It seems it’s not just One Direction’s fans who are distraught at Zayn Malik’s departure – it’s his bandmates too.

This video surfaced online tonight apparently showing Harry Styles crying on stage during the band’s performance in Jakarta this evening.

One Direction were performing in Indonesia as part of their On The Road Again Tour as a four-piece on the day it was announced Zayn is quitting because he wants “to be a normal 22-year-old who is able to relax and have some private time”.

He quit the boyband’s world tour last week after being “signed off with stress” and returned to the UK after he was forced to defend himself online and declare his love for fiancee Perrie Edwards when pictures emerged of him apparently close to another woman.

The band, who were put together after entering The X Factor as solo acts, have become millionaires on their way to being one of the biggest bands in the world.

Louis Walsh, a judge on The X Factor, told Irish radio station RTE Radio One: “I have heard the rumours for the last few weeks that everything wasn’t happy in paradise.

“The problem with these guys is they’ve been in a bubble for the last five years, pressure, working, a lot harder than people think, so something had to give. So Zayn was the first person just to crack up a little bit.”

He added: “He’s had an amazing time with the other guys. That’s the good side of it. The dark side of it is all the travelling, the airports, in a bubble, not really seeing real life.

“They burn out basically. The thing with One Direction is they were massive worldwide. They were going from continent to continent, right across America. Going from hotels to hotels, he probably didn’t see light of day, he was just working, working, working.

“Now it’s everybody’s dream, everybody loves it but there’s an awful lot of pressure with it too.”

Talking about his experience with Westlife and other boybands, Walsh said: “What I found in the past is as things get on, and as they get girlfriends, the girlfriends are whispering things in their ears and saying like ‘you should be a solo star’, ‘you should be the lead singer’ – that’s usually the problem.

“The first few years are usually great and then people always want to be the solo star.

“Everyone thinks it’s going to be Harry in One Direction and it probably will be. It happens in every band. It happens in every band in the whole world.”

Walsh said about Simon Cowell: “He’ll probably do another band. I know he is doing a Latino version of One Direction.”

Talking about Zayn, he added: “I’m told he’s very talented as a songwriter and I know he’s been in studio with producers in the last few months. He might surprise us.”
