Yan Yan Chan, a 28-year-old stylist and blogger based in Sydney, sent the media into a frenzy amid rumours she was romantically involved with the singer-songwriter while he was Down Under for his “Love On Tour” tour.

Rumours intensified when Chan attended Styles’ Sydney show where she watched from a gold-class corporate box.

Styles, 29, who skyrocketed to fame aged just 16 as a member of the boy band One Direction, has had a solo career with hits such as “Golden” and “As It Was”.

Hong Kong-born Chan relocated to Sydney and started making a name for herself in 2009 in the fashion blogging scene. According to reports, she was just 16 when she started blogging.

“I started my blog when I was still in high school. I loved film, photography and art and wanted a space where I was able to express myself creatively outside the classroom,” she said in an interview on the Charles & Keith site when she was 25.
