From Rumors to Reality
Fans first spotted the pair together during a low-key dinner date in England last March. Things heated up in April when eagle-eyed followers noticed Louis’ signature tattoos in Zara’s social media posts – a subtle hint they were dating.
While neither had publicly confirmed their romance until now, this post erases all doubt.
Why U.S. Fans Care
Though McDermott is best known in the UK for reality shows and BBC documentaries, Tomlinson’s massive American fanbase has eagerly followed his love life since his One Direction days. The post sparked instant excitement, with comments flooding in like: “FINALLY!” and “Couple goals!”
Tomlinson’s last public relationship was with Eleanor Calder (2011-2015). McDermott previously dated Love Islandstar Adam Collard.
