"But I think it's best to clear it up. So yeah, we had a short-lived thing that was just a bit of fun. Then we went off in our opposite directions. "Harry and I had a laugh," she added. "It was brief, but fun, and then we moved on. We haven't spoken in a while – he's one of the most famous people in the world now. "The pair were first linked back in 2012 after they were spotted spending time together in London.

Just before, Emily had tweeted about being a fan of the X Factor contestant. "Does Harry from One Direction HAVE to be 16?!" she wrote. "Let's pretend he's 18 at least! Then there would only be One Direction he would be going… to the bedroom!"Harry has dated several high-profile women since he shot to fame in 2010's X Factor.
