One Direction's Harry Styles, who has really been making a huge effort to make his fans happy despite Zayn Malik's exit from the band, has prepared a very meaningful message for his fans as the band celebrates their 5th year anniversary, according to reports.

It has been five years since Simon Cowell formed One Direction on The X Factor, drafting Styles with the rest of the members Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan, Liam Payne and Zayn Malik.

One Direction now reigns as one of the most popular boy bands in today's generation and is celebrating their 5th year in the music industry by thanking their fans and supporters who have stayed loyal to them all throughout the years.

On Twitter, Harry Styles sent a meaningful tweet to his fans, saying "We have been a band for five years. And it is impossible to thank anyone enough for all the support they have given us over this time..."

Styles also did not miss out thanking all the crew and everyone working behind the scenes, saying "All the crew that we have been so lucky to work with, and everyone who is behind the scenes. We thank you for everything that you do."

He went on saying, "To you who support us, in any way, thank you. We wouldn't be here without you. You did this and we thank you for having us. All the love"

Considering that the whole band has already reached more than enough milestones in their career, their fans have been asking what's in store for the next chapter of their journey as a band, now that Zayn Malik left and Louis Tomlinson is going to be a father soon.

One Direction manager, Simon Cowell, on his recent interview, said that the band can take some time off to do the stuff they want to do.

 "In terms of the band, they've got enough hits now they can take some time off and do some other stuff they want to do," he said. "Then I hope they'll have a little bit of time apart and want to get back together again. It's a fun job, but it's absolutely their decision."
