"Snow.....More Details"

ONE Direction fans are eager for the band to get back together... but will they?

Since the boys - Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson and Zayn Malik all went their separate ways, they've forged successful solo careers, but what have they been up to? And will they reunite?

Are One Direction getting back together?

The 1D boys are currently on a hiatus that began in January 2016, allowing all members to pursue other projects.

Zayn left the band in 2015, leaving Harry, Louis, Liam and Niall to hold the fort.

Despite the boys finding success on their own, their former boss, Simon Cowell, believes they will once again become a chart powerhouse and “be bigger than ever”. A source close to Simon said: “He so proud of Louis and all the group’s achievements over the last 18 months.

“For them all to launch solo careers – and be a group of superstars individually as well as in the band – makes him so proud.

“It also makes Simon more determined than ever that the hiatus was not the end of One Direction.

“Simon has always regarded the band as being on a break, rather than over, and although there are no confirmed plans at the moment for them to get together again, it is absolutely his ambition and belief that the guys will get be reunited.

“In Simon’s eyes, the best example for One Direction to follow has always been The Rolling Stones – with the guys doing their own successful solo projects and then getting back together regularly.

“This is now Simon’s ultimate dream for One Direction.”

What have the 1D members been doing?

Zayn was the first to forge a solo career, hitting No1 in the UK charts with Pillow Talk in January 2016.

Harry then reached No1 with Sign Of The Times in May 2017, and more recently, Liam’s Strip That Down went gold in the UK and Niall’s Slow Hands has proven a big hit, especially in the US.

Harry has also had box office success, starring in Christopher Nolan’s Dunkirk, and Liam has been busy making babies - he recently welcomed a son with Cheryl Cole.
