For thousands of fans worldwide, the question of what Harry Styles looks for in a partner has been a topic of intrigue. The former One Direction star once shared his preference for “quirky” women, stating during a 2011 interview, “I love a bit of cheek, and I don’t like girls to look the same as other girls.” Fast forward to today, and Styles, now 31, seems to have found a match in actress, singer, and director Zoe Kravitz.
The couple was recently spotted in Rome, igniting rumors of a budding romance. Kravitz, 36, known for her cool and edgy persona, appears to fit the mold of Styles’s ideal partner. A close friend of Styles commented, “Zoe is just Harry’s type. She’s cool, edgy, and really, really interesting. They are well-matched and apparently get on very, very well.”
From Past to Present: Styles’s Romantic Journey
Styles’s romantic history is as star-studded as his music career. His previous relationships include high-profile names such as Olivia Wilde, Taylor Swift, and Kendall Jenner. Despite the fame and beauty of his past partners, none have lasted. “Harry might be super famous, but underneath it all he is pretty down-to-earth,” said a friend, suggesting that high-maintenance celebrity relationships may not suit him.
Styles’s relationship with Olivia Wilde lasted nearly two years, beginning in 2020. The couple met on the set of “Don’t Worry Darling,” which Wilde directed. However, the relationship ended amid claims of Styles’s alleged kiss with co-star Florence Pugh and disagreements over where to settle down.
Zoe Kravitz: A Match for Styles?
Kravitz, daughter of musician Lenny Kravitz and actress Lisa Bonet, brings her own history of high-profile relationships. She was previously linked to Channing Tatum, Noah Centineo, and was married to actor Karl Glusman. Like Styles, Kravitz is ambitious and multifaceted, having made her directorial debut with “Blink Twice” in 2024.
Their shared interests and similar backgrounds could be the foundation for a lasting relationship. “Zoe definitely has more of a chance at settling down with Harry than any of his exes,” said a source close to Styles. “She is exactly what he wants in a woman, and they are just so similar.”
Looking Ahead: A Future Together?
While the romance is still in its early days, those close to Styles hope Kravitz might be “the one” to help him fulfill his dream of settling down. “Three out of five of One Direction are dads – it’s just Harry and Niall who aren’t,” noted a friend. “His friends often say he would make the best dad.”
The couple’s recent appearances together, including a cozy dinner in London and their Roman holiday, suggest a deepening connection. “Harry and Zoe were tucked away in a corner in Rita’s and were snogging like teenagers,” a fellow diner revealed, indicating the pair’s comfort and chemistry.
As Styles continues to evolve from boy band heartthrob to solo artist and cultural icon, his personal life remains a topic of fascination. Whether this new relationship will lead to the family life Styles reportedly desires remains to be seen, but for now, fans and friends alike are hopeful.
“Zoe definitely has more of a chance at settling down with Harry than any of his exes,” said a source close to Styles.
In the world of celebrity romances, where relationships often burn brightly and fade quickly, the pairing of Styles and Kravitz offers a promising narrative of two individuals finding common ground amidst the spotlight.
