With all the boys of 1D going off in their various directions (see what we did there?), be it into solo careers, acting careers, or, reportedly, having babies, it seems that the group may never be whole again.

But one member of the world’s most popular boy band is determined to believe the band members will reunite.

The group announced a hiatus after the release of their fifth album last year, and many believed that this was the end of The Story of Their Life.

But Niall has told the Sunday People: ‘We will be back. We would be silly not to ... ridiculous.’

But with them getting older, and each doing pretty well solo, nothing is 100%. Even if Niall says so.

Whatever happens, given that recent icy reunion between him and Zayn Malik, we’re guessing Niall is referring to four of the band members, rather than all five, reuniting.
