Jamie Oliver spoke of the time Harry Styles turned up for a viewing of his Primrose Hill abode when it went up for sale in 2016. The One Direction star appears to have been interested in the stunning £15 million townhouse until Oliver's daughter caused the singer to run in the other direction. "I’m not mates with Harry Styles, but I have met him a couple of times," the television chef said.
"One time was when I had put my house up for sale and he came for an inspection. He didn’t know that my daughter had a life-sized [cardboard] cut-out of him in her bedroom. "He just sort of looked at it, turned around and said, “Argh!” and left the house very quickly.
" Asked if the former One Direction singer, 30, pictured, bought their house, Jamie told MailOnline: "No he didn’t." Instead, the couple sold the north London house to the estate of a late porn baron for £15million. They had bought the eight-bedroom property for £8.
95million in 2015, so they made a whopping £6million profit. The house was bought by FIJPTC, a trustee company set up for the estate of Paul Raymond, a strip club owner and porn publisher who was known as the King of Soho. Jamie, 49, has three daughters with his wife, Jools, also 49, as well as two sons.
They now live at Spains Hall, a 16th-century mansion in Finchingfield, Essex, which they bought for £6million. Jamie does not disclose which of his daughters’ rooms contained the cut-out, but Jools once admitted that she had stalked Styles with Dais.
