Louis Tomlinson's relationship history
Some 1D fans are reportedly obsessed with the idea that Tomlinson has a longstanding romantic involvement with former bandmate Harry Styles.
While this is untrue, or so they claim, we can confirm that Tomlinson has been romantically linked to the following:
Eleanor Calder: 2011-15; 2017-22
Tomlinson’s longest and most significant relationship came in two parts with Eleanor Calder, a Manchester-born model and former politics student whom he met through Harry Styles.
The pair initially dated from 2011 but People reported they split in 2015 due to the challenges of maintaining a relationship while Tomlinson was on tour.
Calder, who had 3.3 million followers on Instagram at the time of writing, reportedly reunited with Tomlinson. However, the Sun reported they broke up again due to their busy schedules.
Briana Jungwirth: 2015
After his split with Calder, Tomlinson had a brief relationship with US stylist Briana Jungwirth, which resulted in the pair having a child together.
The BBC reported that they were “really good friends”, suggesting their romance was short-lived.
Danielle Campbell: 2015-16
Following his split with Calder, Tomlinson dated American actress Danielle Campbell for a year.

They reportedly broke up shortly after his mother passed away in 2016, according to the Sun.
Zara McDermott: 2025
It can now be confirmed that Love Island star McDermott and Tomlinson are an item after the pair were seen together on dates in April.
Rumours had begun in March with the possible sighting of the two together in a Suffolk restaurant.
The pair became “Instagram official” in May when Tomlinson commented “Proud of you x” under McDermott’s post.
Despite the fact that he was not in the photos, his sisters Lottie and Phoebe expressed their agreement by adding loving emojis to the comments.
