One Direction, which comprises members, Louis Tomlinson, Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Zayn Malik and Niall Horan, was formed on The X Factor in 2010. And they released their debut album, Up All Night, in November 2011 in the UK and Ireland, and worldwide in 2012. Moreover, their debut album sold 4.5 million copies worldwide.
However, 1D member Louis Tomlinson recently slammed the first of the group’s studio offerings. The singer shared that twelve years ago, the band got formed, but the first album was not good. One Direction went on to release albums Take Me Home in 2012, Midnight Memories in 2013, Four in 2014 and Midnight in the A.M in 2015. Zayn left the group in 2015, later the rest of the band announced an extended hiatus.
Last week, Louis Tomlinson cleared all the misunderstandings about him and his former One Direction bandmates. The singer debunked all the bad blood rumours between the British singers. In a previous interview, Louis shared that he’s certain his ex-bandmate Liam Payne is just as proud as he is of their time in the boy band. The infight rumours first originated from a revealing interview Payne did in June that criticized Zayn Malik.

Tomlinson jokingly accused host Peter Helliar of ‘fishing’ after Helliar asked about a recent ‘bit of 1D beef’ that originated from a revealing interview Payne did in June that criticized Zayn Malik. “Oh, so the fishing’s begun already. Yeah, I see what you’re doing,” Tomlinson joked. Louis added, “I’m immensely proud, as I know Liam is. I’m immensely proud of those days, obviously. I mean, it was an incredible thing to do and especially at such a young age. Amazing memories, man, amazing.”
He also explained that he’s ‘more than happy’ to talk about his One Direction days in every interview he does, as it remains a source of pride. Liam Payne made headlines in June as he spoke in-depth about his days in 1D and his tumultuous relationship with Malik. Liam shared at that time, “There are many reasons why I dislike Zayn and there are many reasons why I’ll always, always be on his side. If I had had to go through what he went through with his growth and whatever else.”
