Do you have the link to the Ben Winston interview where he talked about "very naked blonde popstar" in his kitchen with harry in the middle of the night? The original interview? It's GQ Australia i think but I can't find it. Also i think it was around the time he took her to his mother's house right? Or was it a different time
Hi, that's a great ask! thank you It is GQ Australia from May 2018, and it is not online but it is on eBay at the moment and you can read the quote in it, it isn't actually a direct quote of Ben's but it reads:
"Styles has known Winston for years, heeds his advice, trusts his advice from the outside, in. Styles even lived in his loft in Hampstead Health for a short period for time; providing a shelter away from the press and public at a time when the band were bigger than Coca-Cola. (There's a good story about Winston's wife bumping into a very naked, very blonde, very famous pop star making toast downstairs one morning if you ever get a chance to ask.)"
Also notice the article was 2018 and started and ended with 'folklore'
“We were talking with Harry Styles about what he was going to play and actually I had a slightly different suggestion at one point and he was like ‘No, no, As It Was is the hit, thats what I’m nominated for record and song and everything else for. That’s the one we’re gonna play.’”

benwinston: Love @NiallOfficial so much. And this song is so wonderful. HEAVEN is out tonight. It was an emotional night saying goodbye to one of our favourite guests. 1167 shows done, 29 shows to go
This type of tweet makes Harry look bad and gets more hate. Thanks again Ben. https://twitter.com/musicstruggles1/status/1622497533724446720?s=46&t=Z5zWaXmafNThGPF-dPWh3A
The fact that during Harry’s biggest solo career moment ever, the gp was forced the producer‘s name down their throats like he’s a celeb on his own, is the fame hungriest thing Ben Winston has managed to do in the last years.
He could’ve monitored the direction of the spinning stage instead of his social media. I’m so pissed off at this guy.
(Not even going into the implications of Harry’s album win. People latched onto that information immediately to question Harry’s win.)
