Amelia Woolley is the girlfriend of Niall Horan, but how long have they been dating and how did they meet?
Niall Horan made it undoubtedly clear with his song 'Heaven' that he is absolutely smitten with girlfriend Amelia Woolley!
The One Direction star sent fans into meltdown when he first stepped out with his new girlfriend, the pair like to keep their relationship out of the limelight but even so, it's obvious just how loved up they are!
The couple is thought to have begun their relationship in 2020, but Directioners are keen to know more about their love story.
From how they met to how long they’ve been dating, here’s Niall and Amelia’s relationship timeline...
Niall rarely talks about his relationship but he briefly spoke about Amelia in his cover interview with Cosmopolitan UK in 2023, where he was asked how romantic he is.
He said: “I think so. I wouldn't say I’m like ‘rose petals on the floor’ type of romantic, but I'm good at caring. I'm good at making dinners and the day-to-day stuff."
When asked about love languages, he added, "I’m good at words of affirmation and I’m good at touch.”
Niall Horan reveals how new album came together
Niall dropped the lead single from his third studio album in February 2023 and it's the most loved-up song he's released to date!
'Heaven' immediately had fans theorising that the track was about Amelia, the song is littered with charming lines throughout hinting towards how much he cares for his girlfriend.
Lined from, "How I obsessively adore you" to "I could die in your kiss, No it doesn't get, doesn't get, Better than this," had everyone swooning over their love!
According to sources at the Irish Mail on Sunday, Amelia joined Niall at his hometown for Christmas back in 2021.
The couple were spotted having a cosy evening at a pub in Dublin before reportedly joining his family in Mullingar.
They're also thought to have spent New Year's Eve together after a fan account tracked down a video of Niall's unmistakable voice enjoying a firework display.
Niall and Amelia made their first red carpet appearance together in September 2021, when he and his Modest! Golf co-founder Justin Rose put on a music and sport event in Watford.
It was the first time the stunning couple made an official joint appearance and to say they look great together would be a huge understatement.
Niall and Amelia are yet to share a photo of one another on Instagram, aka the ultimate confirmation of a serious relationship, but Amelia had already posted the ‘Slow Hands’ singer on her Snapchat when they started dating, which is just as big of a statement.
In a black-and-white selfie uploaded to Amelia’s profile, the couple can be seen smiling at the camera as the fashion buyer holds a glass of wine in hand.
They were also seen with their arms around each other at a fourth of July party that same year.
Niall and Amelia reportedly got to know each other before lockdown, but as restrictions eased in May and June 2020 and they were able to meet up more often they grew even closer.
When news of their romance emerged on MailOnline in July 2020, it was reported they’d been dating for two months.
Fast forward to 2024 and the pair have already surpassed their fourth anniversary!
It’s not yet known how the pop star and the designer shoe expert met but, given that Amelia has worked for luxury brands like Nicholas Kirkwood, they may have met at an industry event or through mutual contacts.
Amelia is believed to have moved to Kensington for her job in 2020, and Niall spent lockdown in his London apartment.
