Liam Payne speaks out about struggles in the height of his career while in One Direction

Liam Payne has spoken out about his struggles during One Direction.

The singer has revealed he faked happiness while at the height of his fame.

The former One Direction member told The Sun he often was forced to put up a front and to put a “happy smile” on his face but underneath it he was battling demons.

“I shouldn’t have been able to do as many shows as we did, if I’m honest about it, if I’m brutally honest about it,” he said.

“Going out and putting that happy smile on my face and singing the songs, honestly, sometimes it was like putting on one of those costumes, going out there and, underneath the costume, people don’t really see what’s going on.”

Back in 2015 One Direction cancelled three of their tour shows last minute after Liam had “taken ill.”

At that time it was reported that Liam had a meltdown backstage after suffering panic attack-like symptoms.

The singer had also just broke up with ex – girlfriend Sophia Smith.

“I let it get to me that day. I wasn’t in a good place. And unfortunately I was going through a rough time and I let it get to me a little bit too much,” he added.
