After taking a bit of a break from the spotlight whilst he worked on his debut solo album, One Direction star Louis Tomlinson is back on the interview circuit following the release of his second single ‘Back To You’, a collaboration with Bebe Rexha.

In his latest chat, Louis has heaped praise on his bandmate Harry Styles, admitting that he has a “very high level of respect” for the star following his transition to Hollywood actor.

Speaking about a possible One Direction reunion, 25-year-old Louis explained: “Honestly, I just think it’s too difficult to say [when the band will reunite], especially with someone like Harry, who’s got so much potential.

“It’s just kind of a confusing place for him to be as an individual, to be like, ‘OK, what is next?’

“There’s no politics or anything. Inevitably in a band, you’re going to get some people who get on really well and some people who get on quite well.
