One Direction was one of the most popular bands of the 2010s, producing multiple top-10 hits and five full-length albums. They sold out tours in stadiums and arenas around the globe.
The band was formed in 2010 on the UK version of “The X Factor” and is comprised of five guys who auditioned as solo artists: Liam Payne, Zayn Malik, Niall Horan, Harry Styles, and Louis Tomlinson.
After years of reaching milestones and breaking records, the band started to slow down. In early 2015, it was announced on Facebook that Zayn Malik would be leaving the band. The four remaining members released a final album and announced an extended hiatus in August 2015.
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. On October 16, 2024, Payne died at the age of 31.
Here’s everything members of One Direction have said about the band and each other since announcing their hiatus:
