Harry has confirmed the split on Twitter this morning
It's been a very public relationship and everyone seems to have an opinion. It can't be easy having a romance in the public eye.
However, Harry Styles confirmed this morning that he and Caroline have split up. The One Direction cutie was quick to clear up rumours that he had 'dumped' her and that he still has plenty of affection and respect for the TV presenter.
He tweeted: "Please know I didn't 'dump' caroline. This was a mutual decision. She is one of the kindest, sweetest people I know. Please respect that."
It was reported in the Sun that a source said: "It was never going to work and Harry knew that.
"The split happened very quickly after Harry made the decision to call it a day.
"He spoke to Caroline and explained that he thought it was best they break up. They've been spending a lot of time together so it's a blow to Caroline, who was serious about the relationship.
"After their romance became public it put a lot of pressure on young Harry.
"He'll be spending a lot of time in the US with the band this year so knows it will be hard to keep things on track."
One Direction are due to go the the States in a couple of days time in a bid to make it big across the pond. Having been nominated for a BRIT award and got two Top 5 singles under their belts, the pop heart-throbs are determined to make 2012 their year.
Things aren't looking too bad for Caroline too. After a successful stint on the Xtra Factor with Olly Murs, and as back-stage reporter at the National Television Awards earlier this week, the TV presenter is on a roll career-wise. She tweeted yesterday: "Prepping for some exciting events coming up that I'm hosting... The Instyle Beauty awards, London Fashion Weekend and lots more :)" .
It seems the pair just don't have time for a relationship at the moment. Will they reunite in the future, or will Harry soon be stealing someone else's heart? What do you think?
