Guys, we FINALLY know some juicy relationship details about Zara McDermott and Louis Tomlinson
Somebody check on Sam Thompson
Zara McDermott and Louis Tomlinson’s fledgling relationship is annoyingly mysterious. The information we are drip-fed, which is honestly not a lot, leaves a lot to the imagination. This was partly why everyone was thoroughly convinced that Zara’s ex, Sam Thompson, was feuding with the former One Direction singer during 2025’s Soccer Aid.
Rumours of Zara living our teenage dreams first began bubbling on the internet after eagle-eyed One Direction groupies noticed them following one another on Instagram. Louis’ three sisters, Lottie, Daisy and Phoebe, also dropped the former Made in Chelsea star a follow, contributing to the speculation. Soon enough, they were spotted enjoying a posh pub lunch at The Suffolk Hotel, dining on £100 fish and chips.

“For now, they’re taking things slowly and enjoying each other’s company to see where it takes them,” a source said at the time.
From there, it was basically crickets, besides going Instagram official and a few carefully selected photos and videos posted to Instagram.
But guys, here’s where things get juicy because *apparently* they’re basically living together.

In a new report from The Sun, it was revealed that Zara McDermott and Louis Tomlinson are essentially living together for practical reasons.
“They’re smitten and she has been spending all of her time at his place, she’s pretty much moved in. Zara has even started making her social media videos from there instead of her parents’,” a source claimed. “She had been back at her family home after her split from her ex.”
Zara moved back into her parents’ house after her second split from Sam Thompson around Christmas time in 2024. Sam was devastated by the hard launch of Louis and Zara, telling bestie Pete Wicks that he “wouldn’t wish a hard launch on my worst enemy though.”
According to the same source, Zara and Louis are very much in the “honeymoon stage” of their relationship, and while they haven’t officially moved in with one another, she’s basically there all the time.
“But Louis’s home and her parents’ house are nowhere near each other, so it made sense that she is spending more time at his,” the source added.
“They’re in the honeymoon stage and want to be with each other as much as possible when they’re not working. Zara spent loads of time travelling with Louis this summer, and now they’re back in the UK, she’s using his place as a base a lot of the time.”
Super happy for Zara, if a little bit (massively) envious, but someone check on Sammy boy. His golden retriever energy can’t take much more.
