Zara McDermott made sure Louis Tomlinson didn’t miss The Prodigy as the pair took in the festival’s headliner together. Zara played the good girlfriend even though the electronic punk rockers didn’t appear to be her cup of tea. She looked a bit more subdued during the high tempo performance at the end of her first ever Glastonbury as the former 1D star let his hair down. Louis loved the incredible act and the pair were joined by his sister Lottie, 26, and her fiance Lewis Burton. It looked like Zara’s relationship with Louis – who she started dating earlier this year just weeks after her split from boyfriend of five years Sam Thompson – is definitely hotting up. A source told The Mirror: 鈥淟ouis was loving The Prodigy. He dragged her along to the Other Stage and had a ball dancing to their hits. Zara danced along before leaving hand in hand with Louis before the set ended.鈥 Zara and Louis have been careful not to pose for any photos together and the new couple are yet to make their relationship Instagram official. But she has now met the singer’s family and posed for pics earlier in the day with his little sister, suggesting she’s already got her seal of approval. They are still trying to keep things quiet, despite numerous appearances out and about. It’s emerged the pair aren’t even camping together at Glasto – with glam Zara preferring to stay off site instead while Louis partied with his mates. He’s reportedly even put up a tent that’s just for booze. Another source told the Mirror : “Louis is determined to make it a weekend to remember and has planned everything with military like precision – including making sure enough booze is available. He has his own tent – and one just for the drinks. Everyone is saying it鈥檚 a nice break for him and Zara, but it鈥檚 a great way also for Zara to meet his mates. It will definitely be a boozy one and not a particularly romantic one.” The pair first struck up romance rumours earlier this year as they were photographed on a cosy date in Suffolk in March, just a few weeks after Zara’s split from her long-term boyfriend Sam Thompson . Louis and Zara then enjoyed a cosy trip together in Los Angeles, with Zara finally unveiling her romance on Instagram as the pair enjoyed a brunch date together. Since then, it appears their romance has continued to blossom as Zara was recently seen supporting Louis in Costa Rica. Sam recently said he ‘panicked鈥 ahead of possible run-in with Louis at Soccer Aid this month. Sam admitted he felt a wave of panic at the thought of a potential run-in with Louis during Soccer Aid with behind-the-scenes tensions bubbling long before the match. The reality star revealed he was caught off guard months ago when asked how he鈥檇 feel sharing a pitch with the One Direction singer. 鈥淚 panicked and thought, 鈥業 don鈥檛 have this,鈥欌 he explained on his Staying Relevant podcast. “So I said, 鈥業t鈥檚 not about me and Louis. It鈥檚 not about who鈥檚 dating who – it鈥檚 UNICEF, it鈥檚 charity.鈥 鈥滶veryone鈥檚 here for the same reason: to raise money. And if he鈥檚 got anything about him, which I鈥檝e heard he does, he鈥檒l say the same.鈥 Sam and Zara, who met in 2019 after she shot to fame on Love Island , broke up briefly before getting back together but called time on their relationship for good in December. She鈥檚 since moved on with Louis, though the new couple have kept things quiet publicly 鈥 with Louis only briefly featuring on Zara’s Instagram during a romantic trip in the US earlier this year.
