Liam Payne took to his twitter today to tell his followers that he and the band had spent the day writing. He posted : “1st day writing the album it’s gunna [sic] be a great day! Huge day of writing, so excited! The team never stops! Wonder what tomorrow’s writing will bring?”

“Look, I went through it myself and Nick [Jonas], my brother, tweeted the other day that sometimes you have to go through some tough decisions to find true happiness and I stick behind him on that… You know it is not easy. They are under so much scrutiny in their spotlight. And to live a normal free life is difficult, sometimes you want to be a kid and you want to grow up. To find normalcy in the craziness is the most important.”
