Harry Styles insists he’s not dating anyone at the moment.

The One Direction heartthrob has been romantically linked with 32-year-old Caroline Flack since they kissed at a party in October.

But the teenage singer doesn’t consider The Xtra Factor presenter, who’s been enjoying a New Year break in India, his girlfriend.

‘I’m single,’ Harry, 17, told Real Radio – with a little hesitation – just before Christmas.

But despite the 1D singer’s declaration, Caroline has defended her close bond with Harry.

The Xtra Factor host was inundated with threatening Tweets when reports first emerged of her closeness to Harry, who’s 15 years her junior.

‘What’s hard for me to get my head around is people saying it’s disgusting,’ she exclusively told Now in December.

‘I don’t think it is.

‘I think that two people who get on is quite nice.’
