After Liam Payne's death, One Direction's troubled past is revealed.

 

During their height of popularity, members of One Direction, one of the best-selling boy bands ever, were allegedly mistreated.

According to an In Touch insider, the management team essentially decimated the young musicians Louis Tomlinson, Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Liam Payne, and Zayn Malik.

According to the insider, "they weren't emotionally mature enough to handle the fame." They emphasized that the five boys were overworked and spent their youth confined to hotel rooms due to their demanding work schedules and appearances, rather than being able to lead regular, calm lives.

According to the source, "they were treated as if they were merchandise,"

Following Simon Cowell's revelation that he intends to hold another talent competition in an attempt to find the next huge boy band like One Direction, these remarks became public.

In 2010, while competing on the British television program The X Factor, One Direction was created.

But after captivating audiences for almost five years, the band took a break in 2016 after Dusk till Dawn singer Malik left in 2015.

Payne recently passed away at the age of 31 after falling from a hotel building on Wednesday, October 16, while the other members followed solo careers.
