Niall Horan to write, record with ex Ellie Goulding

One Direction Star Niall Horan will be hitting the studio with former flame Ellie Goulding as soon as his One Direction hiatus begins.
The former couple was all smiles when Horan posed for photos with Goulding at a Jungle Ball concert stop in America last week and now she has opened up about her duet plans with her ex.
"He's a good friend of mine. It goes without saying that writing a song with someone you are friends with and someone you get on with, you can't really replace that with anything. I write the best songs with someone I feel truly comfortable with. So, definitely I think it will be a laugh," he said.

Horan and his bandmates will continue to promote their new album Made in the AM over the holidays before embarking on a break from each other, which Harry Styles recently told British chat show host Alan Carr he expects to last for about 18 months.
