Louis Tomlinson, the former One Direction heartthrob, and Zara McDermott, the Love Island star turned documentary filmmaker, have officially gone public with their relationship! The couple was spotted holding hands during a lunch date at Soho Beach House in Malibu, confirming weeks of swirling romance rumors.
This unexpected pairing has taken fans by surprise, especially after Zara’s recent split from her long-term boyfriend, Made in Chelsea star Sam Thompson. But the new couple seems happier than ever, soaking up the Los Angeles sunshine and enjoying their time together.
Rumors of Louis and Zara’s relationship first surfaced in March when they were seen on a cozy date at The Suffolk in Aldeburgh. Shortly after, eagle-eyed fans noticed they were both at the same Stereophonics concert in LA, posting nearly identical videos from the venue.
Zara also hinted at her U.S. trip by sharing a snap of Crumbl Cookies’ Kardashian-Jenner edition, further fueling speculation. Now, with their first public outing, the couple has made their relationship Instagram-official—without even needing to post!
Zara first rose to fame on Love Island in 2018 but has since reinvented herself as a serious documentary filmmaker. Her work includes hard-hitting projects like Revenge Porn and Disordered Eating, showcasing her dedication to raising awareness on important issues.
Her shift from reality TV to advocacy has earned her respect in the industry—and perhaps even caught Louis’ attention. Friends say he’s impressed by her ambition and "wholesome, health-conscious" lifestyle.
Louis, who shares an eight-year-old son, Freddie, with ex Briana Jungwirth, has kept his love life relatively private in recent years. His last known romance was with model Sofie Nyvang in early 2023.
Now, it seems he’s found a new connection with Zara—one that has already gained approval from his sisters (Phoebe, Daisy, and Lottie), who all follow Zara on Instagram.
Zara’s ex, Sam Thompson, may not be thrilled about her new romance. The pair split on New Year’s Day after five years together, and sources say the breakup was tough on Sam. However, friends reveal that Louis has "put a smile back on Zara’s face," suggesting she’s moved on happily.
