He said: "It is just a break at the moment for everyone to go off and do their own thing for a bit, but you never know what's gonna happen.

"It could be a long break or it could be quite a short one, but it's probably going to be quite a lengthy one if I'm honest.

"Obviously you never know what's gonna happen in the future. We might go out for a couple of drinks, and in a few minutes' time say 'Well actually, we'd all like to get back in the studio' so you never know what's gonna happen."

However the 20-year-old star stressed that the five members of the band are all pumped to get out on the road for their final dates together.

"Everyone's really looking forward to the tour. They really can't wait to get out on the road and see all the fans and this tour for us is just like a big old thank you to all the fans for their amazing support they've given us over the last like four or five years."

Nathan's bandmate Max George broke the news that the pair of them are both going it alone a month ago.

You should've known I love you
Though I'll never say it too much
Maybe you didn't get me
Maybe I'll never know what I've done

Now I'm lost in the distance
You look at me like a stranger
Cause how it looks right now to me
Is you were scared of the danger

I could've shown you America
All the bright lights of the universe
We could've reached the highest heights
A different place, a different life
Remember that night underneath the stars
For a minute I thought the world was ours
All you had to do was show me love

Yeah it's true you know, we're not perfect
There's a fire inside of me
It means I'll fight for the things that are worth it
If it makes me feel complete
Cause I'm hitting rocks, and I'm taking shots
I'm prepared to lose everything I've got

Now I'm lost in the distance
You look at me like a stranger
Cause how it looks right now to me
Nothing can save us

I could've shown you America
All the bright lights of the universe
We could've reached the highest heights
A different place, a different life
Remember that night underneath the stars
For a minute I thought the world was ours
All you had to do was show me love

Show me love, love
Show me love, love
Show me, show me love
Show me, show me love
Show me, show me love

Show me, show me love
Show me love, love
Show me love, love
I could've shown you America
All the bright lights of the universe
We could've reached the highest heights
A different place, a different life
Remember that night underneath the stars
For a minute I thought the world was ours
All you had to do was show me love
All you had to do was show me love
