Irish heartthrob Niall Horan has confessed that One Direction have no plans to split despite persistent rumours and their group diary is full right up until the end of 2014.

Speaking to Q Music radio, the 'What Makes You Beautiful' singer addressed recent reports that suggest the lads might go their separate ways after their 'Take Me Home' world tour and said that it's not even something they have thought about:

"We are definitely not going anywhere. We have our diaries set out for this year and most of next year, so we're not going anywhere yet."

The band will perform a concert in Norway later this evening (May 7) and Horan took to his official Twitter page earlier today to tell his fans that he was overwhelmed at the size of the venue: "This arena is mahooosive! It's like a football stadium! 8,000 on the floor alone! Can't wait Norway! Lets make it loud"
