[Blind Gossip] We have some interesting insight into the dating habits of this famous boy bander!
We’ve told you before that his public girlfriends are fake. That is still true. However, they are not fake for the reason you think they are!
You might think that his public relationships are fake because he is gay. That’s not it. It all has to do with age.
He had a public relationship in the past with an older woman that was real. However, they caught a lot of flack about it because of their age difference.
So he decided to simply avoid the problem by separating his public/fake dating from his private/real dating. His public girlfriends are now all his age. His private girlfriends are now all much older.
He is just much more attracted to older women. After he and [Woman 1] broke up, he started quietly dating [Woman 2] in private. They have now been on and off for years.
Woman 2 is definitely quite a bit older than him. Not quite his Mum’s age, but certainly old enough that it would raise a few eyebrows.
Why does he fancy older women?
The younger, public girlfriends are interested in him for the fame and attention. The older women don’t care about that and just like having sex.
So… the younger ones are for the public and the older ones are for him in private. It’s an interesting arrangement that seems to work for everyone involved!
BONUS CLUE: If you think this is about Harry, you are going in the wrong direction!

[Optional] Do you think this public/private split is a smart way for him to date?

Boy bander: Harry Styles
Woman 1: Caroline Flack
I definitely think that he is doing it the right way, being a celebrity is already hard enough! I really wouldn’t want to be in his place that’s for sure!
Lucretia says
The blind very clearly says “If you think this is about Harry, you are going in the wrong direction,” so why is everyone guessing Harry?
More over, we already know the boy is as queer as a three-dollar bill, so he doesn’t fit even if the blind hadn’t told us it’s not him!
bhakti says
The bonus clue about Harry was added after a bunch of people guessed ?
TheSalmon says
Because most of these people guessed BEFORE the bonus clue was posted.
And because the BI is intentionally misleading. Not only by using words “flack” (for Caroline) and British term “fancy” but w the “not quite as old as his mum.” Harry famously said, as a cheeky 17-year-old, that his age limit for girls went “as old as my mum.”
BadBarbie says
Simmer Lucretia. It ain’t that serious.
We are all just playing for fun.
hvp5ss says
The bonus clue was added after the original post, after many comments had been posted.
Ginger Kitty says
Bonus clues are added after the BI has been posted. Most of the people guessing Harry replied before the bonus clue.

BONUS CLUE: If you think this is about Harry, you are going in the wrong direction!
jj the great says
Now that we see the bonus clue & know it can’t be Harry, the only other person who makes sense is Nick Jonas, who first dated Kate Hudson publicly, and I have no clue who he’s dating privately now. If it’s not him, then I’m lost. PS- The writer of the blind REALLY wanted us to think it was Harry, with the “flack” and “boy bander” clues (even though Nick technically is, who thinks of him that way?) lol; Though I WAS confused, since every other blind ever says he’s gay.

Nick Jonas
Woman 1- Kate Hudson
the smartest way for him to date is whatever he finds comfortable for him….. however, it does seem a bit messy to me. Where’s can I fill out an application to be his fake gf?!
BadBarbie says
Haha! Send me the sign up sheet.
Gay Fawkes says
Harry Styles (relationship with Caroline Flack).
So years of gay speculation has been wrong?
boyzmom says
Now I wonder if the gay speculation was really for publicity with the young female crowd. They seemed to eat up the idea that Harry and Louis were secretly gay. They all “shipped” (I truly loathe that word) a love affair between the two, so the 1D publicists milked it for all its worth.
nataliakill says
Harry Styles, Caroline Flack, dont know who woman 2 is
Hints: they caught a lot of ‘flack’ about it

Harry Styles
Woman1: Caroline Flack
I think it’s smart. As with all Celebrity, the Public Persona is much different than the private one. I’d go insane if I were living my ‘real’ life out in the public eye/paps lenses.
KittyNC says
The clue was ‘caught a lot of flack’
artistsnow says
Not sure who this is, Zayn?
BUT I DO know why younger men prefer older women. lol. It happened to me! When I joined Tinder I was swamped with younger matches I had NO clue this would happen. Pretty sure it’s because certain things get better with age. ;-}
Bambalina11 says
Well because of the “Flack” clue and fancy is a British term for being attracted to someone I think this may be Harry styles….I know there are a lot of blinds that’s state he is gay but:
a) he dated Caroline Flack who is about twenty years older than him and they got ripped to shreds in the U.K. tabloids and
b) when he was a contestant on the xfactor and story broke about how he had been having s3x with his mums friend….
Haydyh says
Harry Styles?
He once went out with a presenter called Caroline Flack . She’s about 10 years older than him. I thought they made a cute couple . As they say you are only as old as the person you feel !
I think it’s a good idea to have public/ private split .
amala83 says
Harry Styles and Caroline Flack
Now I’m curious to know who’s he’s actually been dating!
mollydog says
Harry Styles and Caroline Flack. I’m confused as everything usually seems to point to him being gay.

Nice try, but Harry is gay.

CherryBomb27 says
Harry Styles and Caroline Flack, clue being they caught a lot of Flack.
Yes, I do. Him being linked with younger girls/women means his fans think he’s attainable. Plus an older woman probably wouldn’t be interested in the publicity that comes with dating.
poliana says
harry styles.
“flack”=caroline flack. they dated when he was 16 and it was a total drama.
Tootles says
I bloody knew it in my subconscious so why did it take me this blind spelt it out to acknowledge the obvious
Harry Styles and 1st Older was Caroline Flack (clue take the flack)
2nd Older on and off for years is Louise Teasdale the stylist for 1D. Only open time they were photographed together as a couple was at Louis Tomlinsons Mums wedding when they both looked very into each other. Marry her Harry, be happy
blueandgreen says
Harry Styles. Oh please…he’s gay.
That Caroline Flack nonsense was obviously a ploy to bring publicity to X Factor and Harry barely even played into it on live TV.
kimmukwest says
Harry Styles
Caroline Flack
saturnine says
This has to be about Harry Styles. He copped a lot of flak for openly dating a woman in her thirties when he was still a teen. He definitely likes them older.

Her: Jerry Hall ;-D (Here’s to you, Mrs. Robinson!)
Sure. Keeps his private life private. He’s not doing anything bad or wrong, he just wants his privacy!
Blackorchid85 says
Harry styles
Caroline flack
Clue – flack
slantrhyme says
Harry Styles
Ex: her last name is Flack (caught a lot of flack lmaoooo)
As long as the younger girls are happy getting famous from it, and the older women are ok with being private (plus they get to have sex with him), win-win, I suppose.
carriebradshaw says
Harry Styles who dated Caroline Flack, host on x factor.
TwistedSweetness says
Harry Styles
Caroline Flack
Yes, because he’s giving his fans what they fantasize about, but he’s still being true to himself privately.

Nick Jonas
Oreogirl says
Harry Styles
Caroline Flack
I do think it’s smart! His fans are vicious when it comes to who he’s linked with. He’s incredibly private so the fake girlfriends get their end of the deal and the real ones get to live their lives in peace while still hopefully having really great sex.
Oreogirl says
Well, ok then. That flack clue was evil! 🙂

The clues make it sound like Harry Styles, but that a) seems too easy and b) goes against other blinds on here, so I’m going to go with Nick Jonas.
mika2 says
definitely harry styles
KiraKat says
HARRY STYLES, CAROLINE FLACK
I feel bad for Harry and am glad he can keep his real dating life a secret. He has always been attracted to older ladies…my theory was because they are still pretty hot (ar the time he was dating women in their 30’s)and are experienced in bed…so win win..do wonder who he is seeing now…his female stylist…they have known each other for years and she is 10 yrs older..
Bamadex says
I’m thouroghly confused if this is supposed to be Harry Styles. Since 2012 we’ve had tons of BIs about Harry being gay, Harry and Louis, Harry’s beards, etc.
Is he bisexual now? ‘Cause he sure isn’t straight.
aaaTaz says
Harry Styles.
clue: flack. He was dating Caroline Flack at one point during his x factor stint.
Optional: Who he dates isn’t anyones business but I do like to think he is open to dating anyone of any sex.
KiraKat says
Yes! Can totally see him being bi!
baileykiyomi says
Harry Styles.
Am I old enough? Haha.

Harry Styles
mmorina says
This is DEFINITELY Harry Styles, “flack,” is the clue, as in Caroline Flack, his ex girlfriend and co host of The X Factor. Harry was 17 and she was 33 at the time, and neither tried hiding it until the controversy hit.
Interesting how suddenly BG says he isn’t gay but yet all those years gossip columnist tried to lead with that dumb Larry Stylinskn gag. Which leads me to believe some of these columnists behind these gay rumors, create them because they’re a gay and like to indulge in…
Canyoun0t says
It is DEFINITELY not because it literally says it isn’t if you read the full post

harry styles
woman 1 was caroline flack i remember that it was only gross back then cuz he was like 16 or 17
idc what he does anymore
sayswho says
Boybander: Harry Styles
Woman1: Caroline Flack
Caroline Flack was forced on Harry when he was 16-17 years old and she was in her 30’s. Simon’s idea no doubt and has hurt Harry greatly! Having said that any woman he has been with in the public eye (other than the ones who were his sister or mother the columns paired him with!) has been a PR stunt and is boring us all to death. Harry is a lovely person and deserves appreciation but this new management is just screwing him like his old…

Didn’t see that Harry had been eliminated. I have no clue then.
craicmehappy says
This is supposed to be Harry Styles and the older woman was Caroline Flack.
He never confirms having a girlfriend so it’s all speculation anyway.
Moeshablanche says
Harry styles
justwondering says
Okay if this isn’t about Harry…is it about Liam? His current “girlfriend” Cheryl is 10 years older than him.. the younger girls he dated where Sophia Smith (who he was with before Cheryl) and Danielle Peazer.
So I think…
Boy bander: Liam Payne
