One Direction’s Louis Tomlinson Teaches Son Freddie How To Play Guitar In Adorable Photo

Louis Tomlinson is already sharing his love for music with his 1-year-old son, Freddie.

Music is in the blood of the former One Direction singer, and Tomlinson has made sure to give his son a jumpstart on his possible future career as an artist. According to Entertainment Tonight, while the 25-year-old singer is gearing for his debut solo album at the moment, he still takes time to bond with his tyke and continue giving him guitar lessons.

On Friday, Tomlinson posted an adorable photo of him with Freddie on Instagram. In the pic, his mini-me seems to be having fun playing around with an electric guitar. Tomlinson did not write a caption for the photo, only putting a smiley face.

This is not the first time that the 1D member has introduced his son to the guitar. Last year, Tomlinson also shared a snapshot of him strumming his guitar as Freddie, who was only six months old at the time, sits on his lap. In the photo, his tiny hands hold on to the rim of the guitar as his dad shows him how to play it, Daily Mail reported.

Freddie is Tomlinson’s son with friend Briana Jungwirth. The pair maintained an amicable relationship during Jungwirth’s pregnancy, but they began having issues with the baby’s custody when the One Direction singer eventually got a girlfriend. Tomlinson’s baby mama reportedly did not like it when he brought along his then-girlfriend, Danielle Campbell, whenever he visited Freddie. The two started dating just weeks before Jungwirth gave birth to their son. “Their relationship has hit rock bottom. He is not welcome at Briana or her family’s homes anymore," one source said last year.

Meanwhile, another insider added (via The Sun), “Things are strained. Now he’s picking up his son in a car park.”

However, another source told Daily Mail that “The Originals” star had never been to the home where Jungwirth and Freddie resided. The house was bought by Tomlinson for his son and baby mama.

But despite his troubled relationships with some of the women in his life, there is no denying Tomlinson adores his baby boy. There were even reportedly times when he turned down work both in the U.K. and internationally just to be with his son in Los Angeles.

In other news, Tomlinson recently revealed that he originally had no plans to become a solo artist until One Direction disbanded. “If you’d asked me a year or 18 months ago: ‘Are you going to do anything as a solo artist?’ I’d have said absolutely not,” the musician told The Guardian. “But then I’d be conceding.”
