One of the most popular boy bands of this generation is said to be One Direction. The members of the band participated in the show The X Factor. Despite not winning, they have reached another height.
There have been many speculations about whether any of the members of One Direction are gay. They have achieved success and established their name across the world but the public has always been curious about their love lives. Even there were also rumors of them being gay including:
- Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson: This was to be believed that the two were involved romantically, though these were never confirmed. Most likely it was just gossip but this became the reason for differences between them as the media reviewed each public interaction between them. This may also have led to the split of the band.
- Niall Horan: He was spotted with another man in a nightclub where it was believed they were sharing a kiss. But it was expected to be just a friendly hug.
Who Is Gay in One Direction?
If anyone is believed to be gay in One Direction, it would more likely be Harry Styles as he shot for the Vogue cover wearing such a dress that sparked rumors around. But we believe this is not proof of his sexuality though it ended up raising speculations about him. He has always chosen some unconventional dresses to wear but this should not be the reason for people to assume his sexuality.
Though Harry Styles has also been rumored to be dating many women. Last year, he confirmed his relationship with Olivia Wilde officially.
Harry was linked to the below names:
- Taylor Swift: The relationship was short but is the inspiration for some of their songs released around that time.
- Nicole Scherzinger: He was in a brief relationship with Nicole.
- Caroline Flack: The two met on the sets of The X Factor but their age gap, as well as public reaction to their relationship, caused the split between them.
- Kendall Jenner: Harry was in an on-and-off relationship with Kendall Jenner.
With the above information, it seems like he is not gay and he also never confirmed his relationships with another man.
Is Niall Horan Gay?
As of now, Niall Horan is dating Amelia Woolley. Even after the supposed kiss in the nightclub, he has not dated any man reportedly. We may also expect that he or other former band members concealed their relationships though it’s less likely to happen as they have immense popularity around the globe.
Is Louis Tomlinson Gay?
There were rumors of Louis dating Harry but the former then opened up about rumors and called those disrespectful to his girlfriend, Eleanor. He never confirmed himself about dating another man.
Is Zayn Malik Gay?
In 2020, Zayn Malik welcomed a child with his girlfriend Gigi Hadid. Also, there were never rumors of him dating a man.
Is Liam Payne Gay?
Liam Payne has broken up with his fiancée recently which led people to believe he is gay. His songs’ lyrics also contributed to prompting this opinion about him as he was being homophobic and fetishizing bisexuality. But again, he never confirmed his sexuality.
So, even after all those speculations from media and people, the boyband members publicly stand in support of the LGBTQ community, but none of them have confirmed to be gay or having a relationship with another man. It may turn out that they are hiding their sexuality but as of now, these are nothing more than speculations. Also, people are now evolving in a positive way so their sexuality would not probably affect the love their fans have for them.
