Gigi Hadid Kisses Bradley Cooper After Zayn Malik’s ‘Triggering’ Confession About Her
In a recent interview, Zayn Malik made some surprising comments about his relationship with Gigi Hadid. The pair have co-parented their daughter, Khai, since their breakup in 2021. Malik claimed he had never been “in love” with Hadid despite their lengthy relationship. She hasn’t commented on his remarks, instead stepping out on a date with Bradley Cooper.
Zayn Malik spoke about his relationship with Gigi Hadid in a recent interview
In a recent appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast, Malik said that while he will always have affection for Hadid, he doesn’t think he was ever in love with her.
“I don’t feel like it was love, and to be fair, just to say this on record, I will always love G, ’cause she’s the reason my child is, you know, on this earth and I have the utmost respect for her,” he told host Alex Cooper. “I will always love her but I don’t know if I was ever in love with her.”
Hadid has not commented on Malik’s take on their relationship, but she is reportedly not happy with him.
“Gigi is way beyond being hurt by anything Zayn says, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t triggering for her,” a source told In Touch. “She sees everything and did not appreciate him taking that shot at her.”
Still, the source said Hadid would “never give Zayn the satisfaction of saying anything directly in response.” Hadid wants to keep things cordial for the sake of their daughter.
“She’s not interested in getting in a big public fight with him,” the source said, adding, “She has her daughter to think of. She wants to keep things as cordial as possible for Khai’s sake.”
She recently stepped out with Bradley Cooper
On the same day that clips from Malik’s interview circulated, Hadid stepped out with Bradley Cooper in New York City. The couple has been dating since late 2023. After a lunch date in Manhattan, they kissed on the street before getting into a waiting car.
While Cooper and Hadid have largely kept their relationship private, they are reportedly considering marriage.
“Bradley asked Yolanda for Gigi’s hand in marriage,” a source told the Daily Mail. “He wants her to know how serious he is about Gigi and how he plans to build a solid family with her in New York.”
How long were Zayn Malik and Gigi Hadid together?
Hadid and Malik began their somewhat turbulent relationship in late 2015. They made headlines after breaking up in 2016, but got back together in a matter of days.
In 2018, Malik got a tattoo of Hadid’s eyes on his chest. The couple broke up again just months after this permanent tribute. Before long, however, it seemed that they were back together.
Hadid and Malik broke up again in early 2019. This time, they took a year off before rekindling their romance. She announced her pregnancy in the spring of 2020. They welcomed their daughter in September of that year.
In October 2021, rumors arose that Malik and Hadid’s mother, Yolanda, were involved in a physical altercation. The couple broke up shortly afterward. While they no longer have a romantic relationship, they reportedly work together well as co-parents.
