Happy 22nd birthday Liam James Payne, and thank you for being such an inspiring, kind, talented, funny, beautiful role model. You are the most amazing man on this planet in my opinion, and whatever happens to this band I will always love you from the bottom of my heart.
From the moment you were born you faced so many challenges, with complications at birth of having only one kidney (and much more), to being bullied at school and being alone on your 16th birthday, and of course being turned away on your first series of The X Factor; you never let any of this stop you which is incredible to me to this day.
I'm so proud of everything you have achieved and continue to achieve to this day, from overcoming the **** that is thrown at you regularly, by the press and even by your own 'fans', to the way you care for the other boys and how you took up a lot of Zayn's solos on the tour - even the way you distract the crowd when you see the others out of breath. You are an amazing man and I love you so much. Here's to everything you do from now on.
