Fans of One Direction, who were ecstatic to learn of the band's prospective reunion at the BRIT Awards, were devastated to hear a huge announcement.
A few days ago, suspicions of a 1D reunion were put to rest as reports stated that the remaining members had turned down an invitation to pay respect to their late brother Liam Payne.
According to The Sun, BRITs approached Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Louis Tomlinson, and Niall Horan about making a special appearance at the award presentation to pay tribute to their late bandmate.
According to reports, the group members believe 'it would just be too much'. "They have grieved privately and do not feel the need to pay a large, showy tribute for the sake of it," the magazine stated.
According to Los40US, the lads may not be ready to completely relaunch the band following Liam's unexpected death, but they may appear for a surprise concert to honor the departed soul.
According to certain reports, a 1D reunion is still a possibility.
One Direction has been apart since 2016. The world has been anxiously awaiting a reunion. The old bandmates did reunite, albeit not in the way fans imagined.
