Niall reveals they’re “saying the worst things ever about my little nephew”.
If there was ever a more blatant sign that cyber-bullying is a MASSIVE problem than One Direction’s Niall Horan pleading with trolls to stop writing about his LITTLE NEPHEW, then we’d like to know what it is.
The 1D singer took to Twitter last night for a furious - and well deserved - rant all about the attacks and abuse he’s faced over the past few weeks.
Niall says his phone’s been “drowned” in abusive messages from a certain group of fans keeping him up all night and saying terrible things about not just him - but his family, too!
“For the last two weeks I’ve been receiving messages off a group of fans, they have drowned my phone in messages, keeping me awake at night,” Niall tweeted. “But the worst part is. They have been nothing but abusive. Saying things you wouldn’t even believe about me and my family.
“And saying the worst things ever about my little nephew,” Niall shockingly revealed. “Thank god I’m not the kind of person who thinks into stuff like this. But i just think it’s crazy how we let people away with things like this
“And the sad things is, as I tweet this they are in the group chat laughing at me,” he added. “Don’t worry about me. I’m the most carefree, laid-back person around. But I’m just signalling it, because this s***e is happening to others.”

The Twitter rant from Niall Horan comes fresh from this week’s rumours he’s planning his own solo music career and has been working with one of the writers and producers behind ‘Best Song Ever’.
