Harry Styles’ “Watermelon Sugar” Music Video Is All About Touching
A list of Harry Styles‘ exes reads like a Who’s Who of the biggest names in Hollywood.
The 26-year-old pop singer rose to fame a decade ago with One Direction, making him an international heartthrob. And some very famous entertainers took notice. Since skyrocketing to success, Harry has been romantically linked to Taylor Swift, Kendall Jenner and a slew of Victoria’s Secret models.
Now, Miley Cyrus is even trying to shoot her shot. And really, who can blame her? During a recent interview with British radio network Heart, the “Plastic Hearts” singer was asked if she would rather kiss Justin Bieber or the currently single Harry. In true Miley fashion, she couldn’t be tamed when it came to sharing her thoughts. “Harry, that’s easy,” she quickly replied. “Justin Bieber I’ve known way too long, and it’s like a family. Harry Styles! He’s looking really good.”
“And we have very similar tastes,” she continued. “I think sharing a closet, sharing a life together—it just makes sense.”
It really, really does.
But before Miley swoops in and makes it official with Harry, let’s take a look back at his incredibly star-studded dating history. Shall we?

Caroline Flack
Styles and the late X Factor host dated in 2011. Flack, who is about 15 years older than him, wrote in her 2015 memoir, Storm in a C Cup, “At the beginning it was all very playful. He joked about being attracted to older women. There was 12 years between us…no one seemed to be bothered then about the age difference.”
She said “it began to go wrong” after there was an unflattering tabloid story about her romance with him, in which she was dubbed a “classic me-first cougar” and “predatory older woman.” She said strangers called her “pedophile” and “pervert” to her face and that One Direction fans harassed and mocked her.

Emily Atack
In 2012, Styles was romantically linked to the Inbetweeners actress. A year later, she told Reveal magazine, “We were never boyfriend and girlfriend. I think that’s the first time I’ve ever admitted to what it was, because I’ve always just shrugged it off before. But I think it’s best to clear it up. So, yeah, we had a short-lived thing that was just a bit of fun. Then we went off in our opposite directions.”

Taylor Swift
Ah, they Haylor days. The superstar duo dated from the fall of 2012 to winter 2013. During that time, the two were famously photographed walking together in Central Park. “When I see photos from that day, I think: Relationships are hard, at any age,” Styles told Rolling Stone in 2017. “And adding in that you don’t really understand exactly how it works when you’re 18, trying to navigate all that stuff didn’t make it easier.”
“I mean, you’re a little bit awkward to begin with,” he added. “You’re on a date with someone you really like. It should be that simple, right? It was a learning experience for sure. But at the heart of it, I just wanted it to be a normal date.”
Since going their separate ways, they have both seemed to pen songs about one another: “I Knew You Were Trouble,” “Style” and “Perfect.”

Tess Ward
During her romance with Styles in the summer of 2017, the chef and food blogger received an almost unbearable amount of online hate. “It’s been so weird, the hate messages…very bizarre,” she told The Times that year. “I’m not the kind of person who’s interested in fame, and if you’re put in an environment which you don’t understand and you can’t control and you don’t want, it’s horrible.”
