Speculation has grown that Louis Tomlinson<\/a> and Zara McDermott<\/a> are dating after the pair were spotted enjoying a romantic meal together. <\/p>\n

The One Direction<\/a> star, 33, reportedly planned the date, which saw him take Zara, 28, to a romantic getaway at a hotel in Aldeburgh, Suffolk.<\/p>\n

In photos obtained by The Sun<\/a>, the pair held hands and laughed as they ate and drank, seemingly smitten with each other.<\/p>\n

The publication reported that the pair have been casually dating for some time. <\/p>\n

A source told the Sun: ‘Louis whisked Zara away for a break in Suffolk and he absolutely charmed her, it’s clear he thinks she’s drop-dead gorgeous too.<\/p>\n

‘Louis is a proper gentleman so this trip was something he planned and put on for Zara. He was really thoughtful and wanted to make it special.’<\/p>\n

The source emphasised that the pair are taking things slow.<\/p>\n

This follows previous speculation that Zara, who split from I\u2019m A Celebrity star Sam Thompson in December<\/a> after a five-year-long relationship, was romantically seeing Louis.<\/p>\n

According to The Sun,<\/a> claims of the romance began on Reddit, after Louis\u2019 fans noticed that the pair had started following each other on Instagram.<\/p>\n

They also noticed that Louis\u2019 siblings Lottie and twins Daisy and Phoebe had started following Zara too.<\/p>\n

The post on Reddit claimed: \u2018I\u2019ve read a lot of rumours that Louis is in a relationship with Zara McDermott. <\/p>\n

\u2018They recently started to follow each other on Instagram. She follows all of his sisters, and they follow her back.\u2019<\/p>\n

They added: \u2018Obviously, following a person on instagram doesn\u2019t mean that people are in a relationship, lol, But, I just find it weird, and I am scared that this will be a new stunt. Especially since I\u2019ve read about them many times.<\/p>\n

\u2018Louis is having a concert in London today, and I\u2019m just waiting for Zara to be spotted there or that she post a story from the concert.\u2019<\/p>\n

After five years together, Zara and Sam reportedly called it quits in December<\/a>, which allegedly came as the result of a difficult year as they both focusing on individual projects.<\/p>\n

While Zara has been busy working on documentaries, Sam had spent a significant amount of time in Australia for I\u2019m A Celebrity\u2026 Get Me Out of Here\u2019s<\/a> spin-off show, Unpacked.<\/p>\n

In January, Sam was chatting to best friend Pete Wicks<\/a> on their joint Staying Relevant <\/a>podcast when his pal asked \u2018what\u2019s been going on?\u2019<\/p>\n

Referencing the split, Sam admitted: \u2018It was tough. It\u2019s been a tough month. A real tough month.\u2019<\/p>\n

For Louis’ part, his most public previous relationship was with Eleanor Calder, whom he dated on and off from 2011 to 2022. <\/p>\n

During a split from Eleanor in 2015, Louis briefly dated Briana Jungwirth, who gave birth to the couple’s child, Freddie, on January 21, 2016.<\/p>\n

While neither Zara nor Louis have confirmed the romance rumours, things are certainly looking pretty cosy. <\/p>\n
