Tattooed Aussie Jam confirmed his romance with Harry last year with a series of loved-up photos.
Just months earlier, Harry had broken up with Joe Blackman - who then moved on with his former best friend Junaid Ahmed.
Confirming the relationship, Jam had snapped a selfie as he kissed Harry in a lift, while also sharing a picture of them holding hands.
But sadly, Harry has now confirmed their relationship has come to an end.
In a Q&A with fans on Instagram, Harry was asked: "Single? Taken? Situationship?"
Harry replied: "Very single haha!"
The Sun revealed in December that Harry had started dating Jam after jetting to Australia.
A source told us at the time: "Harry and Jam have been dating for a few months, he's really happy and he's got his family approval, including his cousin Amy Childs.
"His Towie co-stars are chuffed that he's found love again.
"They're enjoying some time in Australia together, where Jam is from. They've been going on dates over there and are very loved-up.
Towie's Harry Derbidge takes swipe at ex as he finally discovers Joe 'cheated' on him in emotional showdown
"Harry is looking forward to the future after the whole Towie saga and split from Joe and wants to put that behind him.
"He has healed now and is looking forward to what the future holds."
In March, Harry was caught snogging his Towie co-star Freddie Bentley during the cast's trip to Bali.
His relationship with Jam, meanwhile, had come just months after his bitter break-up with Joe Blackman.
The couple had begun dating in 2023 and their relationship played out on telly screens in Towie.
Harry Derbidge's relationship history
Harry Derbidge is a Towie OG, having joined the ITV reality show when he was just 16 in 2010.
In late 2013, Harry was linked to his Towie co-star Bobby Norris and they began dating in January 2014.
The couple's relationship only lasted six months, with them splitting amid rumours Harry had cheated with an ex-boyfriend while in Tenerife.
In 2017, Harry began dating Dean Rowland and things quickly got serious.
The couple got engaged but were forced to cancel their wedding twice due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Harry and Dean even confirmed they had begun the adoption process in 2019, as they were keen to have children.
But this was also held up by lockdown and eventually the couple split in October 2021.
Dean confirmed on social media at the time: "It's with a really heavy heart and absolute anxiety that I'm sharing this with you all."
He added: "There are no secret nor salacious events at the root of decision- just two best friends realising it's time to take some space and help each other live the most joyous, fulfilled lives possible."
In early 2023, Harry enjoyed a brief fling with Junaid Ahmed. However, they quickly decided they were better off as friends.
In July that year, Harry revealed he had moved on with a cryptic photo of his hand on a mystery man's leg.
It was later revealed to be Joe Blackman, who made his Towie debut as Harry's boyfriend two months later.
Harry and Joe dated for two years and even planned to tie the knot in Las Vegas. But in August last year, they split.
Weeks later, Harry was left heartbroken as it was revealed Joe had started dating Junaid.
In December 2024, Harry started dating Australian hairdresser Jam Gaud.
He was caught snogging Towie co-star Freddie Bentley in March 2025 and confirmed he had secretly split with Jam in June.
However, in August last year The Sun exclusively revealed how Harry and Joe had gone their separate ways, just weeks after vowing to marry in Las Vegas.
Then days later, we reported that Joe had moved on with Harry's best mate Junaid Ahmed, which left Harry heartbroken.
Dani Imbert later told Harry that Joe had "cheated" with Junaid before they had officially broken up.
The drama went on to play out in the ITVBe show.
In May this year, Junaid revealed he and Joe had taken the next step in their relationship by moving in together.
In a statement to The Sun, Junaid said; "So excited for this new journey for myself and Joe.. our dream Essex home.. we've been looking for a while now and ready to start this new chapter."

Larry Emdur set to make SHOCK purchase after 'outrageously stupid' video goes viral
Larry Emdur has revealed his next high-end purchase after going viral on social media. The beloved Channel Seven star took to Instagram last week to share a hilarious clip off the back of a rumoured romance with the Sunrise Cash Cow. The video showed Larry holding up a piece of paper that read: 'Just because I got kicked out of high school doesn't mean I'm stupid.' The Morning Show host had more to say with subsequent cards; however as he picked up each one, Larry neglected to bring it to the front of the pile, leaving only his first card visible. 'To all the haters and frootloopy fruitbats who looked at my last few posts and actually really truly thought I had an affair with the @sunriseon7 Cash Cow. How stupid do you think I am?? Here's my response,' he captioned the cheeky clip. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The post certainly resonated with friends and followers, racking up more than 28,000 likes. Responding to the reaction on Saturday, Larry revealed just how viral the post had gone, joking he may be about to swap the Seven studio for a swashbuckling life on the high seas. He shared a photo that showed a 30-foot-long pontoon boat that had been designed to look like a pirate ship. The unique item is currently for sale on Facebook Marketplace with the seller, who is based in Michigan, asking a princely AU$36,000 for it. Captioning the image, Larry revealed that his previous video had clocked up almost one million views since he posted on Monday. 'When my last post (that was outrageously stupid) hit 100k views I said to [my wife] Sylvie: "If that s*** post reaches 1 million views I'm going to buy this pirate ship",' Larry wrote. 'Ummmmm, better get my eye patch and hook ready.' Larry again proved his on-point social media game, with followers flooding the comments to praise his giggle-worthy posts. The post certainly resonated with friends and followers, racking up more than 28,000 likes. Responding to the reaction on Saturday, Larry revealed just how viral the post had gone, while revealing that he may be about to swap the Seven studio for a swashbuckling life on the high seas 'This is the best thing I've seen on the internet today,' one fan wrote. '@larryemdur pictures of you on your ship please and thanks. Eye patch optional.' Summing up the sentiment of many, another offered: 'You are so funny. Keep it coming.' The post comes after Larry shocked fans by revealing an unexpected romance with a Channel Seven co-star. The Gold Logie winner took to Instagram last Saturday to share a photo that showed him getting up close and personal with one of his colleagues. It was all in good fun, though, as Larry was merely recreating the viral footage of billionaire tech CEO Andrew Byron who was caught canoodling with his company's HR chief Kristin Cabot at a Coldplay concert in Boston. The affable TV veteran shared a side-by-side photo that showed the viral moment next to Larry looking very comfortable with the Sunrise Cash Cow. Larry, playing the part of the HR exec with aplomb, looked chuffed to be in the company of his bovine belle, who lovingly wrapped her hooves around the presenter's chest. He captioned the hilarious photo with a sincere apology to his wife of 30 years, writing: 'Sorry, Sylvie x.' The post was met with a flurry of laughing face emojis, with many praising the former Price Is Right host's sense of comic timing. Meanwhile, Larry is still very much happily married to Sylvie, with the couple celebrating their 30th wedding anniversary in December.

Powderfinger frontman Bernard Fanning pays tribute to beloved 'old friend and mentor' who suddenly died
Bernard Fanning has shared a sweet tribute to his 'old friend and mentor' who suddenly died. The Powderfinger frontman, 55, took to social media to remember Brisbane musician Andy McDonell, who passed away this week. He shared a photo of Andy to social media, alongside a heartfelt remembrance of 'one of the most talented people' he's ever known. 'I want to pay tribute to an old friend, mentor and all-round maniac Andy McDonell who passed away a few days ago,' Bernard began. 'One of the funniest, kindest and most extraordinarily talented people I have ever known. 'He was equal parts singer, songwriter, guitarist, thespian, comedian, poet, clown, and raconteur of the highest quality who was comfortable on stages of any size.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Continuing, Bernard went on to chart Andy's musical and artistic exploits, as well as his live collaborations with Powderfinger. 'He was first introduced to Powderfinger fans at the 1993 launch of our Transfusion EP where he and his friends from Omniscient Gallery performed an operation onstage that sprayed the audience with fake blood,' Bernard remembered. 'I think the resultant letter of complaint from an audience member's mother was the first of many we received. Thanks Macca. 'He was also a key part of our first ever acoustic show at Van Gogh's Earlobe in 1995 with partner-in-crime Ali St Ledger.' Bernard's tribute continued, with the My Happiness hitmaker admitting just how influential Andy had been in his own formative musical years. 'In the early days we played shows with him as a member of Damp Pants, Brasilia, Andy McDonell and the Contraption where he was the first performer I ever saw that gave himself over COMPLETELY to what he was doing,' he wrote. 'His warmth and good humour, not to mention his encyclopaedic songbook were an absolute inspiration. 'He's the only person I know who was equally comfortable with Tom Waits, Jacques Brel, ABBA and Led Zeppelin.' Rounding out the tribute, Bernard bade a fond farewell to his mate with: 'Most of all though, he was an absolute lord of the art of conversation and I will dearly miss chinwagging with him. Rest in Peace Macca. Love BF x' The post was met with an outpouring of condolences from friends and followers, with legendary Aussie punk rockers Frenzal Rhomb offering a simple: 'xoxoxox'. Bernard's Powderfinger bandmate Darren Middleton also responded with his own tribute to Andy. 'Beautifully written mate,' Darren wrote. 'He was always the "bar" to reach when we were finding our feet in music. 'A hugely talented singer/songwriter that I used to love watching on a Thursday night at The RE in Toowong and always nothing but friendly, funny and engaging in conversation. Xo' Andy's aforementioned 'partner in crime' Ali St Ledger was quick to thank Bernard for his tribute. 'Beautifully eloquent and spot on Bernard. Thank you,' she commented. Another follower jumped in, summing up the sentiment of many with: 'Beautifully said. Andy Mac was one of a kind, a true artist and a great human.' It comes as Powderfinger look likely to feature quite prominently in the Triple J Hottest 100 Australian Songs poll, which kicked off on Saturday. The indie-rock legends, who have snagged a formidable 18 ARIAs, certainly have no shortage of iconic tunes to pick from for the anticipated poll. But it is their 2000 single My Happiness which has the best chance of success, with online bookmaker Betr giving the multi-platinum tune the best odds to nab the top spot at 2.50. Meanwhile, TAB had the track These Days as an outside chance at 17.00.

Australian reality TV stars shocked by VERY surprising cameo in newly released Happy Gilmore 2 film
Two Australian reality TV stars have expressed their shock after making a very unexpected cameo in the newly released US film Happy Gilmore 2. Love Island Australia stars Kaylah Holmes, 23, and Hannah Steinfeld, 25, are featured in a scene in the Netflix movie - in which the characters watch LIA on TV. In the Adam Sandler movie, golfer John Daly (playing himself) and Christopher McDonald (reprising his role from part one) are seen watching a racy clip from LIA on a TV at Gilmore's house. In the movie, Hannah is seen on the TV flaunting her jaw-dropping bikini body as she takes an outdoor shower, while chatting to Kaylah. 'This girl's got some body on her!' Christopher's character remarks about Kaylah, to which John replies: 'Hey, we do not objectify women anymore.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The shock cameo caught the attention of both reality stars, with Kaylah sharing a clip from the movie to social media and writing alongside it: 'Definitely didn't expect to see this when watching Happy Gilmore 2,' while Hannah added: 'Iconic'. Kaylah and Hannah featured on series six of the Channel Nine reality TV series LIA in 2024. Love Island Australia is available to watch in America on Disney's streaming platform Hulu. The long-awaited sequel premiered on Netflix on Friday. It's been nearly three decades since the cast of Happy Gilmore initially hit the links. And three of the film's iconic stars looked almost unrecognisable on Tuesday, when they appeared on the Today show. Adam Sandler, Christopher McDonald, and Julie Bowen appeared on the show to discuss the highly-anticipated sequel to the hit 1996 comedy. Sandler, 58, who played the eponymous character, was sporting a shock of salt-and-pepper facial hair, looking a far cry from the fresh-faced 28-year-old who appeared in the original. In the Adam Sandler movie, golfer John Daly (right) is seen watching a racy clip from LIA on a TV at Gilmore's house His casual sense of style hadn't changed though, with the actor wearing a colourful floral-patterned shirt. Julie Bowen, 55, who played Happy's love interest Virginia Venit, also cut a distinctly different figure from her '90s self. In the original film, Julie sported a very era-appropriate short blonde bob. Julie, who is also known for her iconic role as Claire Dunphy on Modern Family, wore her much longer blonde locks down for the chat. She also cut a very stylish figure in a smart houndstooth skirt and matching jacket. Chris McDonald, meanwhile, has not changed markedly since his days playing the film's iconic antagonist Shooter McGavin. Now 70, Chris was sporting a very similar 'do' to the one he had in the comedy juggernaut, only now with a greyer hue. Speaking about the anticipated sequel, the trio admitted they weren't trying to break new ground, but rather play up the nostalgia angle. The sequel comes almost three decades after the original film debuted.
