One Direction Split Sparks Amazing Twitter Reactions

| billboard.com |
Sources everywhere are now talking about the upcoming "split" of the cheesy boy band. That's if we can even call it a split. It's a predetermined break, if you ask me. A hiatus. The boys want a bit of time to work on their own stuff as of March 2016. I didn't even know splits were this organised, but at least they're giving their fans plenty of warning.
Anyway, as you can imagine, with news this huge and heartbreaking, comes a storm of tweeting 1D fans/trolls everywhere:

Some of the reactions have been hilarious. Like seriously.

Hats off to ITV2 for getting involved with what is perhaps my favourite reaction gif of the day!
What @onedirection will be like if they catch you 'seeing other bands'

If only we had to wait this long before 1D reform... I can imagine it will be in the much more immediate future.

But the reactions aren't all mickey-taking and jeering. Of course, One Direction do actually have some fans... Like this unlikely bunch at De Montfort University.

This poor soul can't quite believe the "rumours." I swear, if this is just a rumour...

And this one... I mean wow... so deep. I sure am glad they shared their opinion.

And this ... Are they in denial?
Don't believe everything on the Internet wait for the boys to say or tweet it #OneDirection pic.twitter.com/G9WseeGMSa

But my favourite is this one... It sums up perfectly how I feel and how (I'm sure) many others around me feel, especially after a slow year of listening to nonstop 1D antics and seeing what lengths their mentalist fans will go to for one last replay of "Best Song Ever."
When you hear #OneDirection have split up...
