a few news sources reporting this


Zayn Malik (http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/celebrities/zayn-malik/) has left One Direction.

The singer departed the group's On The Road Again world tour last week after being signed off for stress (http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/news/a636526/zayn-malik-leaves-one-direction-world-tour-due-to-stress.html), but has now made the decision to leave the band permanently.

"My life with One Direction has been more than I could ever have imagined," Malik said in a statement.

"But, after five years, I feel like it is now the right time for me to leave the band. I'd like to apologise to the fans if I've let anyone down, but I have to do what feels right."

In a joint statement, the remaining members of One Direction said: "We're really sad to see Zayn go, but we totally respect his decision and send him all our love for the future.

"The past five years have been beyond amazing, we've gone through so much together, so we will always be friends. The four of us will now continue.

"We're looking forward to recording the new album and seeing all the fans on the next stage of the world tour."

One Direction's label boss Simon Cowell added: "I would like to say thank you to Zayn for everything he has done for One Direction.

"Since I first met Zayn in 2010, I have grown very, very fond - and immensely proud - of him. I have seen him grow in confidence and I am truly sorry to see him leave.

"As for One Direction, fans can rest assured that ‎Niall, Liam, Harry and Louis are hugely excited about the future of the band."

One Direction will continue their On The Road Again world tour in Jakarta, Indonesia tonight (March 25), before travelling to South Africa this weekend.

devastating..

[Red]

NO :'( :( :'(
I don't want it to be real

[Futz]

hopefully he's stockpiled enough money

[Alkaz]

No ******* way! He was the best in 1D as well :'[

[j0rd]

inb4 Clarkson becomes 5th member of 1D and Zayn becomes Top Gear host

[lemons]

always thought liam would be the first to leave 1d

oh well zayn is loaded

[-:Undertaker:-]

Noooooooooooo what.

The beginning of the end if you ask me.

[Chris]

Noooooooooooo what.

The beginning of the end if you ask me.

I agree to be honest. Not surprised he's left though, he has been off multiple times due to issues.

[Lewis]

lmao here comes a #selfharmforzayn trend from some of the unstable fans they have

i've never actually even heard of him to be honest, don't really know any of the names in one direction

[FlyingJesus]

Only attractive one in the group, now it's just Potato, Pigface, Who?, and GotNoStyles

[Absently]

it's not surprising in all honesty, he's said a few times he doesn't enjoy the fame. i'm sure he's minted though so life will be pretty good! it'll be weird seeing them as 4 though..

Erm Louis and Niall are fit and Liam is good looking too. And Harry was.

But yes Zayn is gorgeous. PERSIAN PRINCE.

It's so sad to see Zayne go, but it's understandable. For some time now it looked like he wasn't enjoying himself at certain points - he needed to focus on his life and what he wants.

I have a feeling it'll be hard for the rest of the boys though. Each of the guys have a unique voice and personality that blends into their music and group. They've also been through a lot together, but not just as a band - friends too!

And boyfriends (Louis and Harry).

[Kardan]

Kind of disappointing that they haven't split up all together, guess I'll have to keep waiting to see the reaction to that. I'm guessing it will be worse than when Take That split up...

[karter]

#nothing was the same...........devastating news....... except niall no one is tolerable ..

hopefully zayn will now drop some SICK bollywood beats ....yessss.

[Ms.Aquamarine]

Ah good ol' Larry... :P

[Kellie]

Wow I really didn't think it would be Zayn to leave first

[Alkaz]

And boyfriends (Louis and Harry).
No way, I don't like the idea of Larry Stylinson :'[ everyone else but not Louis.

[Circadia]

I definitely felt that Zayn would be the first to leave but any one of them could've left, they've been worked to the bone and they've been non stop for 5 years. The record label are doing what they do best, squeezing them dry whilst their fame lasts and running them into the ground themselves. I doubt that they will stay together past the next album, Zayns unique voice was what made their music and his falsetto is incredible and I doubt they'll be able to find someone to match his vocal talent.

That would be hilarious to see :P

Funnily enough, was speaking to friends not so long ago that One Direction wouldn't last for that long... looks like I will be proven to be right.

Wasn't he really annoyed too that none of his songs he wrote were picked for four. Totally agree with this. ahhhh
