In the music video for his song 'Two Of Us', the One Direction lad helped out Richard, an 83-year-old, by fulfilling his wishes.
Louis Tomlinson recently recruited 83-year-old, Richard, to take part in the music video for 'Two Of Us', after he lost his wife to Alzheimer’s disease in the same month Louis lost his mother to leukemia.
The One Direction singer met Richard a month ago, and thought he'd "help him out". He wrote a lengthy message praising Richard, saying he was a "classic example of a fearless man who in light of tragedy still pushes himself to live with as much laughter and happiness as possible".
