- Fans Resurface Louis Tomlinson Love Island Comments Amid Zara McDermott Dating News after photos obtained by tabloids seemingly confirm the pair are in fact dating following Zara’s split from Sam Thompson at the start of the year.
- Fans online are sharing an old interview clip of the One Direction star where he talks about Love Island, the show Zara found fame on back in 2018.
- The One Direction star stated in a 2020 interview that he had no time for Love Island, that he absolutely despised the show, and that it was a tragic show.
Louis’ fans have brought back his old comments about Love Island in light of the recent news about Zara McDermott dating him. The idea of Zara and Louis being an item took everyone by surprise, sparking jokes from fans like,
“I’m here to set the record straight. Louis isn’t dating Zara, he’s married to me!”
But, as it turns out, photos obtained by the tabloids suggest that the two are indeed seeing each other, especially after Zara’s unexpected breakup with Sam Thompson earlier this year.

As the situation shifts toward this surprising couple, fans have been digging up any connections between them prior to this revelation. Recently, an old interview clip featuring the One Direction star made waves on social media, where he shared his thoughts about Love Island—the show that launched Zara to fame back in 2018 during its fourth season. In a 2020 interview with Z100 New York, Louis expressed,
“I’ve got no time for Love Island. I absolutely despise that show.”
However, fans have pointed out that the year he was actively tweeting about the show coincided with Zara’s season. Posts from X (formerly known as Twitter) from 2018 are now being shared again, including one that reads:
“Can I just say, thank f— love island is over!”
Now, five years later, it seems Louis’ perspective on Love Island has changed, as reports indicate that he has been able to “put a smile back on” Zara’s face after her split with Sam.
A source shared with MailOnline:
“Zara is so happy. It’s still early days for her and Louis, but everything’s going well between them.”
They added,
“Zara is loving being treated to nice dinners and is enjoying the excitement of dating someone new again.”
