In a recent podcast appearance, Zayn Malik candidly shared his thoughts on love and parenting, specifically regarding his relationship with ex-girlfriend Gigi Hadid. While he expressed a profound respect and love for her as the mother of their daughter, Khai, born in 2020, he raised eyebrows by questioning whether he was ever really in love with her. “I will always love Gigi,” he stated, but added, “I don’t think I was in love with her at that point.”
Malik’s reflections on love certainly didn’t stop there; he revealed that his understanding has evolved over time. He acknowledged that what he once thought was love may have actually been something more like lust. And as if that wasn’t enough to keep fans buzzing, Malik humorously recounted his experience of spoiling Khai with a staggering $700 payout for losing her first tooth, admitting the Tooth Fairy might need to rethink her budget next time. It’s clear that even in tricky co-parenting dynamics, Malik balances genuine affection and lightheartedness, keeping things interesting.
As he continues to navigate fame and fatherhood, it’s a relief to see celebrities sharing more of their authentic selves. How do you think Zayn’s reflections on love compare to your experiences?
