Louis Tomlinson Apologizes To His #1 Love Eleanor Calder After Baby News

He can’t say sorry enough! Although Louis Tomlinson is excited to become a father, he has vehemently apologized to his longtime lady love, Eleanor Calder, for having a baby with another woman.

Louis Tomlinson didn’t plan to take on daddy duties at just 23 years old. Regardless, he’s remained positive about impending parenthood as his one-time fling, Briana Jungwirth, 23, carries his child. While he’s happy about welcoming his bundle of joy, one dark cloud still floats over his head. Did he mess things up for good with his number one love, Eleanor Calder, 23? A source tells HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY that the One Direction star is begging for her forgiveness.

“[Louis has] been telling Eleanor that no one can compare to her,” a source tells HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY. “Louis feels like he let Eleanor down and for that he’s really sorry. He feels bad and knows how hard it’s been on her.” To hear more about Louis Tomlinson becoming a father to be, head over to iTunes and download the latest HollywoodLife podcast for free!

Before the pregnancy became public, Louis and Eleanor’s communication had faded away after a bitter breakup back in March. Now their relationship has understandably become more tense. Knowing that her ex is expecting with someone else must surely be a difficult pill to swallow for the Brit beauty.

“Eleanor feels betrayed, she knows Louis didn’t intentionally try to hurt her, but she still feels like she got hit in the stomach with the baby news,” our insider explains. “Neither of them really ever wanted their relationship to end in the first place.”

“Louis wanted to stay with Eleanor but also wanted his freedom. I guess he wanted to have his cake and eat it too. She pretty much gave him an ultimatum and he chose his freedom,” the source adds. “They were both very much in love.”

Eleanor Calder Felt Sick With Shock When Louis Tomlinson’s Mom Broke Baby News

So in love, in fact, that Eleanor literally couldn’t stomach the idea of someone else besides herself carrying Louis’ little one. After four years of a riveting romance, we can’t blame poor El for being bummed about it.

“Eleanor was shocked when she heard the news and kind of sick to her stomach,” a second source reveals to us. “It’s not like they had been broken up for long! Louis mom broke the news to her — they’re still very close. This is not the kind of news any ex-girlfriend wants to hear, especially when you dated someone for so long and then the next person who comes along ends up getting pregnant.” Maybe a few more (or perhaps, a LOT more) apologies are needed to be said on Louis’ part.
