Louis Tomlinson (31) speaks openly about his resentment. As part of the boy band One Direction consisting of Niall Horan (29) Zayn Malik (30) Liam Payne (29) and Harry Styles (29) the Brit stormed the charts for years. After the split in 2016, things went uphill for one member in particular: Harry has won three Grammys to date and has delivered one hit after the other. Not everyone seemed to begrudge him his success – because Louis was jealous of his ex-colleague!

In an interview with The Times, the musician spoke openly about his past feelings and revealed that Harry’s rise did not come as a surprise. What was going through Louis’ mind at the time? “Envy? Maybe at first when I was trying to get started myself but it’s never healthy to compare your own success to that of others is it?” admitted the 31-year-old. In the meantime the singer has a different approach to the topic: “Nowadays I learn in the moments when it is necessary to develop myself.”

A few months ago Louis revealed to Euphoria Magazine how he feels about being a solo artist. “If I leave the stage after a show and have the feeling that 90 percent of the people there had a good evening then I did a damn good job ” the “Walls” interpreter emphasized at the time.
