Louis Tomlinson has spoken out about his frustration with persistent rumors suggesting a romantic relationship between him and his former One Direction bandmate, Harry Styles.
In a recent interview with a Brazilian outlet called G1, the singer shared that despite his efforts to dispel these rumors, they continue to circulate even though the band has been on a break since 2016.
Tomlinson explained, "What I realized a few years ago is that there is nothing I can say, there is nothing I can do to stop those who believe in this conspiracy. They are so connected to what they believe that they will not see the truth for what it really is. I’m sure many people look and find all these little conspiracies that happen in life interesting."

Louis and Harry, along with their bandmates Zayn Malik, Niall Horan, and Liam Payne, shot to fame after being formed by Simon Cowell on The X Factor in 2010.
The group enjoyed immense success before taking a hiatus in 2016 to pursue solo careers.

Reflecting on the impact of these fan theories, Tomlinson admitted, "I’d be lying if I said it didn’t irritate me a little, but it’s the nature of the job. There are times when it gets very personal. I have my son, Freddie. He is the most important person in my life, and occasionally, [these theories] end up addressing things that are a bit unfair. This is what we have now. There’s nothing I can do about it, nothing I can say to stop people from inventing what they want to invent. So, so be it."
Louis, who has a son named Freddie with his ex Briana Jungwirth, acknowledged the challenges of dealing with these rumors but recognized that there's little he can do to change people's minds.
