Niall Horan Pays Tribute To Liam Payne On Heartbreaking New Song
Niall Horan is opening up about his former bandmate Liam Payne’s death.

Niall Horan Makes Sense of Love, Loss, and Growing Up
Horan’s knack for live performance has also proved useful during his three-season stint as a judge on The Voice, where he closed the loop on his reality TV competition days and mentored each of his seasons’ final contestants to victory. He also got really into golf. (Like, so into golf that he bought a golf management company in 2016.) Through it all, he was still getting on planes and living out of suitcases. But something about turning 30, then 31 and 32, startled him into a reflective state. “When you’re going through something when you’re young, you’re kind of either breezing through it and it’s just happening around you or you’re constantly overthinking,” he says. “The older I get, the more grateful I’ve become for what I’ve had.

To look back and look at all photos, look at all the videos, think about what you did. It’s pretty …
