I honestly think this is the first interview where he's not just being nasty and bitching about the boys,he's trying to be nice about it.It's clear he was only in it for the money but that's understandable,if you've seen his old house and how much his family needed that money.He was put in this band so he just went with it,started getting a big more money and who wouldn't want that? I'm sure most people would just go with it anyways because they can't just give it all up,because they don't like the music.I'm not saying he did the right thing,but he did what most humans would do and I don't blame him much.I just don't want to think that he never liked the band,the brotherhood they had,and the connection with the whole fandom and everything.I wish he hadn't said nasty things about the boys,and Perrie.If he left and didn't lie about wanting to "be a normal 22 year old guy" I would understand completely.There was no need for him to lie and deny the things this band did for him.He would be nothing if he hadn't been put in this band,so it's about time he shows a little gratitude.
