Inside Harry Styles and Olivia Wilde’s hot new romance, and why he doesn’t care about the 10-year age gap

WHEN HARRY MET OLIVIA

WHETHER you were a fan of One Direction or not, it’s hard to deny that the guy who fronted the boy band is a cutie. Those dishevelled locks, that cheeky smile, those adorable dimples – little wonder this photogenic fella has been dubbed “the internet’s boyfriend”.

Millions of young girls have been swooning over Harry Styles since he first burst onto the scene on the UK’s The X Factor when he was a teenager a decade ago. Now he’s hot stuff and a big success.

Fashion, film, music – the 26-year-old seems to have the proverbial Midas touch. His legions of loyal fans call themselves Stylers – but there’s one thing these fervent followers don’t like: when Harry the Hottie falls in love.

Latest case in point: actress Olivia Wilde, the 36-year-old beauty who’s directing him in the upcoming psychological horror film Don’t Worry Darling. The pair were outed earlier this month when pics emerged of them holding hands at the wedding of Harry’s manager, Jeffrey Azoff, in California.

One of the guests also revealed that Harry referred to Olivia as his girlfriend in his speech at the reception. Cue outrage from Stylers. She’s too old for you, they complained. It’s unprofessional, they cried.

“So Harry Styles got the part because he sleeps with the director?” another asked, clearly munching on a bunch of sour grapes.

But do Olivia and Harry care? They do not. Things between them went from professional to cosy practically from the start, set insiders say.
