Harry Styles Reveals What He Learned From 3 Year Break From Public Eye

Harry Styles needed a long break to get his taste back.  

Three months after the Grammy winner kicked off his Together, Together tour, he shared insight into what he learned during his nearly three years away from the stage.

“In the time that I took away from touring, I watered a side of my life I hadn’t paid much attention to previously,” Styles explained in an interview with W magazine published Aug. 25. “Because I started so young, touring became so much of who I was. I would feel quite uncomfortable with stretches at home.”

Indeed, after nearly 13 years of continuously producing albums and touring, the One Direction alum—whose former bandmates included Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik, Niall Horan and the late Liam Payne—admitted, “I didn’t know what to do with myself sometimes.”

And after figuring it out, Styles—who reportedly got engaged to Zoë Kravitz in April—emphasized he came back feeling better than ever when he dropped Kiss All The Time, Disco Occasionally in March.
