An insider told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "Niall has been secretly seeing Zoe for a couple of months after he met her backstage.
"She's a Dubliner but is based in London to work on her modelling career. Zoe's traveled all over the UK to meet up with Niall on the band's tour.
"But the biggest sign he's really serious about her is that he introduced her to his whole family at his brother's wedding.
The Irish singer took his new partner to his brother Greg's wedding in his hometown - the first time he'd brought a girl back to Mullingar since his rise to fame.
The source added: "Zoe's the first girlfriend Niall has brought back to his hometown of Mullingar since making it big, so it was a big deal and the talk of his family at the wedding.
"Niall's protective of her as she's shy, but his family all really took a shine to Zoe."
