The 28-year-old singer, admitted being sad and people feeling sorry for him is the last thing he wanted.

“You know what, maybe because I’ve had real dark moments in my life, they’ve given me the scope for optimism. In the grand scheme of things, of what I’ve experienced, these everyday problems…they don’t seem so bad,” Tomlinson told The Telegraph.

Louis added to The Telegraph, “You know, because of my story, my album was a little heavy at times and a little somber and as I’m sure you’re aware, from talking to me, now, that isn’t who I am.”

Back in 2017, the father of one said his mother’s death almost broke him at the time, and in an interview with ‘Billboard’ he claimed that his mom told him to ‘keep going’,” she told me very sternly that she wanted me to.”

In 2019 Tomlinson dedicated a song from his ‘walls’ Album titled ‘two of us’ to his late mother Johanna.
