Louis Tomlinson has paid tribute to his late mother as he marked eight years since his first audition for The X Factor.
The One Direction star’s mother Johannah Deakin died in December 2016 at the age of 43 after a long battle with leukaemia.
It was during the X Factor auditions that Tomlinson was teamed with Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Niall Horan and Zayn Malik to form One Direction.
The band are currently on an extended hiatus while they pursue solo careers after the departure of Malik from the line-up.
