Relationships Louis Tomlinson & Eleanor
Calder
Ever since One Direction's Zayn Malik got engaged to Perrie
Edwards, everyone has been betting on Louis Tomlinson getting down
on one knee next, especially since him and Eleanor Calder have been
dating for so long! But according to the "Story of My Life" star,
he's not popping the question anytime soon.
When the Metro asked Louis if he feels the pressure to get married
now that his bandmate is, he said, "Zayn’s decisions are his own.
We’ve all congratulated him on it, but as far as I am in my
relationship, I’m cool for now. I think most people are the marrying
kind, I just don’t know when yet. I still feel young."
Now that 1D is taking a break from their tour, Louis is really
excited to spend some quality time with the people he loves most,
including Eleanor.
"We just cherish the time we have at home and make plenty of time
for family and friends," Louis said. "There’s a break coming up. We
have a couple of months where we recharge. Just going to do normal
things and see the family. Do very little. That all helps."

Harry Styles & Taylor Swift
More details have emerged about Taylor Swift and Harry Styles'
break-up, following yesterday's reports that the pair ended their
short-lived romance when Taylor left their tropical holiday in the
British Virgin Islands two days early.
"Yes I can confirm they have split up," a MailOnline source said.
"They were on holiday and had an almighty row. They are two young
stars at the top of their game so who knows what will happen in the
future."
Another source told Life & Style magazine that the pair's work
commitments got in the way of their love life.
"They are both really busy and never in one place for long," the
source said.
"Harry's really upset about the split and is really sensitive about
it. Loads of his friends told him to be careful and that it was
never going to last, and he feels a little foolish now that it's
fallen apart so quickly."
More evidence of their split has come to light, with two men
spotting Taylor looking "visibly heartbroken" at the St Thomas
airport in the US Virgin Islands on January 4. The men, Mike Zavagno
and Jake Hurley, told the New York Post what they saw.
"She looked really sad and lonely, really down," Zavagno said.
Hurley continued: "We had heard she was down there with Harry Styles
from One Direction, but the impression that I got was that they must
have had a fight or something because she was just with her
bodyguard and I said to Mike, 'She looks really sad'".
Taylor wasn't seen crying, but Hurley said that "you could tell that
something was visibly wrong".
"She was just sitting there with her hands in her lap, no phone or
anything," he said, adding that when people called her name, she
waved back but "didn't really get into it".
Meanwhile, in Harry land, the 18-year-old was seen partying for two
days at Richard Branson's Necker Island (see hot tub pic above).
When he flew out on Sunday, Harry was spotted "mingling with pretty
female fans" over a three-and-a-half hour layover in Puerto Rico.
One witness told the New York Post that Harry seemed "really happy"
with his fans, giving hugs, posing for photos, and eventually going
out to lunch with them at a nearby Italian restaurant.
Harry headed straight to the recording studio upon his return to
London, talking to girls in the street on his way there. Could there
be a break-up song in the works?

Zayn Malik & Perrie Edwards
Zayn Malik has opened about his engagement to Little Mix singer
Perrie Edwards for the first time.
But fans should prepare to be slightly underwhelmed, as the One
Direction star has been pretty brief about the whole thing.
When quizzed by a reporter about his current relationship status, he
simply stated: "It's cool, it's really cool, we're really happy."
Edwards fuelled speculation that she was set to wed Malik when she
stepped out at the world premiere of his movie, One Direction: This
Is Us sporting a diamond sparkler on her ring finger.
A publicist for the couple then confirmed to GLAMOUR.com: "Zayn and
Perrie are engaged, but any further detail regarding their
relationship is private."

Harry Styles & Louis Tomlinson "Larry Stylinson"
Or at least half of Larry Stylinson - the fictional bromantic
pair created by wildly imaginative One Direction fans who concocted
a relationship between band mates Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson.
There's erotic fan fiction online, plus doctored photos and video
evidence used to suggest Harry and Louis' looking at each other or
brushing each other's leg is some kind of hidden code.
Backstage in Melbourne, Tomlinson and bandmate Zayn Malik are fresh
from a quick holiday together to Hamilton Island to break up their
lengthy Australian tour.
It was just the two of them - a knife in the imaginary heart of
Larry Stylinson. Or perhaps the start of Layn Malikson?
They're discussing some of the wild theories created by their fans -
one documentary saw fans suggesting when the band go overseas they
have to do something to fill up their time. And bandwidth.
"We've all dwelt on some conspiracy theory at some point," Malik,
20, muses. "Thought something was real."
"The psychology behind the theories are very interesting,"
Tomlinson, 21, notes.
However mentioning the Larry Stylinson theories provokes that most
rare of incidents - a boy band F Bomb.
"That's a f----ing annoyance," Tomlinson says of the false rumours
linking him to Styles.
Can he not appreciate the impressive amount of work that's gone into
it at least?
"I wouldn't say it was impressive," Tomlinson fumes. "I'd say it was
annoying."
RIP Larry Stylinson.
Sadly for this interview Styles, 19, is under the weather, so his
thoughts on the matter remain unclear, however sources suggest he
finds it more amusing than his band mate clearly does.
One Direction are a fascinating test case for the accessible new
world of pop.
Social media was responsible for their success stretching beyond
just the UK, where they were assembled on the X Factor in 2010.
However they're now breaking ground for how Twitter can be used as a
stalking tool by obsessed fans.
