But like any romance, Calder and Tomlinson's hasn't been without its ups and downs. They split, in 2015, after five years of dating amid reports that the long distance (she stayed in UK for uni and he toured the world) combined with his gruelling work schedule had taken its toll.

According to The Sun, the lovebirds reunited in January, weeks after Tomlinson ended his year-long romance with US actress . A source told The Sun's Bizarre column that she had supported him after his mother lost her battle with cancer. "Louis has had a rough ride the past few months and Eleanor wants him to know she is there if he needs anybody to talk to," the insider said. "They were together for a number of years and Louis feels he can rely on her."
The biggest indicator that the couple are an item is the fact that they were spotted wearing matching tracksuits at the airport.
