Payne admitted that he was really nervous, saying, "It's the most nervous I think I've ever been in my life."
Tomlinson, meanwhile, was worried that he made mistake when greeting Prince George's mother.
"I didn't say ma'am. I said - Hi. How are you? I'm Louis," the singer recalled.
Apart from the super group, the event was attended by Bette Midler and Ed Sheeran. Ellie Goulding, who sang at the Duke and Duchess' wedding, was also present.
