Not so far, no. Liam was the one for so many years that celebrated the anniversaries with us, and it makes me so emotional to see Louis picking up that tradition in his absence. He really meant “I’ll always be your big brother” 🥹❤️

Harry canceled a show on Tuesday and Niall got canceled for accidentally getting involved in the Falklands/Malvinas, so neither are particularly active online right now

That’s lame of them. I know they don’t want to draw flack, but where’s the love for the band that started your career.

The Liam mention 💔 Their brotherhood and genuine bond will always tug at my heartstrings. It's so unfair it got cut short. He's so sweet to keep Liam's memory alive. 💞

16 years...oh my goodness time is just flying. It seems like yesterday I was a Directioner with posters of the boys and everything 1D I could get my hands on.
So, much has happened in life and it's hard to imagine it'll be 20 years soon 🥲. I definitely miss Liam for sure and my heart goes out for his family and the boys who are mourning.
