British singer Harry Styles has opened up about a surprising and emotional moment from his past, revealing that he once laughed during his grandmother’s funeral, a memory he still finds emotionally complicated. The singer shared the anecdote during a recent appearance on internet personality Brittany Broski’s show, where he spoke about music, creativity, and life experiences that inspire his songwriting.

During the conversation, Styles joked about unconventional places that could serve as creative inspiration, including crematoriums. This led him to recall his grandmother’s funeral service, where a moment of unexpected humor overtook him. He explained that as the funeral bell rang, it played a tune reminiscent of a famous Beatles melody, which triggered an uncontrollable laugh.
