One Direction have dropped yet another member – but luckily for one night only, as they attended a fundraising gala.

Niall Horan, Liam Payne and Louis Tomlinson turned out in dapper suits to support a charity event, while Harry Styles enjoyed some time off in Los Angeles.

Despite it being only weeks since Zayn Malik decided to quit the group, the lads still looked like they were having fun on the red carpet for the Trekstock Great Gatsby Charity Ball, with Liam’s girlfriend Sophia Smith joining them.

According to Mail Online, Liam said: “It’s been a tough few weeks, probably the toughest since the band was formed five years ago. We’re gutted that Zayn chose to leave, but now after a few performances as a four piece, we’re feeling confident and are determined to carry on stronger than ever.”

Louis added: “All four of us are 100 per cent committed to staying in One Direction and we want to thank the fans for being so incredible during this time. We have so much more we still want to achieve.”

Niall recently told The Sun: “We’re looking forward to seeing all our fans on the tour this year. The fans are amazing. They are so loyal. All we want to do is make them proud and return their faith in us with a brilliant tour and an amazing new album.”

Harry continued: “It’s very exciting to be working on our fifth album, it shows how incredible the fans have been.”

The boys are supporting Trekstock, a charity helping young adults with cancer, by offering fans the chance to meet them backstage at a London gig in exchange for making a donation to the cause.

They offered a similar treat once before, with Directioners able to win a night out in London with Liam and Harry if they gave money to the charity.
