Styles proud of 'TOWIE' moment

Harry Styles says hearing One Direction's 'Little Things' being played on 'The Only Way is Essex' was the "proudest moment" of his career.

The 19-year-old singer – who has met Queen Elizabeth and performed at the London 2012 Olympics - was delighted to see the group's 2012 number one hit, which was penned by Ed Sheeran, used when Joey Essex proposed to Sam Faiers on Wednesday night's episode of the ITV2 reality show.

He tweeted:

Harry was alerted to the news by his army of Twitter followers, but many were shocked at him holding the moment in such high regard.

One wrote: "so the Olympics and meeting the queen was nothing lol (sic)"

Another user tweeted: "I seriously hope you're taking the p**s (sic)"

But one of his fans joked: "forget the proudest moment of your career, that's the proudest moment of your entire LIFE right there (sic)"

The tune proved to be a good luck charm for Joey – who popped the question during a romantic getaway in Dubai - as Sam accepted his proposal and the couple celebrated with an engagement party later in the episode.
