Niall Horan Wishes His One Direction Bandmate Liam Payne Happy Birthday

Proving that there’s no love lost between the One Direction bandmates, Niall Horan was one of the first to wish Liam Payne a happy birthday today.

The Irish singer shared an adorable selfie of himself with Liam, reigniting our hopes that this One Direction hiatus really isn’t forever.

The cute snap showed Liam pretending to be asleep on Niall’s chest, with Niall captioning the pic: “Happy birthday @liampayne !! Miss your scent…”, followed by the poo emoji.

Charming, eh?

Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson are yet to follow Niall’s lead, but considering Harry is currently eight hours behind UK time in Los Angeles, and Louis is no doubt having a lay in after partying in Ibiza, we reckon that we don’t have too much longer to wait before the birthday wishes appear.

Liam’s girlfriend Cheryl also hasn’t publicly acknowledged Liam’s birthday, but he isn’t short of social media love with fans of the star trending #HappyBirthdayLiamPayne on Twitter as they shared gifs and memories of him through the years:

One person who will no doubt be completely ignoring Li’s birthday is his former boss Simon Cowell, who recently slammed the star for not telling him that he was signing a solo record contract with another label.
