One Direction heartthrob Liam Payne has reportedly split with long-term girlfriend Danielle Peazer.
Payne, who has been dating the backing dancer for two years after meeting her on The X Factor, is said to have ended their romance after not having time for a relationship - NOT because of Twitter trolls as first thought.
The Sun had previously reported that the abuse Peazer received on social-networking sites played a huge part in the break-up, with a source telling the newspaper: "It was getting impossible to keep it going.
"They were apart so much and everything that was being said to Danielle on Twitter was getting to her. They both still care for each other and will remain friends, but it all just got too much.”
However, a pal of the 19-year old singer has blamed his work commitments with 1D, explaining to The Mirror: "They have split in the last few days because it has been more and more difficult to keep the relationship going with Liam spending more and more time away.
"He has hardly been able to see Danielle in recent months and the band have a world tour next year so it was only going to get harder.
"They ended things but Liam hopes they have left on good terms. She was the first real love of his life."
Liam now joins single band members Harry Styles and Niall Horan, while Zayn Malik is still dating Little Mix star Perrie Edwards and Louis Tomlinson is in a relationship with model, Eleanor Calder.
