    One Direction bandmate Louis Tomlinson let's Harry Styles' single status slip during interview

    Harry Styles is back on the market, girls. The 18-year-old has split from The Inbetweeners actress Emily Atack, according to his bandmate Louis Tomlinson.

    Louis let Harry's single status slip during an interview with the Mirror, answering 'No, no' when asked by the paper if the two were an item.

    Harry Styles won't have to spend too long nursing a broken heart however as Louis also revealed the floppy haired singer is the most popular with female fans.

    He said: 'Do I even need to say who? I think it would be completely and utterly unfair to single out girls in that way, or put it like that.

    'But... if you were to put it like that, I think it would - possibly - be... Harry. Do we keep a tally? No, we do not! That's hideous.'

    The One Direction singer also made a cheeky dig at rival boyband The Wanted.

    He said: 'I think it is always blown up out of proportion, the way that just because we're two boybands there's massive rivalry.

    'But we are hoping that they'll still get on with us. Because, you know, there is potentially a spot on our arena tour for them to support us.'
