One Direction Reunion 'In Doubt', Due To Harry Styles And Louis Tomlinson 'Rift'

Anyone looking forward to One Direction’s “year off” coming to an end could be in for a long wait, with reports suggesting the lads are in no rush to reunite.

In fact, the Daily Star has claimed that Harry Styles isn’t even “on speaking terms” with his former bandmate, Louis Tomlinson, casting doubt over a reunion any time in the near future.

An insider tells the newspaper: “One Direction are not coming together in a year or even two.

“The fans have hoped that the group would honour their announcement of returning within 12 months. But that is a long way off and the boys are not even on track to mention a comeback. All four are loving their own solo freedom.

“To make matters worse, Louis and Harry are not even speaking as tensions run high between them.

“They weren’t talking at the end of the group and things have not eased. It may be a long time before that relationship gets better.”

Since the group went on what was described at the time as a “hiatus”, both Louis and Niall Horan have ventured into different types of management, while Liam Payne has rarely been away from the headlines thanks to his relationship with Cheryl Fernandez-Versini.

Harry is also reportedly gearing up to break out as a solo star, having also landed a role in Christopher Nolan’s latest film.

The source adds: “The project will take at least three years for Harry, and the feeling is that 1D is very much a thing of the past.”

Zayn Malik, who quit One Direction last year, has enjoyed success as a solo star, with a number one album and single under his belt, as well as an upcoming appearance at the Capital Summertime Ball, which will mark his debut UK solo performance.
