However, Simon did go on to say the split would not be as a result of Harry Styles' rumoured solo career. Speaking about Harry, Simon explained: "I don't think that is going to happen for a while. Eventually I am sure they all will."

Many are blaming pressure from up-and-coming boybands such as 5 Seconds of Summer, The Vamps and Rixton as the reason for recent 1D split rumours.
