Neither party went public with the romance, or breakup for that matter, but they were photographed smooching in a Target parking lot in August and if that’s not the telltale sign of an advanced relationship, I don’t know what is.
The closest either one got to public flirtation was Horan playfully (platonically?) declaring love for “Hails” on her birthday last year via Instagram:
That differs from this year. Via People:
“Speculation of their split escalated when fans and followers noticed that Horan did not publicly wish Steinfeld a happy birthday this year on Dec. 11.”
Scandalous. Absolutely scandalous.
Mourning this relationship is not worth it. Consider this coping mechanism instead: Hailee will go back to loving herself and only herself.
Niall and his naturally brunette hair will play ball.
