Unbelievable! A fan said THIS to 1D’s Louis and Twitter is in uproar

Since they burst onto the music scene in 2010, One Direction have had to deal with more than their fair share of mass hysteria.

And while Directioners definitely have a name for themselves as hardcore fans, some amongst them tend to take things too far as one girl who recently spoke with Louis just proved.

In an unedited piece of audio which was uploaded to Twitter by 1D Updates, a female voice can be heard saying: "You f*cking bitch. I hope your baby dies."

After a moment's silence, a voice purported to be new dad, Louis, who welcomed baby son Freddie at the beginning of the year, responded: "Did you really just say that?"

Slamming the anonymous caller, Louis continued: "Luckily I’ve got you on record here so that’s gonna go straight to my lawyer. Well done…Well done."

After the audio hit the internet, Twitter went into meltdown, with thousands of 1D fans and followers apologising on behalf of the anonymous young fan, with one writing: "He doesn't deserve this. He's a good person to let this "slide" I don't get y he gets sm hate." (sic)

"Meanwhile, the rest of us innocent fans, who love and cherish the boys dearly, are tarred with the same brush and portrayed as crazy and psychotic because of one individual's actions," wrote another.

"We are not all like that. I'd be bawling my eyes out if got a phone call with Louis, I'd tell him I loved him, not waste it wishing death upon a baby," they finished.

We've heard some awful 1D stories in our time, but this has got to be the most shocking.
