As is with celebrities, their personal lives get as much attention as their work. Similarly, Harry Styles have been in news several times because of his dating life. However, he has expressed his wish to have a normal dating experience.
Initially, Harry Styles was eliminated from X-Factor
It seems that appearing solo at the talent show did nothing for him. However, Harry Styles returned to X-Factor as a part of a boy band which would later become a phenomenon. One Director won almost 200 awards and gained immense popularity all over the world. However, all the members of the band parted ways in 2016.
Flying solo, Styles maintained his status as a music superstar
In 2017, he released his first solo album named ‘Harry Styles’. His song, ‘Sign of the Times’, topped the US Billboard Hot 100 and was named as the song of the year in Rolling Stones. In 2019, he released his second album, ‘Fine Line’, which broke all the records by being the highest sold album of an English artist in the US. This year, on Valentine’s Day, Styles was mugged on knifepoint. Recounting the incident, he called it terrifying.
For a long time, his sexuality has been under scrutiny because of the way he dresses up. According to him:
“Am I sprinkling in nuggets of sexual ambiguity to try and be more interesting? No. In terms of how I wanna dress, and what the album sleeve’s gonna be, I tend to make decisions in terms of collaborators I want to work with. I want things to look a certain way. Not because it makes me look gay, or it makes me look straight, or it makes me look bisexual, but because I think it looks cool.”
Recently, he talked about his dating life on The Howard Stern Show
His relationship status has always gained his fans’ attention. When he dated, Caroline Flack, it ended up in controversy because of their age gap. Similarly, Styles’ relationship with Taylor Swift was one of the most talked-about in Hollywood. However, he talked in detail about his dating life on Howard Stern’s show. He said:
“I mean I’d like to be, it’s definitely what I want to like to do. It’s always kind of a balance thing, because you want to date normally but then, you also want to protect it so it can be normal. I think a big part of it is like, you wanna be able to spend enough time with each other where you can get to know each other before you have to deal with the extra stuff.”
Whether he dates a celebrity or someone unknown, Harry Styles’ relationship will always get attention. He might have run away from the mugging, Styles cannot run away from the media.
