Most people know who Harry Styles is. If not, they know about One Direction and that he was in the band. But do they know that he has an older sister and anything about her?
A lot of celebrities have siblings that aren't necessarily famous, but become popular within the fandom and Gemma Anne Styles is one of those people. She was born in Evesham, Worcestershire, England, on December 3, 1990 to Anne Cox and Desmond Styles. Gemma grew up in Holmes Chapel, Cheshire with her parents and Harry, when he was born in 1994. She attended Holmes Chapel Comprehensive School as a child. Their parents got divorced when Gemma was 10 years old and in 2013, Anne remarried Robin Twist, giving the Styles children a step-father. Sadly, he passed away in 2017 from cancer.

10 Her Studies
Gemma graduated from Sheffield Hallam University in 2013, where she earned a first class honors degree in Science Education with a Qualified Teacher Status in Genetics. Harry would visit her a lot when One Direction was on break and would attend a lot of parties, probably because he didn't go to college. Back then, she was sporting redish hair and was just making her mark on the world and in the One Direction fandom.

6 Sunglasses Line
Through Baxter & Bonny, the 30 year old created a sunglasses line. She partnered up with Kenmark Eyewear and released five styles. She named the frames after songs in her favorite oldies playlist, where she imagines wearing each pair in a film that would fit perfectly with the soundtrack.

He has posted a lot of pictures of him and Gemma throughout the years, but not much else is known about him. He is also thirty years old and was born in England. They are pretty private with their relationship, occasionally posting photos and videos of them together.
4 She Is Vegetarian
In her teenage years, Styles was a vegetarian and didn't eat much except for pasta and cheese. In an article with Grazia Daily, Styles writes that eating meat has a bad impact on the environment and making small changes everyday can turn it into a positive impact. With her love for animals and wanting to save the environment, Styles decided to be vegetarian. Although not full vegan, she does eat vegan meals when there is no alternative. She even turned her brother onto not eating meat.
3 The Significance Of Gemma Styles' Tattoos
While her brother is known to be covered in tattoos, Gemma only has four. She has the letter "H" in morse code, for Harry, which she promised she would get a tattoo for him, since he has her name written on him in Hebrew. The writer also has a letter "A," which is thought of to be a tribute to her mother, Anne. She also has a robin bird and a palm tree. It is unclear what the latter is for, but the robin bird could be in honor of her late step-father.
2 She Is An Animal Lover
Perhaps one of the many reasons, Gemma is a vegetarian is because she loves animals. She has a cat named Olivia Pope, named after Kerry Washington's character in the show, Scandal. Olivia Pope first came into her family in 2015 and has been posted on her Instagram ever since. Although Styles is a cat lover through and through, she posted that she has been encountering a lot of really cute dogs lately. Maybe she'll add another addition to her family soon!
