The 26-year old supermodel and the 28-year old former One Direction singer have reportedly broken up after nearly five years of an “on-off” relationship.
It’s not a happily ever after after all as Zayn Malik is reportedly separated with Gigi Hadid amidst the issue of an alleged argument with Yolanda Hadid.
It seems that the 26-year old supermodel and the 28-year old former One Direction singer have broken up after nearly five years of relationship.
“They are not together right now. They are both good parents though. They co-parent. Yolanda is of course very protective of Gigi. She wants the best for her daughter and grandchild,” a source told People.
Gigi’s representative further issued a statement: “Gigi is solely focused on the best for Khai. She asks for privacy during this time.”
Last Thursday, Malik released a statement following a TMZ report that Gigi's mother Yolanda was considering filing a police report against Malik for striking her, according to unnamed sources.
Malik told the outlet he "adamantly" denied Yolanda's "false allegations" that he struck her.
Then, in a lengthy statement shared on Twitter, Malik said he wanted to create “a place where private family matters aren‘t thrown on the world stage for all to poke and pick apart.”
“In an effort to protect that space for her I agreed to not contest claims arising from an argument I had with a family member of my partner’s who entered our home while my partner was away several weeks ago,” he said.
While it’s unclear what caused the altercation, both Zayn and Gigi mentioned their daughter in their respective statements regarding Yolanda’s allegations.
“Gigi is solely focused on the best for Khai,” a rep for the model told a magazine in an interview. “She asks for privacy during this time.”
Gigi and Zayn started dating back in November 2015 after they were photographed leaving Justin Bieber’s American Music Awards after-party together.
Malik denied the relationship at the start of 2016, but then she made an appearance in his “Pillowtalk” video and it was clear their chemistry was real. The following month, he confirmed that they were dating.
The couple welcomed their daughter Khai in September 2020 after five years of on-again-off-again dating.
