Why They're In The News
NIALL Horan is looking back on one very ambitious home upgrade with a sense of humour.
During an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, the singer revealed that building a full pub in the basement of his £10 million London home turned out to be, in his words, “the worst idea” he’s ever had.
Horan explained that because London pubs typically close around 11 p.m., the after-party naturally ends up at his place.
“All of a sudden I have a house full of people,” he said, adding that getting guests to leave can be a challenge.
His solution? Turn off the music, switch on the lights, and quietly usher people out through a side entrance.
The former One Direction star said the space is a real pub rather than just a bar, and it even includes a piano. Still, he joked that singing after a few drinks is the last thing he wants to do.
Horan also shared a sweet detail about his relationship with Amelia Woolley, revealing that the couple first met at a dinner party at his home through mutual friends. The pair have been together since 2020.
The singer reportedly bought the West London property last year and has been renovating it into a more grown-up family home. Professionally, Horan is also looking ahead, recently confirming that he has started gathering ideas for his fourth album.
