hi Gina, I was wondering if I could ask your thoughts on Louis’s friends?
ie Oli, Calvin, etc...
thanks!
Back in the band days, they were all kind of gross and trying to hook up with as many fans as possible. When that came to light, they disappeared for a bit. But I heard lots of stories about Calvin, in particular, from those years. He’s also the source of one of my favorite bits of Larry “proof.”
Oli has obviously matured and is Louis’ personal assistant and has made a career doing that. He seems like a really solid person in Louis’ life.
Stan was Louis’ bestie in the early days. Fans loved him, from what I remember. And he hung out with Harry, as well. From what I recall, he went off to uni, in think he became a therapist (?), and got married.
“Hot” Luke (or as I like to call him, mediocre Luke) is a favorite of antis. There’s a whole group who think he and Louis hooked up/dated. I’ve heard that he was used sort of like Brad/Nick/Xander—to make people who clocked Louis’ queerness question Larry. However, I’ve only ever heard rumors about him with girls. I also heard he did something to piss Harry off and, as the person who told me said, “he never recovered.” 😅 He’s supposedly living in Canada with his girlfriend now.
Nizam has shown himself to be homophobic, antisemitic, and misogynistic. I really don’t get why Louis so publicly involves him in things like his documentary.
Dave Allen I’d someone Louis went to school with, is still Greg’s with, but I can’t recall if he was ever on tour with them. He was sort of separate from the Oli/Calvin/Luke group. He’s a professional boxer and he and Louis support often each other online.
I don’t know much about the rest of them. But here’s my LOUIS’ FRIENDS tag.
