Harry has described himself as 'very single' to fans
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.

"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."
