One Direction's reunion could be on hold for at least two years.

Liam Payne has ruined 1D fans' hopes they would see the band reunited by revealing his plans to move into TV.

"My album comes out at the end of the year and then I'm going on tour in 2019," he told the Star.

And rumours are rife the in-demand singer has signed up for a big US talent show.

"I have fun doing TV, and I have fun doing music, I want to do both!" he admitted.

"I will always want to do music, it's just that I had so many opportunities come my way and I felt it was just such an amazing time to go and spread my wings and experiment with different types of entertainment.

"It's amazing that were doing our own thing and then, hopefully one day soon, we get back together and have another great time of it, who knows?"

Last month, Liam smashed One Direction fans' hearts into a million pieces as he performed at Radio 1's Biggest Weekend.

Taking to the stage in Swansea, Payne launched into a "mini One Direction reunion" and there wasn't a dry eye in the house.

He sang History as a video of One Direction played on the big screen in the background.

The song was the boyband's final single before they went on hiatus in 2016.

And emotional fans rushed to Twitter to call the song the "highlight" of their weekend.

"Are you trying to break me?" one fan asked.

"Highlight of #biggestweekend was @LiamPayne singing History," another added.

"Playing his own music to this massive crowd, owning covers and reminiscing the boys. I’m a mess," a third fan wrote.

"@LiamPayne just performed History at @BBCR1 #BiggestWeekend and I just died," another fan added.

Payne also delighted fans with a selection of his solo hits including Familiar , Get Low and For You.

Last month he dropped a huge hint that the One Direction boys will definitely reunite, revealing that the lads have talked about a reunion and that they have a "dream" for a "most fantastic show".

However, it's not clear whether or not that reunion would include Zayn Malik, who quit the band in 2015.

Liam said in an interview: "We've all spoken about it, the dream for this most fantastic show.

"I think it will happen at some point."
