      Liam posed in a new shot with a close-cropped haircut – just like some his former bandmates have done in the past – captioning the snap: “A new chapter.”

      After reading the caption, fans fast-tracked their guesses about the iconic boy band’s possible return.
      One observant fan joked: “No offence but Why the hell is everyone going bald?? First Harry then Zayn and now Liam!! What kind of haircut reunion is this.”

      Last year, Harry, 29, also gave his famous curly locks a chop and opted for a shaved head.
      He showcased his new look while attending U2’s Las Vegas Sphere concert with his partner, Taylor Russell.
      Not long after, Zayn, 31, joined the club and showed off his new style at Paris Fashion Week.
      After years of intense fame, One Direction disbanded nearly a decade ago.
      They originally met on X Factor where they all auditioned as solo artists. X Factor judge Simon Cowell then put them together and they became a boy group.
      They came third place on the show with Matt Cardle winning the show.
      One of their most popular singles, What Makes You Beautiful debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 at number 28.
      The respective artists have since released music separately.

      The star had recently returned from a romantic Caribbean getaway with girlfriend Taylor Russell when it is claimed he was targeted by the woman in North London.
      It is the latest stalker incident involving the former One Direction star after Diana Tarazaga-Orero, 29, forced her way into his home in an unrelated incident in 2022 — three years after being convicted of stalking.
      That forced him to upgrade his security, employing a night guard and installing a panic lock on his bedroom door.
      The latest alleged stalker Carvalho had been staying at a hostel in Earls Court, West London, court documents have revealed.

      She appeared at Highbury Corner magistrates’ court on Tuesday, where it was heard she “pursued a course of conduct — namely harassed — which amounted to stalking causing serious alarm or distress”.
      The charge said her actions had a “substantial adverse effect” on the star’s “usual day-to-day activities”.
      She was told she “knew, or ought to have known, your course of conduct would cause alarm or distress”.
      Carvalho was remanded in custody and will next appear at Harrow crown court on February 20.

      “This happened not long after he had come back.
      “Harry just wants to carry on as normal, but this has been concerning.” More

      The glowing mum-to-be has now settled down with Dr Alistair Garner, who she was first pictured holding hands with back in September.
      She revealed her pregnancy tonight in an emotional Instagram post, saying: “Hello Everyone, it’s been a little while but I’m back with some news. I’m delighted to share with you all that we’re having a baby!!
      “I’ve never been so happy and utterly terrified at the same time. Please go easy on me.”
      But before that the 33-year-old actress had a number of high profile romances, including one with One Direction singer Harry Styles and I’m A Celeb star Seann Walsh.

      Emily’s fling with the beloved pop star happened sometime between 2010 and 2013, when she finally admitted they “had fun” but no longer speak.
      She first expressed interest in the baby-faced singer in 2010, tweeting: “Does Harry from One Direction HAVE to be 16?!
      “Let’s pretend he’s 18 at least! Then there’d be only One Direction he’d be going – to the bedroom!”
      In 2013, Emily revealed that the two had ended up dating for period of time, but that they no longer keep in touch.
      Most read in Celebrity
      She said: “We had a nice little fling. We were never boyfriend and girlfriend. I think that’s the first time I’ve ever admitted to what it was, because I’ve just shrugged it off before.
      “Harry and I had fun, then went in opposite directions. We haven’t spoken in a while.”
      She then went on to have a serious relationship with Hollister model Jack Vacher.
      The pair dated for five years before things fell apart, leaving Emily heartbroken.
      When she appeared in the jungle on I’m A Celeb, the TV star admitted the break up had affected her mental health.
      Emily also jokingly begged the reality show bosses to find her a boyfriend, saying that her time Down Under would be more enjoyable if she could meet a man.
      She added: “Deep down I’m a relationship girl.
      “I think if you look for it, it’s less likely you’ll find it, but I kind of am looking. I’d love to plan a future with someone.”
      Emily was next linked with McFly bassist Dougie Poynter, who she reportedly had a “friends with benefits” fling with after becoming single.
      She was then secretly wooed by Strictly Come Dancing love rat Seann Walsh in 2016.
      At the time he was understood to be in the middle of his five-year-long relationship with long-term partner Rebecca Humphries.
      According to sources Sean and Emily first “clicked” at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August 2016 and went on to enjoy a series of liaisons, meeting at pubs and hotels.
      A source said: “Seann and Emily were really keen on each other. They were totally wrapped up in each other’s company.
      “Emily told pe­ople she was in love with Seann. She liked the way he was funny and quite macho — a man’s man.
      “He obviously made her laugh but also treated her well and ­lavished her with her gifts and flowers. She liked the fact that he was a little bit older and more experienced than her, so seemed like a man of the world.”
      Two years later Emily reportedly dated ex-Big Brother hunk Ziggy Lichman for a few months after meeting through mutual friends.
      A source told the Mirror: “Emily is far from single. It’s probably the worst kept secret around where they live – they’re always together.
      “They have loads of mutual friends and met a few times over the years but there has always been a lot of chemistry between them.
      “When they met this summer they realised how much they liked each other and started dating.”
      But Emily’s spokesperson denied the rumours, saying: “Emily is categorically not in a relationship with Ziggy. They are friends but nothing more.”
      After a few other short lived romances, The Sun exclusively revealed that Emily had been secretly meeting up with footballer Jack Grealish in 2021.
      He was still in an on off relationship with childhood sweetheart Sasha Attwood at the time, but according to friends started calling Emily almost daily once they started being in touch.
      Jack’s friend told the Sun: “Emily watched Jack in the Euros and thought he was fit.
      “And for his part, Jack has been a fan of hers since she starred as Charlotte ‘Big Jugs’ Hinchcliffe in The Inbetweeners.
      “They started DMing on Instagram before swapping numbers, and taking it on to WhatsApp and FaceTime.
      “Jack’s been calling her almost every day and has been pretty open about it.
      “They’ve become really good mates, are FaceTiming loads and he’s like a little puppy dog around her.
      “It’s very sweet. They have a real laugh together. They’re getting very close but obviously haven’t crossed a line.”
      After their connection was reported on the footballer went back to his girlfriend, leaving Emily upset.
      A source close to Jack said: “By all accounts, Emily is really hurt, and feeling incredibly bruised by the whole encounter.
      “She’s kept a dignified silence about their fling but now Jack – who made out he was single – has gone running back to Sasha.
      “One minute he was besotted, the next he was back with Sasha and acting as if Emily didn’t mean anything.
      “When their affair came to light, it quickly became apparent that people were getting hurt – and that things could get very messy.
      “Emily didn’t want a huge drama, and took the executive decision to calmly walk away.
      “Maybe they can be pals again once the dust has settled – but certainly not for the foreseeable.”
      Before meeting her current partner, Emily went out with Big Brother star Liam McGough for seven months.
      The tree surgeon met her family back in August 2022 and she even went Instagram official with him.
      However, after a few months went by they amicably parted ways.
      A source revealed: “Emily and Liam have been friends for a long time and were together for seven months, but sadly have decided to separate.
      “They kept their relationship private for a while and only went public when the news broke that they were together.

      “Sadly, they decided they were better off as friends and parted ways a few days ago, but it’s all very amicable.”
      Now the actress has put the boy toys and celebrity flings to one side, and seems incredibly loved up with Dr Alistair.

      Liam’s bodywork is meant to remind him that a glimmer of hope can always be found
      He got the body art to remind him that a glimmer of hope can always be found in all of his struggles.
      Tattooist to the stars Certified Letter Boy, who has inked celebs including Cruz and Romeo Beckham, explained: “It reflects Liam’s journey and the universal truth that in our darkest moments, there’s always a way back.”
      The move comes as he finalises his second studio album, which he has promised will be deeply personal and address some of his hardest times.
      Liam, who is dating TikTok star Kate Cassidy, said of his new music: “Lyrically it’s about the relationship I am in at the moment.

      “It has been tough at times and great at others, and also my relationship with myself and what I found out about myself when I went to rehab and all those things.”
      In July, Liam revealed he had secretly spent 100 days in a wellness clinic after struggling to cope with life after One Direction.
      The following month, The Sun told how Liam was forced to axe his planned South American tour after falling ill with a kidney infection.
      Less than four weeks later he was rushed to hospital while recuperating in Italy, where he remained for a week.

      He told fans earlier this month: “I’ve been travelling a lot as some of you might have seen and I’m feeling in a much better state health wise. I’ve really needed the break.”
      Liam’s debut album LP1 was released four years ago but only peaked at No17 and he later said he had struggled to find his own sound for the project, particularly while his old bandmate Harry Styles’ career flourished.
      Speaking in 2021, he said: “Harry had the song off the first album that did really well, and then on the second album he found himself, and that is your awakening as an artist, that’s when it really clicks.
      “I don’t feel like I’ve had that moment within me yet.
      “I think I got so used to carting around other people’s songs and not embedding myself creatively in what I do, because I was scared to find out who I was.” More

      It has sparked speculation that the pair, both 29,  have already split.
      Canadian actress Taylor and Harry have been an item since June.
      They have been spotted on several dates around London.
      But last week Taylor flew to the capital to take part in a high-end fashion shoot and stayed away from the Watermelon Sugar hitmaker.

      The pair were last seen together watching Irish rock band U2 at The Sphere in Las Vegas last month.
      Previously, Harry took Taylor on a romantic Caribbean break on the private island of Mustique.
      An insider said: “Taylor and Harry’s relationship appears to have cooled as they juggle hectic work schedules.
      “Taylor spent her trip to London alone and stayed at a hotel instead of with Harry.
      Most read in Showbiz
      “It’s been a whirlwind romance but they’re still young and at pivotal points in their careers.
      “They have a lot of respect for each other and had been planning on spending Christmas together.”
      Harry, who recently shaved off his curly brown locks, was spotted wearing a beanie hat out in his neighbourhood last weekend.
      He was alone as he grabbed takeaway sushi.
      In August, Taylor, who has also starred in the film Bones And All and the sci-fi series Lost In Space, spoke about her relationships, saying she always expected to be left bruised by love.
      She explained: “The tax on a real relationship is the reality that you will get hurt, you will (have) grief, something will be lost at some point and that’s OK. It’s worth it.”
      But Taylor also said she found love intoxicating. She added: “What’s my favourite drug? Does love count? I mean, love, a lot of the time, feels like a drug. You feel so insane.”

      The release is set to mark a new direction – pun intended – for the Strip That Down singer who struggled to find his feet with his debut record LP1.
      A source said: “Liam flew to Ireland in October to film the video in October but while fans saw him out and about he managed to keep the shoot under wraps.
      “Initially the release was for the end of 2023 but with Liam being admitted to hospital in September the timeline has been pushed back.
      “He’s now doing great and the plan is to drop the comeback single in the first few months of 2024. After a lot of searching he’s finally found his sound.”
      In September The Sun told how Liam had been rushed to hospital for the second time in as many months amid issues with his kidneys.
      He had been holidaying with girlfriend Kate Cassidy in Italy before being race from his luxury hotel to hospital via an ambivalence.

      “Doctors have warned him not to expect to be signed off to go home for at least another six days.
      “They want to do every test possible to understand the issue fully but they now suspect that there has been an underlying issue for a while that has been getting worse.”
      A week later he was discharged by medics and returned home to England to recover.
      He had initially been all set to tour South America but the tour was axed at the last minute under doctors orders.
      Speaking earlier this year about his solo career, Liam said: “To be honest with you, when I became solo, I didn’t rehearse very much so we’ve rehearsed — we’re rehearsing a lot for these shows.
      “Hopefully it’ll be a much better put-together show, I wanna put some good videos in the background, some good things about me for people to learn about what I’ve been doing for the last two years.
      “I’m just excited to show this new side of myself.”
