A full rundown of Louis Tomlinson’s dating history after he was spotted with Zara McDermott

Louis Tomlison and Zara McDermott have been spotted on a romantic dinner date in London, seemingly confirming their rumoured romance.

They are the last people anyone expected to get together, but a source told The Sun: “Louis whisked Zara away for a break in Suffolk and he absolutely charmed her, it’s clear he thinks she’s drop-dead gorgeous too.”

“Louis is a proper gentleman so this trip was something he planned and put on for Zara. He was really thoughtful and wanted to make it special,” the insider continued.

Apparently, the pair are taking this super slow after her recent split from Sam Thompson, but who has the ex-One Direction bandmate been with before? Here’s a recap of his entire dating history.

His first public romance was with model Eleanor Calder

Around the time he auditioned for The X-Factor in 2010, Louis was dating a girl called Hannah Walke, but they split in 2011 when his career took off. Then, his first proper relationship in the public eye was with model Eleanor Calder.

They started dating in autumn 2022 and were together for four years before breaking up in March 2015. They kept things pretty private but were pictured kissing at the London Olympic Games and made their red carpet debut at a Topshop fashion week show in February 2013.

Then he had a baby with personal stylist Briana Jungwirth

After splitting from Eleanor, Louis briefly dated personal stylist Briana Jungwirth in May 2015. They weren’t together for long at all, but they welcomed a baby boy called Freddie together in January 2016.

“I’m pleased to say my baby son was born yesterday. He is healthy and pretty amazing. I’m very happy!!” he wrote online at the time. Louis doesn’t post about him much, but Freddie is now nine years old.

Louis briefly dated Tamara Bell and Danielle Campbell

In 2015, the singer was briefly linked with model Tamara Bell after they were pictured holding hands at Glastonbury, but it seems like things never got very serious between them.

He then started dating actress Danielle Campbell and they went Instagram official in April 2016, with Louis posting a picture of him kissing her check captioned: “Lucky.” They went to the Monaco Grand Prix together in May and the Pride of Britain Awards in October, but split in January 2017.

Then he rekindled things with Eleanor Calder in 2017

In 2017, Louis rekindled his relationship with Eleanor Calder and told The Sun it was the real deal, saying: “If you’re asking me if I’m going to marry her? Yes, I think so! And more kids, I’d say so.”

They were together for another five years, but ended things in 2022 because the singer’s tour put too much pressure on their relationship.

His most recent romance was with model Sofie Nyvang

Finally, his most recent romance was with Danish model Sofie Nyvang, who Louis was linked with for a little while in 2023, but they never actually made things official.

Will things really work out with Zara? We’ll have to wait and see.
