Grimshaw said: “Yaaayyyy so happy Rita is back to co-host, genuinely one of my favourite days of the year.
“Looking forward to honouring our Teen Heroes and bringing you a massive show from Wembley.”
Payne added: “I can’t wait to play the Radio 1 Teen Awards – it’s always a great day with a brilliant line-up. I’m looking forward to performing my new songs and returning to the stage – but as a solo artist this time.”
His bandmate Harry Styles will take on Ed Sheeran, Lipa, Stormzy and Rag ‘N’ Bone man to be named best British solo artist at the show, while The Vamps, The 1975, Little Mix, Clean Bandit and Bastille will compete for the title of best British group.
