Harry Styles Leaves One Direction

Harry Styles has followed the move of Zayn Malik as he left the band that made him popular in the music industry. Reports revealed that the One Direction star has officially separated from his management team, Modest Management. It can be recalled Zayn Malik left the group in May last year. The same report also indicated that the singer has joined Jeffrey Azoff, son of Irving Azoff.

The move of Styles was confirmed by Modest through a statement it released to Billboard. Harry Magee and Richard Griffiths, executives of Modest Management, are wishing the best for the singer and they were pleased with being able to work with the star. The executives also described Styles as a “total gentleman,” and they are confident that he will be taken care of by Jeffrey Azoff.

The Sun newspaper reported earlier that the new team of Harry Styles is currently working on the launching of the solo career of the singer. The launch of the solo career of the singer is expected sometime next year. It remains uncertain whether Syco Music of Simon Cowell will be retained as the UK label of the singer. However, sources reportedly revealed to the newspaper that Styles wants to cut ties with One Direction completely, which may include all professional connections with the group.

Due to this, the future of One Direction remains to be seen. However, a source close to the group revealed that the hiatus plans of the group remain unchanged even after Harry Styles left the group. The source added that everything will be revealed soon through the members of the band themselves. Zayn Malik, who released a solo video recently, revealed that he is open to a reunion with his former band mates. Malik said he will make the decision when the time is right and it is the right thing to do.
