Liam
Liam shared a screenshot of a text message he sent his dad after Simon Cowell put him in the group at Bootcamp.
The text was sent July 23rd, 2010 at 08:09pm, and it simply reads, 'Im in a boyband.'
Liam captioned the post, 'What a journey…'
'I had no idea what we were in for when I sent this text to my Dad ten years ago at this exact time the band was formed.'
'Thanks to everyone that’s supported us over the years and thanks to the boys for sharing this with me,' he finished.
