Taking to Twitter, a user shared the video in which Harry can be seen arriving at his seat and sitting next to Pine. However, as he settled, Pine can be seen making an uncomfortable face before continuing to clap again.

I won’t sleep until I know the truth.” More than 5.5 million people have watched the video footage since it was posted on Tuesday early morning, with many viewers claiming that Styles “absolutely did” spit on his co-star.

It’s sufficiently well nourished.”
