Johannah, the mother of One Direction heartthrob Louis Tomlinson, took to her official Twitter page this afternoon (July 10) to share memories of her son's life-changing 'X Factor' audition.

The three-year anniversary of his audition is today and Johannah posted a series of messages that revealed details about how they travelled to the event together and enjoyed the occasion as a family: "Three years ago today, about now Louis was waiting to audition for XF 2010!"

"That day started very normally & ended very differently to any other. I was up at 6am to make him sandwiches. We planned the day so carefully! It was like a family outing & Me & his four sisters, Woody & her children, BF Stan & Nan Jen & G/Pa Len."

She confessed that the sandwiches she made the 'Little Things' hitmaker were filled with ham and the shirt he wore for his audition "was from Next".

Referring to the success Tomlinson has enjoyed as a part of the boyband since leaving 'The X Factor', she added: "Since that day he has enjoyed so much success & he has four fabulous friends, he has travelled the world, met the Queen, bought his first car, bought his first house but I can honestly say he is still exactly the same boy that left the house that day."
