AceShowbiz - Fans of One Direction went into a frenzy on Tuesday night as Harry Styles, 30, secretly supported former bandmate Niall Horan, also 30, at his Manchester Co-op Live gig. Videos and snaps shared on social media showed Harry in the crowd, dancing along to Niall's performance of "Stockholm Syndrome".

Fans expressed their excitement on X (formerly Twitter) as they witnessed half of the band reunited. "Can't believe I've just been in the same room as 50% of One Direction close enough welcome back guys," one fan tweeted.

Fan outside the arena chimed in, "It shows how much support they give to each other, even though they're no longer in a band together. We just hope that one day we'll see all the 1D boys back together."

The reunion comes amid reports that Zayn Malik, who left One Direction in 2015, is looking to reconcile with Harry, Niall, Louis Tomlinson and Liam Payne. After nearly a decade of estrangement, Zayn is reportedly seeking "forgiveness and friendship" with his former bandmates.

Insiders claim that Zayn is not focused on a band reunion but rather on rebuilding relationships. However, fans remain hopeful for a potential return of the full One Direction lineup.

Meanwhile, Niall and Harry have maintained a close bond over the years. Niall has attended several of Harry's concerts, and Harry has been spotted at Niall's events. In an interview, Niall praised Harry, saying, "He's still the same, bubbly character he always was."

The reunion at Niall's Manchester gig has reignited the dream of a One Direction comeback. While the band has been on an indefinite hiatus since 2016, fans continue to hold out hope for a day when all five members share the stage once more.
