Harry Styles and Emily Ratajkowski: Why grown up supermodel is his perfect woman (for now)

It's difficult to see how this could be any more perfect. Over the weekend all the planets aligned, providing us with the image of Harry Styles and Emily Ratajkowski snogging in a Tokyo street.

The two hottest, most universally lusted after celebrities on the scene right now hooking up. All is right with the showbiz world. The other part of this that's perfect? The timing.

Harry is fresh out of a serious, very grown up two year relationship with Olivia Wilde, ten years his senior, mother of two kids, going through a bitter, public custody battle with her ex.

Emily, meanwhile, filed for divorce from the father of her two year old son, film producer Sebastian Bear-McClard last September, after allegations that he was a "serial cheater".

Emily is absolutely ideal rebound material for Harry, and Harry is absolutely idea rebound material for Emily. Brilliant bonus detail: Harry was in Japan to perform his Love On Tour concert. How can you not admire that total commitment to his art?

The pair have been in each other's orbits for a while now. Way back in 2014, when still with One Direction, Harry told Mexican TV network Telehit that Emily was his celebrity crush.

Eight months ago, Emily went to Harry's Paris tour date – she was pictured singing along in the crowd, next to Olivia, which is almost as awkward as the photo of the two women hanging out together at the Vanity Fair Oscars party just two weeks ago.

Still, if there was ever a clause in Girl Code, that clause's name is Harry Styles. Clearly, this is an every woman for herself situation.

Stranger things have happened – especially when it comes to relationships between famous people – but Harry and Emily seem more likely to be a situationship (aka friends with benefits) than to evolve into a proper relationship.

Neither of them are probably up for jumping straight back into a serious commitment so quickly, and who knows what they actually have in common other than being – to quote Zoolander - really, really, really, ridiculously good looking.

In other words, on balance of probability, there's no need to be buying any millinery just yet. Which is lucky, really, as their celebrity portmanteau couple name is enough to make anyone's brain explode. Stylkowski? Ratajyles? Anything but Harrily, basically.

Whether or not this union goes the distance, we need to appreciate it for what it is. An inevitable chapter in the book of showbusiness, something that needed to be ticked off the celebrity list, and an unforgettable image of two extremely beautiful faces smooshed up against each other. Bravo, both.
