Tomlinson, 22, hasn't had the easiest time lately after video of him and fellow 1D member Zayn Malik surfaced showing them smoking reportedly marijuana in Peru.

Reports later came out that the leaked video was causing tension in the boy band with Malik and Tomlinson not speaking with other 1D members Liam Payne, Harry Styles and Niall Horan. "At times, they're hardly talking backstage," a source told the Closer Magazine about the boys. "Liam [Payne], Harry [Styles] and Niall [Horan] are worried about losing fans - they're also nervous the scandal might affect their success in America."

The band is currently playing shows in their home country of England at Wembley Stadium. "What a night best day of my life everrrrr!!!!" Payne tweeted after the first concert yesterday. After the Wembley shows, the One Direction boys are headed to Sweden.
