One Direction's Louis Tomlinson admits his girlfriend struggles with online abuse

Louis Tomlinson has admitted that his girlfriend Eleanor Calder is "intimidated" by the negative side of fame.

The singer has been dating the student for a number of months and she has become part of the One Direction family.

However, Calder has been the victim of Twitter trolls in the past and is under huge public scrutiny due to her association with the band.

Speaking to The Sun, Tomlinson admitted that his girlfriend finds it hard to cope with the pressure. He said:

"She gets pretty intimidated by it all. I mean, who wouldn’t? She can’t have Twitter or anything like that. I can’t expect her to deal with some of the stuff so easily. But I couldn’t be happier with her."

Speaking generally about online abuse, the 'Kiss You' man added:

"Things really bother me when they upset my family or Eleanor. I think I’m quite thick-skinned but if you’re going to do or say that, f*** you."
