Wilde and Styles’ romance has left us all green with envy this summer. From PDA pics to luxury getaway snaps, their love affair is something out of a romance movie.
More recently, Page Six caught Olivia snapping pictures of Harry as he performed perhaps one of his greatest songs of all time: Cherry.
On the surface, it all seems good and well, until you realise that Cherry was written about Styles’ gorgeous French model ex-girlfriend, Camille Rowe.
Previously addressing the meaning behind the song, the 27-year-old musician said: “I wanted [‘Cherry’] to reflect how I felt then. I was feeling not great. It’s all about being not great.”
The album version also features a voicemail from Rowe.
It seems as though Olivia loves the song as much as we do!

Who is Camille Rowe?
31-year-old Camille Chrystal Pourcheresse, otherwise known as Camille Rowe, is a French-American model and actress.
According to WWD, Rowe grew up in Paris until the age of 21 before moving to New York and, later, Los Angeles.
Notably, the model dated Watermelon Sugar singer Harry Styles from 2017 to 2018. The two reportedly met through Rowe’s good friend Alexa Chung.
It’s not completely clear why the two split but, as per Grazia, Styles’ hit Falling alludes to some form of cheating, judging by the lyrics: “there’s no one to blame but the drink and my wandering hands.”
After the breakup, Camille went on to be the muse for many of Harry’s songs, including Cherry.
It’s also speculated that Watermelon Sugar could have been written with Camille in mind, given that the model told ELLE that ‘In Watermelon Sugar’ by Richard Brautigan is one of her favourite books.
Outside of her whirlwind romance with Harry Styles, the 31-year-old has modeled for incredibly high-brow names, such as Playboy, Victoria’s Secret, and Ralph Lauren.
Rowe also has a super prominent social media presence, boasting over 660k followers on Instagram, where her handle is @fingermonkey.
Who else has Harry Styles dated?
Styles might have been left heartbroken by Camille Rowe, but it looks like he has moved on now.
The Adore You singer is currently involved with actress Olivia Wilde.
Harry has previously been linked to Caroline Flack, Emily Atack, Taylor Swift, Kendall Jenner, Nadine Leopold, Sara Sampaio, Georgia Fowler, and Tess Ward.
