One Direction heart-throb Harry Styles will search for a former Kiwi girlfriend when the hit band arrives for a trio of sold-out gigs this week.
The 18-year-old star confided to band mates Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik, Niall Horan and Liam Payne that he intends to visit the New Zealand family
of his mystery ex.
"He still carries a flame for her. It's a secret trip and the lads in the band have agreed to go too," a source told British showbiz magazine Now.
The news will come as a shock to Styles' recent girlfriend, UK television presenter Caroline Flack, 32. She has been in contact with the singer since their three-month romance ended in January and was thought to be trying to rekindle their relationship.
"Caroline and Harry have been texting a lot while the boys have been away on tour," the source added.
