Liam Payne talks Zayn Malik
Former One Direction member Liam Payne opens up about Zayn Malik's split from the band.
Zayn walked away to pursue a solo career in 2015 but the news didn't go down well with his band mates.
'We haven’t really heard from him since he left.'
Liam opens up in a chat with GQ's Hype this week.
'We had our differences throughout the whole experience with some things.'
'I still think about some stuff that was said and done that now I would do differently, but then that's all part of growing up.'
'Being in One Direction was such a schoolyard mentality somehow – the One Direction University, I call it.'
'Everyone has stuff they’ve said at parties they wished they hadn’t but for us, the difference was that it was all happening in front of the world.'
The 26-year-old admits they haven't heard from Zayn since his departure.
'Now we are older, for me certainly there are things that I am just not as bothered about.'
'I think with Zayn’s particular exit and the way he chose to go, we haven’t really heard from him since he left.'
Liam makes the revelation that Zayn never actually said goodbye.
'He didn’t even say goodbye, if I am being honest.'
'It was a really sordid scenario, from our side certainly. A bit strange. It’s difficult.'
Meanwhile, Liam teams up with Stella Maxwell for Hugo Boss' body-wear campaign shoot.
He says he, 'basically shot soft-core porn,' with the model.
