Louis Tomlinson Held One Direction Together at Times, Niall Horan Says

Louis Tomlinson recently said that he felt forgettable during the early days of One Direction, but we know that he was actually a huge part of the group.

In fact, the 25-year-old singer’s former bandmate Niall Horan said that Louis was the glue that held the band together.

“He knows that none of us ever thought that or think that. He’s an unbelievable guy, a great singer and someone that if, I’d say, we would have lost the plot along the way if we hadn’t had Louis,” Niall told Nova 100 radio show (via Daily Mail). “He was a very, very, very, extremely vital member of One Direction. He’s a great man.”
