Caroline and Harry were romantically linked back in 2011, having met one on the set of The X Factor.
Their 15 -year age gap lead to One Direction fans targeting Caroline.
Recalling the backlash, Caroline said: “It began to go wrong when Harry was pictured coming out of my house one morning.
“And once that was out, it was open season – anyone could say anything.

“In the street people started shouting at me ‘paedophile’ and ‘pervert'”.
She added in her autobiography Storm In A C Cup: “In the entertainment industry nobody asks what age you are.
“I’ve never felt I was much older than Harry anyway.
“I still feel 18 and probably act that way half the time — all those years in kids’ telly probably didn’t help…
“We were both single, we got on well and we had a laugh.”
