Harry Styles: Dating Age Limit Set -- Potent Quotables

Neilson Barnard, Getty

"Any woman who is older than my mum -- who is 43 [I can't date]. I go out in London. Quite a lot of the girls I am photographed with are just friends, then, according to the papers, I have like 7,000 girlfriends." -- Harry Styles

One Direction hottie Harry Styles reveals that he has a limit to his love -- no higher than his mother's age! The young singer has been involved with an older woman before -- he dated 32-year-old "Xtra Factor" host Caroline Flack. The singer was only 17 at the time, which made their relationship even more taboo. But that's not the only older lady the teen's been involved with! This summer, reports surfaced that he'd had an affair with radio DJ Lucy Horobin -- who is not only 14 years his senior but also married! Harry doesn't seem to care about age, but maybe in the future he should pay more attention to whether his conquests are single or not.

"The singer was only 17 at the time, which made their relationship even more taboo."

Well, maybe taboo to some, but Britain's age of consent is SIXTEEN. UNLESS the older person is considered a "person of trust" (such as teacher or church leader) to the younger person (in which case, the younger person must be at least 18 before any sex is designated as "consensual"). Sure, in the previous relationship, the woman was the host of a TV show he appeared on, but I doubt that she would be considered a "person of trust" in the strictest sense.

The simple fact is that, as recently as 100 years ago, many upper-class families in the UK would marry off their 16 year old daughters to men who were 10, 15, even 25 years older than the girl--and this was not only common, it was expected.
