 After Taylor Swift, 23, and One Direction boy bander Harry Styles, 18, shared a kiss on New Year's Eve in New York City following Swift's Times Square performance, the couple jetted off for a romantic holiday in Virgin Gorda — but not everything went according to plan. 
 
 The couple arrived at Virgin Gorda — the third largest of the British Virgin Islands known for its "yacht clubs, quiet coves, safe anchorages and luxury resorts and villas"— on Tuesday, Jan. 1, and even posed for photos with fans at the local CocoMaya restaurant:

 But on Friday, Jan. 4, Swift caught the first flight out of Virgin Gorda and headed back to the states after getting into a heated argument with Styles that ended the two-month relationship, according to a source close to One Direction. 
 
 Here's a photo of Swift aboard a boat outside of U.S. customs on St. John, tweeted by a fellow island-goer:

 Styles, meanwhile, hopped over to Richard Branson's private Necker Island as soon as Swift departed. 
 
 "Richard Branson heard Harry was staying nearby so invited him to come check out Necker," the source tells Business Insider. "So when Taylor left for the states, Harry went to Branson's island for the day to let off some steam." 
 
 While Styles only stayed on Necker Island for a short while and later returned to Virgin Gorda solo, a source says "he did plenty of partying and was definitely enjoying himself while hanging out with guests. He returned to Virgin Gorda in the early morning hours looking like he had a raucous night." 
 
 Photos of Styles in a hot tub alongside Branson and other island guests have just hit the web:

 Apparently Styles had been meaning to check out Necker Island anyhow as he is currently scoping out locations for his 21st birthday bash ... in two-and-a-half years. 
 
 But the party was short-lived, as Styles headed back to the UK solo on Sunday where he was spotted taking photos with fans at Heathrow airport. 
 
 Swift has remained mum on the split, but did tweet this ominous message on Saturday:

 She hasn't posted anything since, but the singer's (whose lucky number is 13) previous tweet was full of hope:

 Looks like 2013 is going to be rockier for Swift than expected. 
 
 After taking a pre-Christmas couples ski getaway in Park City, Utah with besties Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez, today both couples are reportedly kaput as Bieber and Gomez also departed a New Year's getaway in Mexico earlier than expected. 
 
 Whether Swift and Styles are as on-again, off-again as their pals remains to be seen. 
 
 Inquiries to reps for Swift and Styles have not yet been returned.

 Unless you were asleep like a loser like me when the ball dropped on New Year's Eve -- or unless you were out doing something fun, as opposed to watching TV -- you probably saw Taylor Swift and Harry Styles full-on make-out session smack in the middle of Times Square. It was hot. It was steamy. It was the most PDA-y PDA ever. But did you know that these two crazy love birds might actually be getting married? I know. 
 
 Well, when I say they might be getting married, what I mean is: A source told Us Weekly magazine: "I can see them getting married in a week. Just going for it." So, yeah. It's not like a hall has been booked and a menu decided upon. But still -- I could see this happening. 
 
 We all heart Taylor Swift's love life. Because she loooooves love. And really, it's kind of sweet to watch her and all her boys. She's a pretty, young girl, filled with angst -- and a fat bank account. Why shouldn't she date whomever she wants to, whenever she wants to? She totally should! But here's the thing about Taylor's relationships that make them a little more fascinating than the average celeb romance: She seems to get obsessed with whomever she's dating, like, really quickly. That's how it looks from our vantage point, at least. And each relationship seems to get more intense than the last. Didn't she just buy a house next to Conor Kennedy a few months ago? 
 
 Taylor, Harry. Don't do it. Not yet. I know you both are all loved up right now, but please, wait it out a bit. You're both young, and really, your relationship is relatively new. It isn't a good idea. Not now. I don't doubt your feelings for each other, but who knows what you'll (Taylor) will be feeling in a few months time? Odds are, probably not this. 
 
 Do you think Taylor and Harry should pump the brakes a bit?

 The split of Taylor Swift and One Direction boy-bander Harry Styles came as a complete shock to vacationers on the British Virgin Islands, who’ve told Celebuzz the pair looked “so in love” — just hours before they had a relationship ending “almighty row.” 
 
 As we previously reported, the country-pop crooner, 23, and the young star, 18, split during their luxurious New Year’s vacation at Virgin Gorda, the third largest of the islands known for its “yacht clubs, quiet coves, safe anchorages and luxury resorts and villas”. 
 
 But within three days of the jaunt, Swift had caught a flight out of the Caribbean and headed home to the United States after getting into a heated argument with Styles. 
 
 “I can’t believe they broke up… this is so surprising; they looked so adorable together when we met them,”, a mother of four from Texas, who had dinner alongside the couple at CocoMaya restaurant in Virgin Gorda on Jan. 3, told Celebuzz. 
 
 “Harry was joking around with my husband and taking pictures with all of my girls; he was so sweet.” 
 
 The family from San Antonio spent time with the star-studded couple, while watching a “beautiful beach sunset” at the cocktail bar housed on a white sand beach. 
 
 “Virgin Gorda is such a beautiful place I don’t see how anyone could not just have a great time,” daughter Holly Held added, sharing an image of Swift posing with her and her sisters. 
 
 The excited sisters couldn’t believe the whirlwind romance of the couple known colloquially as “Haylor” had come to an abrupt end. 
 
 “When I heard they broke up I thought, ‘Oh no, my gosh.’ I can’t believe it. When I met them they looked so in love and were such a cute couple,” Holly said. 
 
 “I would never have guessed a break-up would come judging by their body language. 
 
 “Taylor constantly had her head on Harry’s shoulder. They were very close to each other the entire time and constantly leaning into each other. 
 
 “My sisters and I even saw them share a kiss… It’s hard to understand, really.” 
 
 Before the family had their chance to meet unlucky-in-love Swift — who previously has datedand– they had been listening to her music, ironically. 
 
 “She was so nice to us and nicer than we expected,” sister Hailey Held told Celebuzz. 
 
 “When we walked into the restaurant we couldn’t believe Taylor and Harry were right in front of us, sitting on a swing together, smiling and looking super cute.” 
 
 But it apparently didn’t last. 
 
 Swift Tweeted suspicion of a split on Satuday when she posted a lyric from her song, “I Knew You Were Trouble” — a ballad said to be about Styles. 
 
 He, meanwhile, hopped over to Richard Branson’s private Necker Island soon after Swift departed, according to a photo which has hit the web.

– Another day, another guy for Taylor Swift to break up with and then write sad songs about. Yes, the singer has split with Harry Styles of UK boy band One Direction, the Daily Mail reports. Swift, 23, and Styles, 18, were on vacation in the Virgin Islands over the New Year's holiday and "had an almighty row," according to an obviously British source. Swift ended up flying home alone, early, on Friday. On New Year's Eve, the couple had been recorded making out at midnight in Times Square. They had only been dating about a month, but we doubt that will impact Swift's songwriting ability. Perhaps a hint at a future lyric: Her first tweet of 2013 came on Saturday, when she posted, "... 'til you put me down." As for Styles, he spent his time after Swift left partying in the islands, sources tell Business Insider. Click to see pictures of the couple in happier times.
