Louis talks about Zayn’s decision to leave One Direction in the new episode of ‘The Diary of a CEO” podcast with Steven Bartlett.
“I thought that we had a relationship where he could’ve had that conversation with me. […] if he told me i would have tried to tell him to stay. […] If he didn’t wanna do something, he literally wouldn’t do it. […] and that’s what I admire about him. […] I wanna know if he regrets it. […] But it absolutely crushed me, I was absolutely devastated, it felt like ‘oh is this the beginning of the end of the band?’”
