Harry and Taylor had a brief romance between 2012 and 2013, during which time she wrote her album 1989, with fans long speculating that some of the songs were about their romance.

Last week, Taylor released the re-recorded version of her album, which features the track, Now That We Don’t Talk (Taylor’s Version) (From The Vault), with fans claiming her lyric ‘you grew your hair long’ in the second verse references Harry’s decision to grow out his hair following their split.

‘Harry styles did WHAT to his hair???’; ‘ Harry styles but no hair to style’; ‘I think the world fell apart after harry styles cut off his long hair’; ‘I do not buy Harry Styles shaving his hair off. Absolutely not. Not having it.

‘Harry styles stick your hair back on right now’; ‘Harry styles you have 48 hours to grow your hair out of a buzzcut. less than 48 hours even.’

Taylor recently got fans talking after she branded an unnamed ex-boyfriend – thought to be Harry – a ‘lying traitor’ in previously unreleased songs on the new version of 1989.

On one of the new songs, Is It Over Now, Taylor hits out at a former partner for being a ‘lying traitor’ and sleeping with a series of models after they broke up.

On another new song, called ‘S**t!’, Taylor sings about the public backlash she received for dating an unnamed heartthrob, with many speculating it could be Harry.

She sings: ‘I will pay the price you won’t / And if they call me a s**t, you know it might be worth it for once / And if I’m going to be drunk I might as well be drunk in love.

‘He’s waiting there. The sticks and stones they throw froze midair / ‘Everyone wants him, that was my crime / The wrong place at the right time . . . I break down and he’s ­pulling me in / In a world of boys, he is a gentleman.’
