LOUIS Tomlinson has announced he's quit X after relentless and "hurtful" trolls forced him off the site.
The One Direction star, 33, has blamed "conspiracy chat" around his relationship with Zara McDermott as the reason behind him leaving the platform.
He also slammed viscous trolls who have targeted his family, his eight-year-old son Freddie and even his late mum Johannah Deakin, who died in 2016 aged 43 after a battle with leukaemia.
Louis wrote on X: '"The last few months have made it impossible to be on here.
"All the conspiracy chat about my relationship, my son or even stretching sometimes to opinions on my Mum.
"It's just too much and too hurtful for me to see! Thank you to everyone who always has my back!"
Louis shares his son with ex-girlfriend Briana Jungwirth. They welcomed Freddie in 2016.
Louis has been dating documentary-maker Zara, 28, since March, just two months after she split from Sam Thompson.
In May, Louis returned to his X profile to promote his new track, but admitted it felt like a strange place.
He said at the time: "Haven't really used this (X) much for a while. Seems to be such a weird place these days...
"Anyway feeling really good about the next record. Staying positive."
Louis' decision to remove himself from the platform comes just a few days after proud girlfriend Zara was spotted singing from a private box at his concert in Zurich.
A TikTok video of Zara singing and dancing has done the rounds online - much to the delight of fans.
She was all smiles as she shook her hips from side to side with a drink in her hand.
Zara wore a skin-tight sky blue top and wore her hair in loose curls.
She and her friend had VIP lanyards around their necks and snapped away at Louis' performance.
The couple's relationship appears to be going from strength to strength since The Sun revealed their secret romance in March.
They went Instagram official with a cute photo from their time at Glastonbury.
Sharing a series of snaps from the weekend, he captioned the update: "Glasto 25" - including a group one with Louis cosied up next to Zara.
She wrote: "Best weekend ever."
The Sun revealed how Louis was spotted supporting Zara at her charity talk at the famous festival.
The Love Island star turned BBC documentary maker was part of a serious panel with Refuge charity and Louis was watching her.
The talk, entitled How to Create Societal Change: Tackling Violence Against Women and Girls took place on the small Information stage.
An onlooker said: "Zara looked a bit nervous but kept smiling at Louis and he made sure he was in her eyeline and was beaming back at her.
"It was really sweet to watch, they certainly seem very smitten with each other.
"He disappeared just before it ended so he could go back stage and be reunited with her, but it was heartwarming to see him being a dutiful, loved up boyfriend."
Speaking after the talk Zara said: "I’m not camping but I’m absolutely loving it.
"I literally just got here just before this talk so this is my first day.
"I’m staying here for a few days with some friends. Yeah Louis is here too."The pair have also enjoyed a holidays in Costa Rica together, including a trip to a secluded villa where Louis was recording music.
They were also seen holding hands and kissing in Malibu, California.
