction reunion...

Has Harry teased a One Direction reunion?

In March 2023, Harry shared an Instagram Story of himself wearing a One Direction T-shirt in a gym. The singer quickly deleted the photo, but that didn't stop fans sharing it widely on social media and speculating that a reunion could be about to happen.

He later told fans at his gig in Auckland: "I guess some of us have secrets! Maybe, maybe like some people, you chose to keep it to yourself and maybe one day, you'll like accidentally post it to your Instagram followers."

What's Liam Payne said about a reunion?

In April 2023, it was reported that Liam was 'desperate' for the One Direction boys to reunite ! Speaking to OK! , a source revealed that following Liam's reunion with Louis at the premiere for his documentary All Of Those Voices, he would love to relaunch his career with a One Direction reunion tour!

They said: "Liam is desperate to get back on the road with the boys. His solo career hasn’t remained as successful as he hoped it would, and work has become stagnant for him.

"In contrast, he can see how well Harry (Styles) is doing and he’d love that level of stardom for himself."

What has Niall Horan said about a reunion?

Niall spoke to Hits Radio in February and when asked about a reunion he said that his answer hadn't changed in about five years. He said: "I don't have any other answer. I've been giving the same answer for about five years." So sadly we might have to wait a bit longer.

Fans were also convinced that Niall and Harry might have had something up their sleeve prior to the release of Niall's third solo album 'The Show' , with many thinking that Harry was going to feature on one (or more) of the tracks. Sadly, this didn't prove to be true, but the evidence did look pretty convincing! Check out all the clues that fans spotted about a Niall and Harry collab !

Is Zayn Malik up for a One Direction reunion?

Although Zayn hasn't commented on a One Direction reunion, in 2022 he shared a couple of versions of some old One Direction songs. In August 2022 Zayn shared an uncaptioned, 30-second video of 'Night Changes' , which got fans very excited.

This followed a video that he shared in June 2022 of himself singing 'You and I'.

Will One Direction reunite on The Late Late Show?

Rumours that the band were set to reunite on James Corden's final episode of The Late Late Show have been circulating, causing excitement among fans. However, the talk show responded to the rumours on Twitter and confirmed that the boys won't be reuniting for the finale.

Referencing a news story about a potential One Direction reunion, a tweet from The Late Late Show's official Twitter account read: 'Nobody loves the boys more than us...but this story just isn't true. What's true is we've got an absolutely brilliant 2 hour finale planned to celebrate 8 years of #LateLateShow at 10pm on April 27th.'

Take a look at the One Direction reunion rumours:

Harry styles talks about a zoom reunion.

In April 2020, as the nation were in lockdown due to the Coronavirus, Harry spoke to SiriusXM Hits 1, jokingly admitting he didn't expect the 1D reunion to be over a Zoom call. He said, "I don't know if a Zoom call is the reunion that we had in mind."

Liam Payne send fans into meltdown

Just days later, Liam Payne sent Directioners into complete meltdown when he revealed a number of emails had been forwarded, admitting it was great for the boys to 'connect' again. Liam said, "We've got a 10-year anniversary coming up so we've all been speaking together a lot over the last few weeks, which has been really nice."

#OneDirectionReunion trends on Twitter

Not long after Liam's interview, eagle-eyed fans noticed Harry, Louis, Liam and Niall had all followed former member Zayn Malik on Twitter, resulting in #OneDirectionReunion to start trending. However, after further inspection, fans were quick to point out that they'd followed Zayn for a while, making it a bit of a false alarm!

Could we be getting new One Direction music?

Also in April, American showbiz site Page Six reported that One Direction could release new music for their 10th anniversary in July 2020, as well as a TV special!

Niall sends fans wild on Instagram Live

During an Instagram Live, Niall teased Directioners by touching his hair when a fan asked him to if the reunion rumours were true. Hmm.

Liam Payne talks about a reunion with James Corden

Liam chatted with The Late Late Show host James Corden in April, where he confessed he'd been in recent contact with both Louis Tomlinson and Niall Horan! He told James he'd enjoyed a 'beautiful' FaceTime with Niall. Aww!

Louis Tomlinson 'tells off' Liam Payne for revealing too much

After Liam got a little excited and started to dish out too much information, the singer revealed during an Instagram Live with Alesso that Louis had 'told him off' for revealing the plans.

Liam Payne hints Zayn Malik is not involved

During the same online chat with Alesso, Liam also seemed to hint that former member Zayn Malik would not be involved in the apparent 2020 reunion, asking Alesso if he would 'join the band' by 'filling in for Zayn'.

Niall Horan shuts down reunion rumours

With July getting closer, Niall Horan broke the hearts of 1D fans across the world in May when he seemingly shut down all talk of a 2020 reunion. Speaking to his friend Jamie Redknapp on Redknapp's Home Fixture, Niall said, "There was a bit of talk about it because in July it's ten years since the band got together, so everyone was waiting to see if anything was going to happen. 'We've been chatting about it, little bits and pieces that we can do, but nothing in terms of getting the band back together, so for now, no."

10th anniversary plans

Despite many holding out for an actual reunion, 1D will be launching a special website called '10 Years of One Direction', which will go active on Thursday 23rd July, the official date of their anniversary. The website will go through the band's amazing career timelines, from meeting on The X Factor, to going their separate ways as solo artists.

Maybe, maybe like some people, you chose to keep it to yourself and maybe one day, you'll like accidentally post it to your Instagram followers."

Niall Horan Skirts One Direction Reunion Rumors — but Reveals the Band Is Still Close

LOS ANGELES, CA - NOVEMBER 23:  Musicians Liam Payne, Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik and Harry Styles of One Direction arrive at the 2014 American Music Awards at Nokia Theatre L.A. Live on November 23, 2014 in Los Angeles, California.  (Photo b

Directioners, it's definitely not the time to give up hope for a One Direction renaissance. Ever since One Direction split in 2016, rumors have been circulating on pretty much a monthly basis about whether Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan, and Zayn Malik will ever reunite. They've been dispelled time and time again, but according to Horan, although a musical reunion may not be on the way, the band is very much still in contact.

In a May 25 interview with E! News , Horan shared that the former bandmates still regularly correspond. "We've had three or four group chats," he said, sharing that there's now a new, particularly active one. "Some of them have been more quiet than others. This new one is definitely louder than most, and it's been great," he said. "I'm sure if I had a look at my phone in a few minutes I'd see some messages." Still, when asked if any One Direction bandmates would appear on his forthcoming album, "The Show," he had a clear response. "No," he said. "Now that's a straight and easy answer."

Earlier in May, during an interview at a Wembley Arena boxing match on May 13 , Horan's fellow One Directioner Tomlinson also discussed the band's new chat. "I don't know," he said when asked if he thought the group would reunite at any point, "but we've just made a new group chat. That's something."

In April, though, another One Direction member did seem to suggest that a One Direction collaboration or reunion could be on the horizon. Appearing on the last ever "The Late Late Show With James Corden" on April 27, Styles sat on the sofa with his longtime friend, Corden, and Will Ferrell. The three played a final game of "Spill Your Guts," in which the celebrities get asked an awkward question and have to decide to answer or face a forfeit of eating something pretty disgusting. Styles was asked: "Yes or no, will there be a One Direction reunion? Will it ever happen?" As the crowd screamed, Styles answered: "I would never say never to that. I think if there was a time when we all felt that was what we want to do, then I don't see why we wouldn't." Now, we don't know about you, but that sounds like a (sort of) confirmation, right? Even Corden said: "I'm taking that as a yes!"

Social media had been alight with gossip that the boyband would all be appearing on "The Late Late Show"'s last episode together. They have all appeared on the "Carpool Karaoke" segment previously, and played tattoo roulette, which ended with Styles getting the show's logo inked on his arm. The four remaining members have all appeared on the show individually, too, but the TV reunion was swiftly denied in the run-up to the last show.

It was three years ago when the rumor mill last began spinning out of control as fans believed that One Direction would reunite for their 10-year anniversary in 2020. A decade had gone by since the band was formed on "The X Factor," and Payne even got fans riled up by telling The Sun : "We've got a 10-year anniversary coming up, so we've all been speaking together a lot over the last few weeks which has been really nice," he said. "To hear a lot of people's voices and seeing old content and different things that we haven't seen for a long time or never seen before, it's very interesting. At the moment I'm not sure what I'm allowed to say." Yet sadly, perhaps due to the COVID-19 pandemic, nothing came to fruition.

While the boys are no stranger to the reunion gossip, we have to admit there are clues that are stacking up. The members have all been spotted supporting each other individually, with Payne most recently attending the premiere of Tomlinson's "All of Those Voices" film . Styles thanked his former bandmates as he collected his win at the 2023 Brits , and Horan and Payne congratulated him on his recent win at the Grammys . Styles added fuel to the fire when he posted a photo of him wearing a One Direction tshirt in the gym in March before quickly deleting it. And in August 2022, Malik took to Instagram to offer fans an acoustic snippet of "Night Changes."

While there is no concrete evidence of a One Direction reunion in the works currently, it can't be denied that the signs are adding up. And with Styles confirming he would be on board, we'll be keeping an eye out for the "Little Things" pointing towards the big reunion moment.

One Direction members’ sisters call for reunion, sparking hope among fans

The sisters of two One Direction members have called for the band to reunite, igniting hope in the Directioner fandom.

Fans have longed to see Harry, Niall, Louis, Liam, and Zayn back on stage together since the band broke up in 2016, following Zayn ’s exit in 2015.

In 2017, Harry Styles explained why they broke up, telling Rolling Stone: “I didn’t want to exhaust our fan base.

“If you’re shortsighted, you can think, ‘Let’s just keep touring,’ but we all thought too much of the group than to let that happen. You realise you’re exhausted and you don’t want to drain people’s belief in you.”

The boyband members have since been busy pursuing solo careers, with Styles currently touring the world and Niall Horan gearing up to release a new album in June.

Liam Payne recently revealed he’s recording a new album, while Louis Tomlinson will embark on a world tour next week.

Now, the band’s family members have sparked hope that a reunion could be on the way.

Louis Tomlinson ’s sister, Lottie Tomlinson, and Liam Payne ’s sister, Ruth Gibbons, both shared the same meme of a man holding a sign that reads “I want a One Direction reunion,” as did the band’s former hairstylist, Lou Teasdale.

Fans were thrilled to see the sisters talk about the band, with many hoping their posts were a sign of things to come.

Styles further stirred One Direction reunion rumours this week, when he performed the band’s song Stockholm Syndrome at his solo show in Denmark.

He also teased fans by beginning to sing Best Song Ever, before actually singing another 1D hit, What Makes You Beautiful.

Fans are further convinced that a reunion could be on the cards due to Payne revealing that the band has a new group chat.

Payne was being interviewed by Delicious TV’s Derek Chisora ringside at KSI and Joe Fournier’s fight when he dropped the bombshell.

When asked “when are we going to see the band back together?" Payne responded: "I don’t know, but we just started a new group chat, so that’s something."

Although they may be separate events, pieced together they’re enough to convince Directioners that they’re getting a One Direction tour in the near future. Watch this space.

By Capital FM

Harry Styles sent the internet into a tailspin when he revealed he'd be open to a One Direction reunion.

Listen to this article

Harry Styles appeared as one of the last-ever guests on The Late Late Show with James Corden , and he dropped some major One Direction intel!

Rumours have long been swirling that the 'As It Was' singer, Niall Horan , Liam Payne , Louis Tomlinson and Zayn Malik could be reuniting.

One Direction has been on hiatus since 2016; one year after Zayn left the band, and seven years later their fans are still wondering when the boys will get back together.

During the final episode of The Late Late Show , Harry read out a question that cut straight to the chase: "Yes or no, will there be a One Direction reunion?"

Harry addressed the reunion rumours

Understandably, the live studio audience went wild as Harry paused to give his highly-anticipated answer.

"I think I would never say never to that," he said during the 'Spill Your Guts or Eat Your Guts' segment of the show.

Styles continued: "If there was a time when we wanted to do it, I don’t see why we wouldn’t.”

The crowd erupted into cheers and James Corden exclaimed: "I'm taking that as a yes!"

The musician didn't divulge any more details about a potential 1D get-together but his answer has given Directioners hope that they will see all members reunited at some point.

Harry Styles spoke about the band to James Corden

This isn't the first time Harry has spoken out about a potential homecoming for the band, during an appearance on the Spout Podcast he echoed a similar sentiment.

“I’d love for there to be a time where it felt like something we all wanted to do,” he explained, "I very much enjoyed [the albums] and I think we all went through something really special together."

He gave an ambiguous response that led fans to believe that a reunion won't be held in the immediate future, Harry said: "There’s a lot of love there. So, yeah, I think if there’s a moment for us to do it the right way, I think it would be great.”

People Keep Speculating About A One Direction Reunion, So Here's Exactly What Each Member Has Said About A Comeback

"This new [groupchat] is definitely louder than most, and it's been great. I'm sure if I had a look at my phone in a few minutes I'd see some messages..."

Alana Valko

BuzzFeed Staff

As a former One Direction stan, I practically jump out of my seat anytime rumors crop up about the band coming together again. But they pop up A LOT, and at this point, it's almost cruel how often interviewers ask about a reunion.

But in recent months, talks of a reunion have looked slightly more promising. i'm not saying it's happening anytime soon, but as harry styles said, "never say never." so here’s what each member of 1d has recently said about the possibility of reuniting:, when asked about a one direction reunion on the last episode of the late late show with james corden back in april, harry said, "i would never say never to that...if there was a time when we all felt that was what we wanted to do, then i don't see why we wouldn't," which sparked a roaring applause from the crowd..

After Harry dropped this teensy bit of hope, Niall Horan , in an interview with Entertainment Tonight Canada , said "there hasn't been a conversation" yet, but "I'm sure if there ever is one, you'll know about it." He added, "I agree with Harry. Same thing as he said."

And in May after both these interviews, when asked when the band will get back together at a boxing match in Wembley Arena, Liam Payne said, "I don't know, but we just started a new group chat, so..."

Active group chats are a good sign, but in terms of a reunion, Niall set the record straight in an interview last week with Zane Lowe for Apple Music 1 to promote his new album. He said, "It’s just like the conversation hasn’t happened. It’s a great legacy to have. No, I don’t think it sucks the air out the room. It’s more, the answer’s still the same."

Niall Horan sits down with Zane Lowe

"We speak regularly, but that conversation hasn’t happened. God knows whether it ends up being. It could be like the Friends reunion, it could be a whole tour. God knows what it is, but no, it hasn’t been spoken about.”

Louis Tomlinson has commented on a reunion a few times — most recently, he told The Times in February 2023 that “getting back together at some point is hard to imagine right now, but I’d be surprised if we lived out our lives and didn’t have a moment where we had a reunion...I’d be up for that.”

Louis Tomlinson in an interview with "Hits 1" at the SiriusXM Studios in September 2022

And in an interview with The Telegraph  in November 2022, he said, "I don’t see anything happening for at least another 10 years , but you never know. It looks pretty jumbled. But I think there is a world where it all kind of fits together.”

As for Zayn, he's been reluctant to discuss One Direction since he left the band early in March 2015 (One Direction went on an indefinite hiatus later that year).

Zayn performing in 2016

When he has discussed the band, he's not done so very positively. In 2015, he told Fader the group's music was "generic as f—k" and that management controlled a lot of the band's image, leaving them with little creative control. And in an interview with Beats 1 back in 2016, Zayn said he "wanted to go from, like, the first year" and that he "never really wanted to be there, like, in the band."

Things might be looking up, though. In August of 2022, Zayn posted a 30-second clip of him singing the band's song "Night Changes," which was one of the few times he acknowledged his former band positively since the split.

The video now has over 34 million views, and over 282K comments — many of which include fans begging for a reunion. 

Looks like we'll still have to wait patiently for a comeback, but I'm loving that the bandmates are chatting and not saying no to a reunion. In the meantime, I'll keep supporting their solo careers and streaming Niall's new album, The Show .

When do you think one direction will reunite publicly would you attend a reunion tour let me know in the comments below, share this article.

NEWS... BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT

One Direction reunion would need ‘a big discussion but it’s hard to see all five of them coming back’

author image

Share this with

Louis Tomlinson, Liam Payne, Harry Styles, Zayn Malik and Niall Horan of One Direction

A One Direction reunion will need ‘a big discussion’ but doesn’t seem likely with all five members of the boyband returning, it’s been said.

Harry Styles , Louis Tomlinson , Liam Payne, Niall Horan and Zayn Malik rose to fame on the 2010 series of The X Factor.

Despite coming in third place behind winner Matt Cardle and runner-up Rebecca Ferguson , they went on to become one of the biggest boybands in the world.

In 2015, our hearts broke when Zayn announced he was leaving the band, and as if things couldn’t get any worse, One Direction fans’ worlds shattered when the remaining four members called it quits just months later.

Since then, they’ve gone on to carve out successful music careers, filled stadiums, had children, and sold millions of records individually.

But there’s still hope there could be a comeback, and following the likes of N-Dubz or S Club 7 , One Direction could reunite one day.

It won’t be easy though, according to their former vocal coach Ali Tennant.

Louis Tomlinson, Liam Payne, Harry Styles, Zayn Malik and Niall Horan of One Direction

The singer and songwriter worked with them as well as singers including Cher Lloyd on The X Factor, telling Metro.co.uk: ‘The truth is, they have blown up individually.

‘You expected it to a certain degree but in the history of boybands, normally you’d get one that’s astronomical and the rest are doing other things and so on.

‘But, we can obviously see Harry is the leader of the pack, but Niall is still doing well, people are waiting for Liam to come back out, Louis is still doing his thing, they’re all doing their thing.’

Talking about a potential reunion, he went on: ‘I think it’s going to be a big discussion for them to come back.

‘It’s one of those things, they did so well lucratively, it’s not like they need to come back for the money. They’d want to come back for the fans and love for each other.’

Ali then added: ‘Zayn is kind of excluded from the love for some reason, so I don’t know if it will ever fully happen.

Zayn Malik

Sorry, this video isn't available any more.

Harry Styles

‘You might see a one-off tour with the four of them, but I can’t see the five of them coming back – I can’t see that, and Zayn is now getting himself back together and putting his own thing together now.

‘I can’t see it – and can you imagine being Harry, being asked whether he wants to do a One Direction tour again after he’s just a stadium worldwide tour – I can’t imagine that!’

Ali, who continues to work with younger artists including the likes of 22-year-old Kurdish Idol singer Bana Shirwan, went on to explain it’s no surprise when artists who found fame at such a young age return to the spotlight after a career break.

He said: ‘It started a long time ago with the likes of Charlotte Church. Everyone has a time away from the industry, even though they might still be present on TV, because a lot of acts pull back from everything, come off social media, like Ed Sheeran.

‘I think it’s super important to take stock of life, especially when you’ve been thrown into it at such a young age, you need that time to grow, you really do.

‘I think it’s a duty of care for people that work with young acts to really listen and to consider their mental health, I think it’s super important.’

Louis Tomlinson, Liam Payne, Harry Styles, Zayn Malik and Niall Horan of One Direction

After working on The X Factor, Ali went on to land a role as a vocal coach on The Voice, where he’s been working for 11 years, becoming one of their longest-standing coaches.

He told us: ‘Going from The X Factor to The Voice, The X Factor was an incredible machine, there’s no doubting that. But I think the difference is there’s a little more care to attention on The Voice, hence why I’ve been there so long.

‘The turnaround is much slower on The Voice and you can give more love and it’s a place for really cultivating artists a little bit more, and I think artists are attracted to that.

‘I found myself a bit more comfortable on The Voice, not that things were bad on The X Factor because I was on one of the most successful seasons.’

Talking about One Direction being formed that year, he went on: ‘With One Direction, they came in as solo acts, had the disappointment of all being turned away, Liam for instance, it was his second time.

‘And he got turned away again, but this idea of the boyband came up and some of them were halfway home after being disappointed and turned down, some of them were angry, but they got that lifeline and having them in a room the next day, practicing the song they did at judges’ houses, which was Natalie Imbruglia’s Torn, they had to pull themselves together.

‘I had to make sure they were okay to be honest, these shows always have a psychologist at hand to make everybody’s cool, there’s a duty of care.

‘But I think young stars need a bit of space to mature, evolve, metamorphosis into adults and grow artistically – it’s healthy.’

Is One Direction Having a Reunion In 2023?

Since then, some strange coincidences have occurred that have kept directioners on their toes. Harry, for instance, has performed not one, but two One Direction songs during the European leg of his world tour in May 2023, including “Stockholm Syndrome” and “Best Song Ever.”

On top of that, Liam revealed that the One Direction boys have created a “new” group chat in an interview with Delicious TV in May 2023.

Could these just be coincidences or are the boys planning something? We’re crossing our fingers for the latter!

What Have the Members Said About a One Direction Reunion?

“When you look at it on paper, it’s like, ‘How the f–k’s it all gonna fit back together?’ We’re all making very different music, doing our own thing, all busy all the time,” Louis said of 1D reunion during a November 2022 interview with  The Telegraph .  “So, I don’t see anything happening for at least another 10 years, but you never know. It looks pretty jumbled. But I think there is a world where it all kind of fits together.”

For Harry’s part, he said the “thought” of a reunion would be “really nice” during an interview with  the “Spout” podcast  in June 2022.

“I’d love for there to be a time where it felt like something we all wanted to do. I very much enjoyed those albums that you mentioned,” he said. “I think we all went through something really special together and there’s a lot of love there. So, yeah, I think if there’s a moment for us to do it the right way, I think it’d be great.”
