One Direction started their hiatus back in January 2016, and since then Niall Horan, Liam Payne, Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson and former member Zayn Malik, have had successful solo careers. However, every One Direction fan secretly hoped that the group, who were formed on The X Factor back in 2010, would reform - after all, a hiatus is only a temporary break right?
Well, while we haven't had any official word from the boys, it seems fans have noticed something unusual about the One Direction online shop, which is causing many to speculate that this might actually be the end of One Direction. It was earlier this week that a 1D fan account posted a photo of the One Direction shop saying, 'Sorry, this store is no longer available'. Noooo!
Take a look at One Direction through the years:
