Zayn Malik Says He Was “Never in Love” With Gigi Hadid
By Alexus Mosley
Zayn Malik is opening up about his past relationship with Gigi Hadid, and his honesty is stirring up conversation online.
During a recent appearance on Call Her Daddy, the former One Direction star reflected on his on-and-off relationship with the supermodel, with whom he shares 5-year-old daughter Khai. While Zayn made it clear that he has deep love and respect for Gigi as the mother of his child, he admitted he isn’t sure he was ever truly “in love” with her.
“I will always love G, because she is the reason my child is on this Earth,” Zayn said. “I do love her a crazy amount, but I don’t think I was in love with her at that point.”
The singer added that if he had truly been in love, he believes he would have shown up as a better version of himself in the relationship, offering a rare moment of self-reflection that many fans are interpreting as growth, accountability, or emotional distance.
Zayn and Gigi’s relationship, which began in 2016, was one of the most high-profile celebrity romances of the late 2010s, marked by breakups, reconciliations, and eventually co-parenting their daughter after their split. While both have largely moved on, Zayn’s comments offer a candid glimpse into how he views love, relationships, and personal evolution today.
