LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Liam Payne is excited and enjoying his ‘sober’ life! The 'One Direction' alum shared that he had been without alcohol for over three months in a recent interview. "I'm sober now over 100 days," Payne told iFL TV after an interviewer complimented his appearance. "I feel amazing. I feel really, really good, and the support from the fans and everything has been really, really good, so I'm super happy."
The ‘Fireproof’ singer added that he struggled with the fame and spotlight and turned to alcohol quite often. "It's almost like putting the Disney costume on before you step up on stage and underneath the Disney costume I was pissed quite a lot of the time because there was no other way to get your head around what was going on," shared Payne with Men's Health Australia in 2019. "I mean, it was fun. We had an absolute blast, but there were certain parts of it where it just got a little bit toxic." The band members including Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, and Louis Tomlinson, all went solo while pursuing their career in 2015, reports People.
