LOUIS TOMLINSON REVEALS WHY ZAYN MALIK LEFT ONE DIRECTION 

X Factor 2015: Everything you need to know about...

​Louis Tomlinson\'s already admitted he was \'hit the hardest\' of all the One Direction lads when Zayn Malik quit the band back in March, and now he\'s revealed the

reason he decided to go solo. Oh, and it\'s not \'cos of a \'massive divide\' or any of that malarky. Obviously.

Yup - while there was shitloads of speculation as to why el Maliko made the decision to live life as a \'normal 22-year-old\' at the time, Tommo\'s admitted he simply \'fell out of love with the music.\' That \'You & I\' high note just wasn\'t doin\' it for him any more *shrugs*.

Chatting about Zayn\'s departure to Kyle and Jackie O off of the radio over in Australia, Louis said: "I think it\'s like anything, it\'s a difficult time at first in any job when you lose part of your crew but in reality it ended up being a positive for us because we knew the four of us really wanted to make it work and I think we\'re showing that.​

"​We carried on making the record and business as usual. He had his own reasons; the bottom line is he did fall out of love with the music, which is absolutely fine."

Louis Tomlinson doesn\'t really get why fans throw...

Caroline Flack and Niall Horan spotted \'flirting\'?

Fair play. Lines about \'bad bitches\' being the only thing on his mind probably wouldn\'t have really fit the general direction of Made in the A.M. from what we\'ve heard so far tbh.

This all comes after Luigi admitted he was \'hit the hardest\' when Zayn threw the towel in, telling The Sunday Times Style magazine: "

​Everything had always been good and then something bad happens and you have to make decisions, you have to work out what you want and it makes you really know what you want. We all knew we wanted this."

What d\'ya make of that, then? Give us a tweet over @sugarscape or drop a comment in the box below. That\'d be lovely. CHEERS.
