Liam Payne has addressed recent rumours about himself.
The musician who is currently holidaying in Argentina has been entertaining fans on TikTok and Snapchat with his recent outings with girlfriend Kate Cassidy has been dogged by claims about him and a close friend. Over the past few months, Payne, 31, has been travelling across the globe while also hinting that he's been working on new music for fans.
Payne's last release, Teardrops, failed to chart but it's expected to be on his next album, which he recently teased fans about – although he didn't indicate when the record would be out. But while he's been hitting the studio, Liam has been embroiled in social media speculation about his friendships and relationships.
Over the summer, Liam was pictured holding hands with Argentinian man Roger Nores, one of his close friends as he and their group of pals walked out of a bar. Fans instantly rushed to social media to speculate about their friendship. Roger had also joined Liam in the studio, with many pointing out that the pair were spending a lot of time together.
However, their friendship is purely platonic following reports stating otherwise in local media. Liam said: "There was a lot of things in magazines saying me and Roger are gay together – not true, unfortunately." The Polaroid hitmaker went on to say: "Although, if I was, I might go for him, who knows.
"But I'm not, so I won't and he's not – so I know he won't, either. That clears that up!" But while Liam has cleared the wild speculation up – he's whipped fans into another frenzy after revealing he was attending Niall Horan's concert in Argentina. It comes after their former One Direction bandmate Harry Styles also attended one of Niall's concerts at the Co-op Live arena in Manchester.
"We're going to Argentina to see Nialler," Liam told fans. He went on to add: "We're going to Argentina. One, because we have to, and two, because we want to, and three, because Niall Horan's playing down there and I think we might just go and say 'Hello'. It's been a while since me and Niall have spoken. We've got a lot to talk about and I would like to square up a couple things with the boy. No bad vibes or nothing like that, but just, we need to talk."
Fans couldn't contain their joy as they flocked to X, formerly known as Twitter to share their excitement. "Liam is going to see Niall in Argentina, first Narry and now Niam on tour, always warms my heart when the boys support each other," gushed one. A second added: "Liam will be at Niall's show tomorrow!! Niam reunion!!"
Over the course of their time in One Direction, Liam and Niall became close friends and would often be seen engaging in jokes with one another leaving them both in fits of laughter.
