So many groups including Westlife, Destiny’s
Child, NSYNC, have all split in the past, so this is not much of a surprise…at
least not to me…*shrugs*
Few
months after announcing they needed a break, One Direction’s Louis Tomlinson,
Harry Styles, Niall Horan and Liam Payne will split, a source close to the British
boy band reveals in the new issue of Us Weekly.
This comes after Horan, 22, denied rumors
of a split in November. “We’re not breaking up,” he told Entertainment
Tonight. "We're literally taking time out to see our friends and see
our family, and reflect on what we've done over the last few years."
The foursome — Zayn Malik exited
the group in March 2015 — decided “not to renew their recording contract”
after wrapping their tour in October, says the close source. “The 1D thing just
ran its course. They’ll remain friends, but they are exhausted and want solo
careers.”
Not necessarily in front of a mic, though.
“Liam is really interested in songwriting and production,” says a second
insider. And Styles, 21, is looking toward the big screen. Adds the first
source, “Harry is launching a career in acting and singing.”
As for Tomlinson, 24, he’s going to be busy
as a first-time dad. As Us Weekly confirmed in July, the pop star
is expecting a baby with stylist friend Briana Jungwirth.
The boy band, who got their start on the
U.K.’s The X Factor in 2010, will still release a video for
another song on their Made in the A.M. album.
