They’d “go for walks, cook dinner, wash the lettuce, all that kind of stuff,” he says, until he decided to use his downtime productively and began writing new material. Less than a year later, he won his first Grammy for it.Īs the pandemic deepened, Styles ended up back in Los Angeles, where he keeps a home, and moved in with three friends.
