Zayn Malik Says He Handled That Yolanda Hadid Altercation ‘in the Best Way’
Zayn Malik is speaking out about the infamous confrontation between him and the mother of his former girlfriend, Gigi Hadid. Two years after pleading no contest to harassment charges over the alleged ordeal, the former One Direction member appeared on the Call Her Daddy podcast for what seemed like a quick PR cleanup ahead of the release of his hotly anticipated single “Love Like This.”
Speaking delicately about the subject, host Alex Cooper asked Malik if he had anything to say in response to his highly publicized fallout with the Hadid family. The 30-year-old singer was mostly vague about the incident, but still seemed bothered that it wasn’t kept private.
“If something happens in the family, I’d rather keep that between the family,” he said. “You don’t need a whole audience of people with opinions because it’s hard enough to manage between two.”
