One Direction reappear on social media after 4 years to mark 10th anniversary
Two years since they last made a Twitter update, the official account of One Direction broke its social media silence on Thursday sending fans abuzz.
The tweet comes a day before the boy group marks the first decade since they were formed after joining the UK version of “The X Factor.”
“Tomorrow! You and me got a whole lot of history #10YearsOf1D,” the post read, hinting that something big is possibly in store for the fans to celebrate the group’s anniversary.
The One Direction account also changed its profile picture showing its members although it is noticeable that Zayn Malik, who left the group in 2015, is still not in the photo.
The headshot only features Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Niall Horan, and Louis Tomlinson.
As of writing, the hashtag #10YearsOfOneDiretion is still the top trending topic on Twitter Philippines.

Fans from all over the world could barely contain their anticipation. “I’m alright I’m alright I’M OKAY!” one user wrote. Another commented, “Thank you for 10 years of joy we love u.”
One Direction was planning to reunite to celebrate their big anniversary.
“The members of One Direction are planning on doing something for their 10-year anniversary in July, but haven’t confirmed what that is yet,” the source said of the group, comprising Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson and Zayn Malik. “The guys started talking more frequently recently and have worked on putting a lot of things behind them.”

“With the outbreak of COVID-19, the guys living all over the world and with different management and labels, it’s hard to solidify what their reunion will be, but the guys want to do something for their fans,” the source added.
One Direction was formed by Simon Cowell on X Factor in 2010. Malik left the group in 2015, and the remaining members went their separate ways shortly thereafter. See more on the band in the video below.
