One Direction has lost Zayn Malik. And, the remaining band members are sure sad because of Malik's sudden departure. People reported that in a recent interview with The Sun, One Direction member Liam Payne let readers in on the experiences that the 4 singers have been going through without Malik:
"It's been a tough few weeks, probably the toughest since the band was formed five years ago,"
"We're gutted that Zayn chose to leave, but now after a few performances as a four piece, we're feeling confident and are determined to carry on stronger than ever."
On March 25, Malik announced that he was quitting One Direction via the band's official Facebook page. Malik quit the successful record breaking boy band of the century because of stress, as cited in Billboard.com. The 22-year old singer is allegedly hard at work on a new solo music with producer, Naughty Boy.

"We're looking forward to seeing all our fans on the tour this year,"
"All we want to do is make them proud and return their faith in us with a brilliant tour and an amazing new album."

Louis Tomlinson gave the band's word to fans about continuing on to make good music, saying:
"All four of us are 100 percent committed to staying in One Direction and we want to thank the fans for being so incredible during this time."
