The popular band One Direction appears to be coming back together to enthrall fans after being on hiatus since 2015, according to a recent update that the team has launched a new group WhatsApp chat. It's thought that Musicians Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Louis Tomlinson, Liam Payne, and Harry Styles are all back in touch because of the group chat.
The number-one band, which Simon Cowell initially discovered on 'X Factor', put out five albums over the course of many years. Following Liam's revelation that the boys are once again talking to one another, fans have begun to believe that brand-new music from the band may be on the way. "I don't know — but we just started a new group chat, so that is something," Liam recently said to The Sun on Sunday, May 21.

Is One Direction really reuniting?
One Direction has launched a new group WhatsApp chat, raising speculations that they would rejoin. When asked if that suggested that the band would return soon, Liam Payne appeared to shrug and decline to answer, as cited by The Sun. The fact that Niall and Louis have reportedly been working with Liam on his new album is yet another indication that the band is about to reform. They joined Liam as he continued to record his second solo album in a studio in Los Angeles. A source claims that Louis and Niall recorded cameo vocals for one of Liam's next album singles. An insider stated, "Liam is great pals with Niall and Louis, so loved catching up with them while they were all in LA. Being in the studio together felt natural, so they all jumped on a track. The source added, "It was second nature to them singing together and felt like old times. They had a right laugh. Producers are hoping Liam includes it on his finished album, fans will love it."
What did Liam Payne say?
It was said last month that Liam in particular is apparently yearning for a One Direction reunion to revive his professional life. According to Ok! Magazine, the pop artist had been attempting to get in touch with his old bandmates. It follows Liam's recent reunion with Louis at the London premiere of his documentary 'All Of Those Voices'. A source claimed, "Liam is desperate to get back on the road with the boys. His solo career hasn't remained as successful as he hoped it would, and work has become stagnant for him." The insider added, "In contrast, he can see how well Harry is doing and he'd love that level of stardom for himself. "He knows he's somewhat fallen out of favor with the public, and believes the only way he'll be able to win back his fans is with a One Direction reunion."
