Harry Styles' debut single What Makes You Beautiful is tipped for number one

One Direction's Harry Styles has had his fair share of girlfriends for his 17 years.

The curly-haired cutie first got a taste for the opposite sex at the age of 6 when he gave a family friend a teddy, but it wasn't until later on that he got into a proper relationship.

'I had a few girlfriends here and there when I was really young, but I didn't have an actual girlfriend until I was 12,' says Harry.

'Then I went out with a girl called Emilie, and for quite a long time considering how young we were. She's still a good friend now.'

Harry, who's currently single, then moved on to another lucky lady.

'I was also with a girl called Abi,' he tells The Sun.

'I guess you could say she was my first serious girlfriend.'
