He also slammed viscous trolls who have targeted his family, his eight-year-old son Freddie and even his late mum Johannah Deakin, who sadly died in 2016 aged 43 after a a battle with leukaemia.
Louis took to his X account and wrote: '"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 on 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 off 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 hand.
Zara wore a skin-tight sky blue top and wore her hairs 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.

Brit tried 'cheapest full English in Benidorm' and is left floored

A Brit who travelled to Benidorm was left 'amazed' by the full English breakfast he tried for less than £4 at a popular restaurant in the area A British bloke was left "amazed" after tucking into Benidorm's"cheapest" full English breakfast, costing less than £4. The Spanish town, nestled in Alicante province, is a beloved getaway for many Brits, and 32 year old Louis Grier has embraced it as his new abode. ‌ Louis, who has settled in the sun-drenched coastal resort, recently stumbled upon an irresistible deal for the quintessential full English brekkie priced at just £3.90. He keeps his 43.2K TikTok followers in the loop with regular updates about his Benidorm escapades, offering advice and insights to those pondering a holiday or a move to the area. ‌ In one of his latest TikTok clips, which has garnered over 58K views, Louis popped into Mariano's, a renowned eatery in Benidorm, eager to sample their version of the classic full English breakfast. ‌ At the start of the video, he addresses his audience, saying: "Today, I am going to Mariano's to see what the English breakfast is like there. "I've had the Spanish breakfast - it's not bad, it is a Spanish restaurant, after all - but I'm going to try the full English breakfast. "They've got an offer on for €4.50 (£3.90). Mariano's is great for many things but I've never really had breakfast here, so let's try it." ‌ Regrettably, the meal fell short of Louis's hopes. He displayed his plate to viewers, showing two slices of Spanish toast topped with two fried eggs, accompanied by a single sausage, two mushrooms, a tomato, one hash brown and two bacon rashers. After sampling the food, he admitted he "wasn't expecting much for €4.50" but declared the "breakfast was absolutely awful", describing it as among "the worst" he's "ever had" in Benidorm. ‌ He went on to explain: "I visited Mariano's, a renowned restaurant in Benidorm. "It is celebrated for its exceptional chicken, considered by many to be the finest in Spain, and is also highly regarded as the best take away in Benidorm. "Considering its popularity among both English and Spanish speakers, this establishment has consistently provided excellent food to British patrons for numerous years, and I have thoroughly enjoyed many wonderful takeaway meals. ‌ "However, I regret to say that the breakfast was quite unappetising, and I was unable to eat it – it was that bad." Providing further insight into why he found the breakfast so disappointing, he continued: "It tasted undercooked and of very low quality. "I would maybe go back but only for its famous chicken." ‌ Louis's footage attracted hundreds of responses, with viewers eager to share their own opinions. One viewer commented: "That's all I've tried there. It's terrible, so I've never been back. The place is a dump." ‌ Another individual remarked: "Looked ok for the price", and a third concurred, stating: "What was wrong with it, everything looked fine, that's not a fair review". A different commenter noted: "Mariano's has gone right down hill to what it used to be". Yet another person shared their experience: "I once had one from there, it was terrible", while another countered: "Still the best place for chicken. And their garlic bread is to die for!".

Woman avoids 'holiday packing stress' with Shein trick that 'makes so much room'

One TikTok user claimed 'this will be a game changer' If you're getting ready to jet off on holiday with a whole new wardrobe, a TikTok user suggests keeping the packaging from any Shein orders that arrive for a handy reason. Laura, known as @ on TikTok, shared her smart packing trick last summer. And it seems many Shein customers are planning to follow suit for their holidays this year. ‌ Rather than folding clothes and struggling to accommodate every potential outfit, Laura offered a "genius" solution that allowed her to fit an entire wardrobe into her suitcase with ease. Each outfit was neatly stowed away in a zip-up Shein package bag, granting her 'heaps of extra suitcase space '. ‌ In the clip, she said: "You can shove [the packages] in and just push all the air out. It makes so much room." In the caption, she explained: The best packing hack!!!!! I feel like an organised queen!!!!" ‌ She continued: "This is a game changer and squishes your clothes together so you can fit more in." During the video, she showed off how she'd sorted her clothes into categories, including pyjamas, shorts, dresses, and tops. In one pouch, she managed to stuff 12 swimwear sets. After packing 11 Shein parcels worth of clothing in her case, Laura still had room to fit toiletries and other essentials for her trip. Many people in the comments were impressed by her 'holiday packing hack'. ‌ One said: "What a good idea!" Another added: "I always do this. Shein bags are great. I used to buy A4 zip folders before Shein came along!" A third wrote: "I've just dug out all my SHEIN bags for my holiday. This will be a game changer!" Someone else suggested: "Could you not just use packing cubes? It's basically the same thing." Some leapt to Laura's defence, adding: "The air holes make them easy to flatten on top of each other. No way you'd get that with packing cubes!" A fifth asked: "Do they not get really creased?" Laura responded: "No because they are rolled up just like they would be in my case - if anything it's better because it keeps them together." Someone else offered a great use for your bags once you arrive on holiday too. They said: "SHEIN bags are also fab for keeping stuff dry in your beach bag/ pool bag! Love them!" Someone else replied: "Wow! I need to stop throwing mine away." They added: "Who knew they could be so useful!" Most Shein orders come inside one of these bags, so it's worth stocking up to get your money's worth. Alternatively, you could buy similar ziplock bags yourself from places like Amazon if you don't shop from Shein.

'I'm a world record traveller but there are two islands left on my bucket list'

Lexie, who has 1.5 million followers on Instagram, sat down with the Mirror to share the two islands she is desperate to visit, on the same day Expedia released the 2025 Island Hot List A record-breaking traveller has revealed the two islands she is desperate to visit. Lexie Limitless is certifiably well-travelled. The record-breaking adventurer had visited every country on Earth by age 21, earning her multiple Guinness World Records. If that weren't enough globe-trotting, she recently became the first person to circumnavigate the Earth in an electric vehicle, a project with Ford called Charge Around The Globe. Now, the 27-year-old has teamed up with Expedia to share her pro tips and island hacks. 'There's something magical about island life. Time slows down, the air feels thick yet fresh, and the locals' connection to nature is undeniable. Islands are little pockets of culture and tradition surrounded by endless ocean, which makes for the perfect environment to escape your routine,' Lexie explained. 'After a very hectic past few years, I'm not surprised Expedia is seeing a spike in island travel. I think people are craving a real escape, and islands offer exactly that. A lot of people, myself included, crave feeling secluded and immersed in an entirely different, slower culture. Islands check every box, whether you're looking for adventure, wellness, or just to disconnect.' Lexie, who has 1.5 million followers on Instagram, sat down with the Mirror to share the two islands she is desperate to visit, on the same day Expedia released the 2025 Island Hot List. Koh Samui, Thailand Named the best island for affordable luxury by Expedia, Koh Samui has had a big year. It featured as the backdrop for the latest season of White Lotus, capturing viewers with its white sand beaches, amazing hotels, and waving palm trees just as much as the show did with its plot. "I've really wanted to travel there since White Lotus came out. I have been to Thailand many times, backpacking, and it is one of the most affordable backpacking destinations. When people ask where to go, I always say 'see Asia and Thailand'," Lexie said. As well as plenty of beautiful spots by the beach and pools to relax, Koh Samui offers popular attractions including the Big Buddha Temple (Wat Phra Yai), Ang Thong National Marine Park, and Fisherman's Village. The abundance of markets and waterfalls should also be on your to-do list. Sardinia, Italy Not a million miles away geographically or landscape-wise from the filming location of season two of White Lotus (Sicily), the large Italian island floating in the middle of the Mediterranean took Lexie's spot as the second place on her island bucket list. "Sardinia, definitely. I haven't made it there yet, but Italy is one of my favourite countries to travel to. I have been to Italy 5 to 10 times, but there are so many places I haven't been to yet," she said. There's a huge amount in Sardinia to keep you busy. Popular options include visiting the Costa Smeralda for luxury and nightlife, exploring the Maddalena Archipelago for sailing and beaches, and discovering the ancient ruins of Nora or Su Nuraxi. Lexie's advice for making the most of trips to such places is not to plan too hard and to keep your mind open to the possibility of adventure. 'Always keep your mind open to unexpected adventures. With so many travel guides and TikTok showing what's going on at each island, you can get caught up in having that perfectly curated plan,' she explained. The below destinations have made it onto Expedia's global Island Hot List: Aruba (Best for Year-Round Sunshine) Bali, Indonesia (Best for Relaxation) Dominican Republic (Best for Adventure) Fiji (Best for Community) Jamaica (Best for Culture) Maldives (Best for Romance) Oahu, Hawaii (Best for Surfing) Paros, Greece (Best for Nightlife) Sardinia, Italy (Best for Food Lovers) Koh Samui, Thailand (Best for Affordable Luxury)
