Liam: “She’s absolutely amazing”, “I’m completely in awe of his incredible mother and how she has been the whole way through this. Shes made my dreams come true”
Louis: “……………………………………………………………”
Liam: “We’re still in the phase where he doesn’t understand what’s going on. Although, I was watching a scene in something the other day, I was holding him on my lap… I covered [the TV] with a tower of cushions and faced him away from the TV. It was like an action scene, it was a little bit brutal so I was like, I don’t want you watching. I know that you have no concept of what’s going on and you can’t see further than 30cm but I still don’t want this in your face”
Louis: “me and Freddie are just catching up on the football”
Liam: “I love being a parent. It’s the best thing in the world. It’s been nice being home for the weekend as I got to do bathtub with my son which is, I’ve got to say, one of the highlights of my day. There’s many smiles in the bathtub and it’s lovely. You are right it’s the best thing in the world.”
Louis: “this is gonna sound really funny…every time we can do something new, i know he’s not a dog but, he’s taking new steps, stuff like that”
Liam: “Niall bought him some trainers actually, which was really kind of him. Harry sent me some flowers, which was really nice..”
Niall: “Anytime I’m in LA it’s always land in the evening and then the child’s already asleep.”
Liam: Just before he was born, i recorded his heartbeat and we used it in a drumbeat for a song. So his heartbeat is somewhere within the album, which is amazing.
Louis: “No, I don’t think it’s changed me writing too much. Writing in particular I don’t find, I’m not really, it’s not like I’m writing songs about me son, I mean I love him obviously but I don’t know, I don’t think it’s affected… I mean it’s affected how I am as a person, a little bit…
Liam: “I spent the whole [first] day doing the nappy changing business”
Interviewer: Have you changed a nappy yet? Louis: *looks to the side, kind of murmurs the question to himself* “Have i changed a nappy yet…. *deflects* i actually changed 100 nappies before freddie cos i, i used to help out with my sisters… so yeah i have changed a shitty nappy thank you”
Liam: “And Bear’s beautiful. I love him and I miss him terribly. I can’t talk about him too much ‘cause it makes me sad, ‘cause I miss him a lot. When people go ‘show us a picture’ I think I don’t really want to, ‘cause I’m gonna get sad about it. It’s hard being away from your newborn son, but I understand this is something I have to do”
Louis in 2016: England, Vegas, Mexico, NYC, Ibiza, Coachella, Utah, Atlanta, Monaco
Liam: “I stopped smoking, that’s the best thing ever. Honestly, anyone out there who’s trying to stop smoking, just do it, honestly. I just did cold turkey, I knew my son was coming, and I was like, I’m not gonna be smoking with my son, that’s not right. My life’s not my own anymore, now, it’s not mine to decide, so smoking had to go.”
Louis:
Liam when asked if he prefers nights in or out: “Night in. With my baby son Bear and my missus”
