Isn’t is amazing how time just slips by? Well, Niall Horan was thinking the same thing today as the Mullingar member of the biggest boy band in the world celebrates four years at the top of music stardom today, Wednesday July 23.

“Wow ! Can’t believe it! 4 years ago today we were out together ! Crazy how time flies but it also feels like it was years and years ago !” said Niall.

And he wasn’t shy about telling his fans just how he feels as he took to social media to thank them:

“I can honestly say, thank you all so much, every one of you, from all over the world! Your support is absolutely incredible,” he gushed, adding “What you have done for us baffles my mind ever day! really appreciate everything ! Thank you , love you! Let’s have more fun now #4YearsOf1D”

After four years on the road together, it’s no wonder the boys including, Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Zayn Malik and Louis Tomlinson feel like family to him:

“Thank you lads ,we’ve had a great time so far, you are family to me now , not just band mates ! Love you,” said Niall, accompanied by an early photo of him and the rest of the band during the X Factor days.

As the band prepare for the American leg of the stadium tour, they are about to release the Where We Are concert film which will be shown in cinemas worldwide for just one weekend only on October 11 and 12, ahead of a DVD release in December.

This follows on from the film documentary on how the band changed their lives in 1D This Is Us which was released last year.
