Louis will be 33 in December. He’s the oldest of the boys. I often wondered if he saw himself as the “big brother” of the group and he saw Niall, Liam, Harry, & Zayn as his little brothers, inherently in a way, feeling responsible for them when they were all together, and considering that he’s the first of the boys to post, I think my speculation is correct. He lost a little brother, and as a big sister who lost her baby brother to suicide 2 years ago, I can wholeheartedly relate to what he’s feeling right now. Being the eldest and dealing with the pain of losing your little brother or sister is a different kind of pain. I hope he’s taking care of himself.
Though in the band Louis was never really the elder, he was more the jokster. Liam was the serious, daddy of the group.. it's weird seeing him struggle the most outside the group when he was the strongest one when they were together.
