One Direction star Niall Horan is officially single again after splitting from his Irish sweetheart Zoe Whelan.
The 19-year-old had been on-off with the Dublin babe since bringing her to his brother’s wedding in March.
But Niall has now told Zoe, 18, the relationship over – just as her modelling career goes from strength-to-strength.
Zoe has continually refused to chat about their relationship – despite being offered big money for a tell-all interview by publications around the world.
A source said: “It is all over for Niall and Zoe – and it is completely because of his side of things.
“Obviously, it was always going to be hard to have an ongoing relationship when his job has him travelling around so much.
“But there’s been no push from Niall to keep things going at all and has told Zoe it is over by completely blanking her.
“Over the past few weeks her modelling career has become huge, but Niall hasn’t been in contact to say well done. She hasn’t even had a text from him, let alone a call, for nearly two weeks.
“Out of respect to Niall, she refused to say a word to anyone about the relationship – even when there was money on the table to spill the beans as she knew it would be over then.
“But it seems just doing her job is too much for 1D’s people, who appear to have pressured Niall to cut all ties with Zoe. It’s cruel the way he’s done it, and she’s obviously a bit devastated it’s over.”
Their relationship had first been on the rocks after it emerged Niall, from Mullingar, Co Westmeath, spent the night with Made In Chelsea star Louise Thompson after wooing her with flirty texts and calls.
At the time, the Kiss You favourite promised to take Andrea Roche model Zoe on a number of dates to make up for the heartbreak but hasn’t followed through.
It comes after Zoe revealed she gets constant death threats from One Direction fans angry by the idea they were together.
She said: “I still get hate mail and death threats.
“I’m strong though and stuff like that just makes you stronger.
“To think that people spend so much time being so negative, writing nasty things and doing mock-up photographs and setting up haters of Zoe Whelan pages, it’s really sad.”
